Zitat von »SNTmods«
I am very interested in getting one of these Special Edition Aquatubes. Is it still available and if so, at what cost? My distributor doesnt have any pricing on it.

It's isn't available and will not be produced again because there were several problems...
For example: the tool-head(?) broken off several times :-/
Please don't shoot me for ressurecting this old thread. :-X
You say the tool head broke off several times? Copper is difficult to machine with normal tools because it tends to be gummy. It takes a certain rake or cutting angle of the tool to work properly. Standard indexable insert technology generally doesn't work well because the material builds up on the tool point and breaks the tool. So if this was the problem then would you be willing to produce this again if the right tooling was available?

I don't know if this really was the problem, but how is it, the there aren't problems with the copper while producing Cuplexs/Twinplexs - they're made out of a copper-block, too :

Milling is a different issue due to tool clearance allowing the chips to get out of the way. Turning tools, especially ID boring operations, get tricky because the tool is in the cut continously till the machine moves out of the cut. An end or face mill only cuts a few .001" per tooth and moves in and out of the cut very fast.

true, but i'm sure they could contract the casting to a professional foundry, and do it as a large batch, thus keeping costs down!
i'm sure there's lot of people who would pay a little extra for one of these Aquatubes!
