[QUOTE="Feandil, post: 1493812, member: 558570"] casting it out of aluminum is far cheaper than casting it out of steel... the basket is actually functional being the way it is though.... it provides extremely low surface area for the back wave cutting down on cone reflections... and using steel means it's far far far stronger than aluminum either way is fine by me.... casting aluminum is a FAR quicker process than casting in steel... only problem is if you do a straight spoke the motor just won't look right unless you add things like heatsinks and such ..... can always go from the $15 each N42 magnet to a $1 each 5.5" OD ferrite... and lose about 80% of the magnetic strength [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] Like I said before at CAF... the magnet on the Omega is stronger than ALL of the magnets used on each gap of the Adire parthenon [/QUOTE]
