I am currently modeling something and to do what I need it to do I have to take a group of faces and make and edge loop around the inside of all of them. I am not quite sure how to do it or if it can even be done. I am trying to stay away from the Multi-Cut tool for this just to make it easier to replicate on the other side of the prop? Does anyone know how this could be done? I tried extruding inwards but it did not work how I wanted it to.

    It's difficult to understand what youre trying to do without an image to see. If you are trying to add an edgeloop inside each of your faces you can (Edit Mesh/uncheck "Keep Faces Together") and do an extrude. Then select any of the 3 axis boxes to activate the center box and scale it down. This will create uniform inner edgeloops.

    @Michael_Ingrassia Thanks! I would have provided an image but currently I can't access my computer. I do think you answered my question and I will try that method when I get home! If not I will make sure to attach an image of what I have in mind.
