hold on the alt key at the rectangular area then dragged it to the below just like the image that i showed. then i combined all the layer that have been created by clicking all the layers for the rectangular then clicked ctrl+E to merged all the layers and named it as slats 1 because i will create slats 2 after this. then duplicated the slats 1 and named it as slats 2. then i hided slats 1 and slats 2
