The last three posts of this thread pose similar questions and comments. Left unanswered to curious minds.

I do like the triangular and circular cutouts but it seems like too much was taken out.

Is there an arm?

How much does it weigh?

Very interesting.
Their triangular pattern is very strong. Even with pocketing, the pattern plus the fact that it is quarter-inch 6061 allows their frame to be very rigid and strong. It will not "crumple."
