However... It's not doing anything --even when I stack it to be the first modifier
Tried both suggestions.. no change. However then... I noticed I had the cartridge visibility turned off. Oops. But now when I turn that on things get even more wonky. So must have been an accident, slip of the hand... bc (arrrgh) on closer inspection I see the Cartridge and the Console are exact duplicates --just one console has the cartridge and one console no cartridge. Making matters worse. The arrows, circle were added to the no console with no cartridge --So I guess I have to delete the console with no cartridge, backtrack and redo the arrows, circle. And THEN come back to address this smooth shading.
