Thanks Rick. I'd probably have to show what I did, but I did pretty much what the book says. I may not have the edges(from the insert edge loop tool) exactly at .001 mm, but he doesn't give that exact of a placement, so it to the best of what I saw.

when I click on some of those faces they act like there are other faces under it, and even when I click on one and delete it, the same thing occurs. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
