2) The bolts- while CADing them like this works, I would suggest using the bolted-connection generator under the "Design" tab on the ribbon. It's efficient and works really well. how to.
Good Luck!
Ahh, I wish I knew about bolted connections earlier, that is so much easier. I think I'll go ahead keep the existing connections and use bolted connections. After I'm done I'll replace the existing ones with bolted connections.

EDIT: Got the orange stuff removed!

Question: I remember in 2010 there was a little on the left side that I could pick out indivdual things I've done and modify/delete them, any idea where I can enable that in '11?
