I am having trouble creating my Notch.

posted to: Outlining the Shape

It seems I end up creating bevels for each individual vertices., they are separate but created at the same time. This is not what I want. I attempted several times to follow the tutor but couldn't see how he added the vertices to bevel. I wasn't able t see his 'scroll wheel' move up once.  My scroll wheel is hypersensitive or something.   Can you tell me where to review in the fundamentals?  the pics is where my project is now.

    You can try and watch the lessons a couple of times. We have all needed to watch things one or two times before we get it or realize we missed a step.

    Yes, like Omar said!

    Also, you need to be in Edit Mode for this. 

    And as a side note, be careful, because you not only have Vertex Snapping on, but also Proportional Editing! That might mess up your modeling!

    Ok thanks. That may be why things are kind of weird to me. I figured I must have activated a few tools by accident. I will check on Vertex Snapping and Proportional Editing. Yes, I also realize I need to be in Edit Mode, but when I took that Pic in Edit Mode nothing was highlighted, so I reverted back to taking the pic in Object mode. 

    Despite a family member dealing with pancreatic and liver cancer, I realize I need to work on my Blender project every day, in order to keep my mind actively building its Blender knowledge and skill. Thanks
