The following shows an example of a surface made of point coordinates at half thickness distance on each side of surface along  normal.How to get a table of these coordinates on which it is based for any surface?

ParametricPlot3D[{u Cos[v], v, u Sin[v]}, {u, -1, 1}, {v, 0,1.5 Pi}, PlotStyle -> Thickness[.4], Axes -> None, Boxed -> False]
