I was talking o my Dad tonight about materials for the G7 mic body. My intial intention was to build the mic from brass like the site suggests, but my Dad was suggesting other materials such as Stainless steel and Aluminum.
Will these work, and offer the same RF rejection characteristics as t Brass? I was going to do Nickel plated Brass, but the thought of anodized aluminum is actually sparking my interest, as well as chrome and polished stainless.
My Dad get's prettyb into stuff like this, and really enjoys making things look good. He is very experineced machining parts and milling metal so were pretty much looking for the most functional, AND best looking options. Aluminum would be extra light too, but I wonder if it wouldn't be more prone to body resonance.
As per my other thread we are designing the unit so that the body and capsules will be interchangable (removable head).
