It would be great to see a few more competitors using Onshape.

I thought about it from time to time... But I collapse under pressure

Pretty sure you'd crush it, John!

I did one of the sample models for funsies and my issue was that it's not super easy to set a part density, so the mass wasn't right even though I set the material to what they said. I'm thinking about trying to write a quick FS to manually input density, then it would be a breeze.

I already had a tootall material library at one point. Wonder if it's still there..

I wanna see @steve_shubin wreck them with the tablet version..

Oh my gosh

I collapse WITHOUT pressure !!

Anyone of you could beat me BIG TIME

I agree with Evan. John could crush it. We know his prowess at using the program

But if John has thrown in the towel, then surely Evan should give it a shot. After all, It’s not as if Evan isn’t one of the smartest guys using Onshape

And what about Wayne ?

Sorry guys. Wish I could help, but my knees would wobble like Barney Fife’s if he saw a ghost.

Oh here it is:

TooTallToby Material | TTT Material (onshape.com)
for anyone who wants it.

EvanReese

I just realized you can just set a custom material manually in the normal Assign material dialogue. How long has that been there?

john_mcclary

For a year or two I believe.

But if you want to compete in TTT then you will want to make a custom library just for it. He tells you what densities to use and what materials he uses, which is what's listed above.

EvanReese

I see what you mean. I'd have to be switching my document units a bunch, but the library just works.
