I need a little direction here.

I have Ejector Pin file set up in the design library. I want to bring a pin into the assembly and mate it into position. (up to here I am fine.)

Now, I want to save this as a new part in the mold assembly directory, give it a new name (for detail number), and then cut it to length without affecting the library part.

I have been doing this using the 'file, save as, references' and then assigning it to the new directory. I then close it, and use explorer to rename it.

Is there an easier way to bring it in, and then break it links to the library?

thanks for your help
