Polygon Extrude Lesson 01

The Extrude tool is one of the most important modeling tools in your arsenal. Here I will give you an intro to the basic use and understanding of it.

The First Step is to create a Polygon cube (or any polygonal shape), Make sure you are on your
Polygon menu. Then go ahead and create your shape:





Next Create a curve, point snap its pivot point to the end of the curve by:
1) pressing insert on your keyboard
2) press and hold " C " and place your pivot point at the beginning of the curve.
3) press insert again to unlock your pivot.

now select your curve, right click on the cube select FACE and now press and hold "V" and point snap your curve to the center face.

Select your curve then right click on the cube and select FACE then Extrude, make sure the "extrude along curve" option is turned on. You can always check your input settings by checking the history in the attribute editor. Select your object and press "CONTROL + A"
