Similarly for balsa, your units should be kg/m3

Looking through other materials, I suspect this is true of a lot of them. All of your woods seem to be using incorrect units
I'm cleaning this up, but it's not as bad as it looks.
Tonight I repeated a code dive that I did 5 or 6 years ago, and also re-verified by creating a dummy entry, that no actual parsing of UnitsOfMeasure is done when a presets XML file is read. The numeric value is read in and is always assumed to be kg/m3, no matter what UnitsOfMeasure says in the
Good to know. The FreeCAD Rocket Workbench did not make that assumption, but it's not using the value either. At least not yet.
Fixed and pushed to master in 1.0.0.3
Most websites list the density at ~2.7 g/cm3 which is 2700 kg/m3
