Ctopher's Material Database
Ctopher's Material Database
(OP)
The new Ctopher's Material Database is now available for download from my site and from SolidWorks Legion. Two versions are available, one for SolidWorks 2008...one for SolidWorks 2007 and older. Some 2008 materials had conflicts with older versions, so they were split up.
Special thanks to Matt (fcsuper) for his help and others for their material data contributions.![[thumbsup2] thumbsup2](https://www.tipmaster.com/images/thumbsup2.gif)
Thanks, and have fun!

RE: Ctopher's Material Database
I just realized after reading my post 20 times, it read like there are two separate files...one in my site and one in the Legion site. They are both the same downloadable files.
Sorry.
Thank you.

The one thing I'd like to see them do is provide the proper names for materials, and give us the option to display the names in CAPS for drawings so we can use the data raw instead of having to retype it and lose the parametrics.

Now if I could get RealView finishes that look like what I'm used to seeing like polyurethane with runs and cat hair in it or over cooked anodized aluminum....

Dan,
That would be too easy!
Harold,
For a price, I think we can come up with something. I have cats, so it wouldn't be too hard.
Thanks guys.

Depends on the material. Maybe 70/30?
Most through the material editor. Some properties are not available to add in the editor, then SW comes back asking for more info. So, it has to be changed manually.
