http://masten-space.com/blog/?p=146 He hasn't posted for a while, so it's over 5300 words. Do you guys prefer shorter, more frequent posts, or the monthly omnibus post? |

Personally, I prefer shorter, more frequent posts. It's great to now get a detailed update, because so much has changed since the last update, but I tend to keep checking your website daily. Even if the last one was weeks ago!  _________________ For every complex problem there is a solution that is clear, simple, and wrong. - Henry Louis Mencken |

Posted on: Fri May 30, 2008 11:08 pm Awesome update there!
Just out of curiosity you guys say you have switched from copper chambers to another alloy, any chance of knowing what your new chambers are machined from? Iain ------------------------- http://kiwi2space.blogspot.com |

Posted on: Fri May 30, 2008 11:17 pm It's another copper alloy, I'm not sure which one. It's a tradeoff between thermal behavior and machinability; there are a variety of alloys that can be made to work.
A significant part of it is just whether your machine shop will work with whatever alloy. Some will simply say that it's not worth the hassle to work on some alloys. |
