did you delete the faces on the bottom of the box?

[SnaFuBAR]

looks like two seperate elements. did you target weld or anything??

laughing...i deleted the faces on the plane under and around the box then remade the faces to attach the box to the plane..i did not delete any faces on the box
snaf... i did not weld anything...which is why this is blowin my mind....it should be just like attaching bases to the ground :-\
im sure im just dong someting dumb and totally missing it

you need to delete the plane on the bottom of box, otherwise some edges will have 3 planes attached to them.
