> How can I merge these 120 operations into one?

Have you tried just wrapping the 120 intermediate edits into a single operation ?

You can define a block form method within your extension submodule to simplify wrapping operations:

```ruby
def wrap_as(op_name)
  model = Sketchup.active_model
  model.start_operation(op_name, true)
    #
    yield model model.active_entities model.selection
    #
  model.commit_operation
rescue => error
  puts error.inspect
  model.abort_operation
end

```
