I would again like to express my fears about excessive absorption in a folded design, especially if as complex as the above design. If you buy Reflex, you can find good stepped shapes instead thus minimizing absorption: http://www.gearslutz.com/board/6732004-post3.html http://www.gearslutz.com/board/6732069-post5.html |
