I used the Curves and Arches tut from that link, when I do my "invert endcap" I just got a lil box at the end of each on the bottom, I don't get the endcap like he does... I did the tutorial exact like him yet it turned out wrong :( well atleast I think I did, cause I tried the thingy like 4 times :( someone please help

Did you rotated the End Cap before u did Inverted Endcap? In some angles the it won't give the end cap an inverted end cap. So first make an End Cap, then give it a inverted end cap after that you can rotate it like how you want.
Also be sure, the End Cap has to be hightlighted before you do the inverted one.

I think this was your prob

Rotate the whole thing 90 degrees and then do the end caps. It wont work unless you use the same directions you see in the video. After you are done you can rotate it to where you like.

make a new patch mesh and try again. You may want to use the "u" key to clean up any excess textures first. Too many textures on hand will crash radiant.
