Please confirm that you have a part open when it's grayed out.
It happens when I open a new part file. If all I do is make a single line shouldn't I be able to make it a structural part?Quote:

I just confirmed the sketch needs to be closed, otherwise the weldment stuff is grayed out.
William, I'll see if that works. Thanks!
I use weldments quite often.
I started my fuselage drawing with a 3D sketch. I then insert structural elements.
You will find that you have to build files for all the structural elements you want to use. When you are ready for that step post a note and I or someone will explain how to do that. It is fairly simple but will take some hunting for the directories where every thing is located.
