speaking of which, what are your thoughts on the stainless steel printed parts from shapeways? Apparently they are infused with 40% bronze. I have been wondering if they would be sufficient in strength and low weight for landing gear components.
No, I don't think so. Strength is OK, but density is very high.
Their aluminum is suitable though.
