    Beveling Issue

    posted to: Creating the Cartridge Slot

    I was doing good w the 3D model till I got to 12:00 mins completely messing everything up trying to follow the beveling steps. I don't think I can go back and I have a feeling I have to start everything over from scratch.https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RJQM43yspgqvoNnC15dEAhaIT-91qUVn?usp=share_link

      Do it, don't think about it, start over if you feel you need to. You'll see how the second or third time around you arrive faster and better to where you left off.

      Well Patrick ppatthevisionary ,

      Maybe it still can be saved in your case...

      There seems to be a rogue Edge here:

      Delete that and also try the good old combo:

      M > Merge > By Distance,

      followed by:

      SHIFT + N.

      (In that order; Merging Vertices might create inconsistent Normals!)

      If that doesn't fix things, please upload your .blend file and post a link.

      Yes it's not that bad, yet I still think a do over is immensely beneficial. You'll feel like Neo, developing the eye to see in code, but it's more like you can see the wireframe and the pitfalls in advance, you'll get to the finish line three times faster and you'll see where was it that you made a wrong turn. Then you can move on to another course and make other awesome stuff.
