It sounds like you may have the clutch push rod misaligned.  Be sure it goes into the lever and pushes freely against the piston set.

I bled the slave cylinder and now with the air out I can't move the lever. I must have something wrong in the clutch.

Bleeding the slave cylinder would involve releasing the bleed screw down
there and removing the master cylinder top to put in more fluid... did
you take more stuff than that apart?
