How can I add or insert an object or assy to an existing model tree in toolkit? I can delete items and change materials. Hopefully don't have to go back into my CAD apps and redo everything.

In the 3D Toolkit you can add new nodes to existing models. The simplest way to do this is to drag a file onto the 3D View. You can also Merge new files with an existing open file by using the 'File > Merge File' command. The new model/assembly will be placed in the existing model tree as a new node under the top node. You can them move it where every you want in the model tree.
