Hello,

 

Has anyone added Tungsten to the material library?

 

If so could they explain how they did it please.

 

Or how to do it, never added a new materiel before.

 

Thanks,

 

Thomas.

This should get you started. (see attached)

I will make a video later if this doesn't help.

I think that maybe TFI CAD Tips already has a video.

 

I would create a Custom library

then Categories within that library (Steel, Aluminum, Plastic...)

Copy an existing similar material from the Inventor or Autodesk library into your new custom library.

Edit as needed.

Thank you!
