Materials Database

Materials Database

(OP)
Does anyone know where I can find a readymade materials database for Solidworks?  It would be a lot easier than making my own with the clunky interface they already have.

matweb is a good source.
Email me at my site and I can send you one I created a while back.

CorBlimeyLimey and ctopher:  That's funny, I looked some more on my own after I posted and found that exact site.  However, you have to pay for the ability to export their data to Solidworks.  I was kinda hoping to find something for free.
