Re: Autodesk Inventor 2011 help

If you have time, make the honeycomb material using a pattern. It takes a little practice, but its a good exercise and its not that difficult. It also makes for a really cool looking drawing.

But if you wanted to just go to the iproperties and change the material properties, its been awhile since I have done it (I have been using Solidworks lately) but I remember just typing in the density to get the correct weight. but its been a long time since I have done anything like that.
