Interesting. Looks cool and reduces a lot of weight. Ive been a customer of Adco for 10 years now, and never had a problem. Steve does good work. Might try this.

Forgive my ignorance but if they are trying to save weight, why don't they just leave off all the radial or spiral fluting? From the looks of it, it doesn't look like it helps with structural integrity. I'm not an engineer so IDK. If you are trying to use it as a heat dissipator I can see the point. Someone chime in and explain how it works. All I know is that this will be a bitch to clean.
