In blender - I have a mesh finished, but I need to add a moving object, but I already made a mesh, and I need a hole EXACTLY the size too, so I need to get the vertices where I want the moving part to be, and turn it into it's own mesh that I can animate, kind of like adding a new object with the Add menu.

Edit: this was solved by Allen Simpson, Apparently I just have to press P.

Hello, what you mean exactly by turning some vertices into their own mesh? – moonboots Jan 06 '22 at 17:26
@moonboots I updated the original post, it should be more clear now. – DiamondUp Jan 06 '22 at 17:30
Do you mean duplicating the vertices and Separate By (P) -> Selection? – Allen Simpson Jan 06 '22 at 17:42
@Allen Simpson Yes!! Exactly! Thanks a lot!! – DiamondUp Jan 06 '22 at 17:43
I'll try to find a duplicate to link this to, I think your title is good for search results. – Allen Simpson Jan 06 '22 at 17:46
