NEVER USE THE CLIPPING TOOL!
It causes errors / problems / leaks / bad cookies.

Umm, what? I think you mean the carve tool. The clipping tool is an amazing thing (although I prefer the vertex tool better).

Be a man and use the block and vertex tools like a man is what i say!

Quote from Remmiz on October 20, 2008, 5:34 pm

Because the vertex tool can turn a single brush into two.

but when i read some tuts it says like this

"You will need two prop_dynamic entities, one for each of the following world models:

* models/props/pedestal_base_reference.mdl. Name it stand_bottom_model and set its "disableshadows" keyvalue to 1.
* models/props/pedestal_center_reference.mdl. Name it stand_top_model. "
