Hi ulisses,

re:
> Maybe cutting the object in half?

Almost, I'd probably try cutting the object into 3 pieces. Draw in 2 cutting lines in the top view and use them as the cutting objects in boolean difference to cut your object into 3 separate pieces.

Move the left piece over to the end location you need, and then use Scale1d to stretch the middle part out to meet it.

If you need a demo please post your .3dm model file or e-mail it to me at moi@moi3d.com if you want to keep it private.
