Re: new to blender and 3D

Hi there K
If I recall correctly, the Gus tutorial was written
back in the 2.2x times, and yes, the extrusion command
has changed a little since then. Back then, by
pressing E you would have an immediate extrusion of
the selected vertex, edge, face, or region selected,
and after extrusion, you would be in unconstrained
Drag mode. Now, when you press E, a menu will pop-up
asking about what to extrude (faces, region, ...) and
right after you make your selection, you will again be
in Drag mode, but now it will be constrained to the
region, face, edge... Normal direction.
For a similar behaviour for the extrusion used in gus'
tutorial, you should select E-->Region, then press
Escape (or mac's equivalent), and the press D for drag
mode.
Hope this helps
Regards.
