extrude vs solidify for thickening planks

Hello,


this is my first post but I am excited to become active in the CG cookie community!


I have watched CG Cookie's other courses on the power of modifiers and how a non-destructive work flow is best. Would the solidify modifier work better at minute 13 when the treasure chest blanks are extruded? 


Thanks for all the amazing work your doing.

    The solidify modifer is a good option. I'm not sure either is "better" because eventually I'll be editing the bevels and thickness uniquely per board.  Both valid options - good thinking!
