Is the part about "set smooth" doing angles >= 90 still relevant (2.46)? I always get sharp edges there, and was scouring the web for a loophole.

This is great. I remember this used to frustrate me when I was new to Blender and took me forever to figure out -I wish this tutorial were around when I was a n00b. And it's very thorough -Great job

You can also make sharp edges with one smoothing group by separating faces and only rejoining those that would not make the seam. This method will also work across most other modeling aps too!

Hah… right… I understand the edge split thing now! that's great… I had no idea it did that, and I wanted something like it rather badly ;)
