    How to make a Box
    by Tom aka Night4554

    Part 3
    I am going to show you four ways to make a box.  It will start with the most complicated (trust me it's easy) and move on to a three-click box.  This is the second simplest.

    1) Start Blender
    2) Left Click on the square you see so that it turns purple.
    3) You should see this now:

    4) Click TAB
    Now we are in EDIT MODE.  This is where you edit materials
    5) Press A
    This selects all the vertices. The points should turn yellow.
    If not then press A again to make them all yellow.
    6) Press X
    7) Confirm Erasing
    Now we have a clean slate to work with
    8)Place you mouse over the intersection two little gray lines out (pretend it's a graph and it would be 2,2)
    9) Hold control and press the left mouse button
    Move you mouse you should see a little yellow dot.  You have placed you first vertice
    10) Move your mouse 4 little gray lines down from your first vertice. (2,-2)
    11) Place another vertice.
    12) Move your mouse 4 little gray lines to the left of your second vertice. (-2,-2)
    13) Move your mouse 4 little gray lines to the top of your third vertice. (-2,2)
    You should have something that looks like this:

    Don't worry if your lines aren't straight.  Notice how the upper two vertices aren't
    joined. To join them we will create a line
    14) Press A to deselect all vertices.  They should all be purple.  If they are yellow press A
    again.
    15) To select the vertices we need press Right Mouse Button near one of the upper two
    vertices.
    16) Hold Shift and press the right mouse button near the second vertice.  You should have the upper two vertices in yellow
    16 1/2) Now Press F
    This creates a line between the two points
    17) Press Tab and then Tab again.
    This is Blender's UNDO button.  By pressing U you reload the data before you entered edit mode.  Tabbing in and out occasionally allows you to create a series of undo steps.
    You now have a rough square.
    This entire time you have been working in Top View
    Now we will move into side mode for a few seconds.
    18) Press 3 on your numberpad
    You MUST do this on your numberpad. (Also make sure NumLock is on).  Pressing just 3 will put you into your third layer (which you have nothing in so your screen will go blank).
    Correct:Incorrect:

    19) Press A to select all the vertices.
    20) Press F to make sure the square is solid
    21)Now press E and drag up two notches to create your box then click
    22) Hold down the middle mouse button and drag (or ALT and left mouse button) to view your completed box like this:

    You now have your very second box!!!
