How do I copy an object without copying the weights? I have a man I am making clothes for.  when I copy his upper body to build a shirt the weight painting for the armature gets copied along with the object but I don't want it to and I can't seem to erase all the weight painting from the copied object.  I was wondering if I could either copy object without weights somehow, or remove all weights from a object somehow.  Either one would work, thanks!
I figured out the answer. I had to remove the armature modifier from the mesh. I found that out here, http://blenderartists.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-235499.html
