        Hi Simon,

        This is a general question. If they are the same, what would be the reason to copy those?

        In short, Points are the basic for Polygons. Points are related to the object axis.

        Tools to copy are, of course, Cmd-C and then CMD-V, while the copy needs the source object to be active, and for CMD-V the receiving object.

        In the moment the Polygons are pasted, they are not connected. If they fit, then the Mesh> Remove> Optimize is the option to turn point siting on or very close to each other into one point. Which means the mesh is connected. Using a Subdivision Surface parent for a moment, often, if the operation was successful.

        The Weld function can help in single pairing options.

        Sharing a C4D is more helpful to answer, as I can see more detailed what is needed.

        Cheers
