I want to extrude three cylinders from one. I don't want to create another cylinder mesh, so this way I can avoid clipping
Here's exactly what I want:

$\begingroup$ Why is deleting the edge loops in between the separate cylinders not an option? $\endgroup$ – metaphor_set Aug 1 '16 at 12:33

$\begingroup$ How many sides does your cylinder have? $\endgroup$ – CyberBurst Aug 1 '16 at 12:33

From 6 vertices for the base cylinder and 3 tentacles in the picture, you can assemble it in three parts :
- First assemble the extremity, extruding one vertex on two
- Extrude them (without moving)
- Alt+M to join them at center
- Then select more Ctrl+NumPad+
- And make the faces F
- Now select the three faces as the extremity
- Extrude them with Alt+E then "individual faces"
- Separate this faces a bit
- Now round them using Alt+ShiftS and move the mouse to the right and validate
- Then extrude again

$\begingroup$ use the 'select' menu, then 'select more or less' and chose 'more'. You can also just select the vertices with the mouse... oh and it is "ctrl"+"numPad+"... I did a mistake here $\endgroup$ – lemon Aug 1 '16 at 12:57
