Almost everything we used was plain old 6061 aluminum - the "standard" alloy everyone uses for everything. If a little more strength was needed, 7075 would usually do the trick.
- WildUtah 12y agoFunny that I've started to think of Apple's easily CNC'd aluminium as the standard instead of 6061. That Apple stuff is about as strong as wax, not even as tough as others' plastic shells. Sure looks good on my iPhone and MacBook, though. I'm glad to have 6061 on my bike instead.
