Hi,
 
Sorry, my question is not clear. I want to plot the surface with user defined thickness. I mean I want to see thicker surface than default thickness.
 
With Regards,

	The thickness of the surface is 0. Or do you want to look from the side?
	
	Plot3D[x^5 y, {x, -1, 1}, {y, -1, 1}, PlotRange -> All,
	ViewPoint -> {0, -3, 0}, PlotPoints -> 40, Mesh -> False,
	AxesLabel -> {x, y,  TraditionalForm[x^5 y]}, ImageSize -> 400,
	BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1}];

	P.S.: I did not read your 2nd message before answering the first one.
