RE: help with weight
The fixings in SW2007 SP2.1 come in as plain carbon steel and can be changed if you right click on the fixing in the tree and then go to open part.
Hope that helps.
RE: help with weight
If SW doesn't list the desire material your seeking through its defaults, you can enter the material density in the "Mass Properties" "Options" area. Select "Use custom settings" and key your desired density in the "Material Properties" field then hit ok.
