This is a short video for a solution I found to trigger ideas.
There must be a more efficient way to do the same. Maybe you can find out what is better or even create a script out of it to make procedures even faster.
JJonathan Lampel Can you create a script out of it that you can make it as one operation? I would buy it.
That's all I could find with my limited knowledge.
I was able to extrude at a perfect angle right between the X and Y axis.
So what do you think?
ROFL!
The Cady normal. If only I could create a script out of it to make this into one operation. Jonathan can do this for sure.
What do you mean I'm a survivor? It's true. You don't even know me.
Well, it's a trait of survivors to make about a creative solution from odd problems, your brain gets into resourceful mode instead of trowing the towel and calling it quits, your survival depends on it. I believe you have a better chance of developing this ability when you grow up in harsh environments and it's the only way to thrive.

Like Omar already said, it is great that you find solutions like this yourself! And it's definitely a valid way, because it gets you the result you want.
There are many cases like this and each has its own 'easiest' solution, so making this into a script will probably not be worth it.
In this specific case, for instance, you could select that Edge Loop and press F to fill in a Face, that you can then simply move along its Normal or Extrude. Delete the Face when ready.
