Hi jayr,

Right click MM icon to bring up settings in Panels stack. Try adjusting offset & weld distance.

HTH,

Steve

Also the new mirror modeler is much more forgiving and you can just move the two faces together and they will automatically merge once the verts are within the weld tolerance.


The cool advantage to this approach is you can mirror around holes. ;)
