ok, this is a box, with an extrusion on each side, it is 44 triangles, and the meshflow is pretty messy:


this is the same box, but rather than extruding, its actually 1 box, with another box going straight through it, so the model sections overlap. the mesh is a lot cleaner, and is almost half the count, at 24 triangles:

you know, I was going to do that.. but I figured the model would never be able to animate correctly... thanks though
