CLOTHREYES TUTORIAL Part 3 -- Thicken edges by Dollpartz PAGE 2 1,2,3

	THICKEN EDGES inner part
	Re-select the outside 7 edges ... you can click on them individually while holding down the Ctrl key, or try grabbing the area in the select box and removing ones you don't want after. See the two views below. Note how I've squeezed the edges in the RIGHT view in a bit ... I mean I scaled them inward, XY axis. Don't use SQUEEZE!
	Nudge edges in back view inward so that they line up with the sleeve end.
	Perspective view below. I'll be flipping views to illustrate cuz when I am moving stuff in the back view (or whatever view showing the sleeve in 2 dimensions), I often watch what happens in the perspective view (sometimes in dismay ... heh).
	Next, keeping the same edges selected, extrude once more, and scale it narrower a tiny bit. Doesn't have to be much. Partly I do it to ensure the polys face a certain way altho off the top of my head I dunno for sure how they would face if I didn't do it! Probably would be fine. At any rate, by slanting them slightly inward, I know how they are slanted, so when i do anything with them in the future, I know where I am at. Don't be too concerned if the polys intersect arm inside the sleeve, it's no big deal cuz you can't really see inside the sleeve.
	Now slide the edges inward, inside the sleeve, as shown. You should set the view as wireframe as I did, so you can see how far you go backwards inside the sleeve.
	Ya, this is what it looks like in the perspective view, you can see how inner polys face. You can think of the end of the sleeve as a rim.
