Joining hand to wrist
looking for some help. I have modelled the hand from the Maya tutorial and I am trying to attach it to a wrist (or a simple square shape in this case). I've tried every option in Maya to get them to join, but I can't get them to do anything. I know there must be an easy way to do this, but I haven't a clue.
I'll attach a picture so you can see what I am trying to do.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me.

Under the Polygons menu, choose Combine. Now you should be able to merge vertices.

You will have to convert any non-poly geometry to polys via the Modify -> Convert menu.
