Adam....if you are trying to make then connectted to the original object you are going to have to extrude the polygons making up the set of verts


also....my model went completely gray after i accidentally pressed something. What did i hit?

If I have these kind of situations, usualy save the scenes and materials in another location and reinstall the product. Then put them back.

you need to select the polys/faces and then shift drag those to get new object with similar shape

This happens sometimes when you make it transparent by hitting alt+x. try this to make the object opaque again

Second option might be that the object has frozen. right click on viewport anywhere and choose unfreeze all
