It was often discussed at the forum that WebGL line primitives can’t have a line width \> 1. So you need a special wide line implementation based on triangles for this feature request: [EdgesGeometry with 3MF model - JSFiddle - Code Playground](https://jsfiddle.net/5qv4Lmog/1/)

BTW: Never modify an object hierarchy when processing it with `traverse()`. This can easily lead to an endless recursive behavior that breaks apps.
