Actually I was thinking about the ring earlier and Platinum popped into my mind. Titanium was another possibility.These posts are Fiction.

Please NO platinum... My wedding ring is platinum, and even though it's only 5 years old, it looks like it is 50.Originally posted by DedEyeActually I was thinking about the ring earlier and Platinum popped into my mind. Titanium was another possibility.
Platinum is very soft (softer than gold) which is where it gets it's durability, it does not "scratch" but the metal gets pushed around easily. It is very easy to dent, ding and gouge.
Titanium would be an excellent choice. It is light and durable, as well as already being a "tactical" color.US Supreme Court Majority Opinion - D.C. v MillerComment

Platinum is actually about twice as hard as gold, but is still prone to scratches giving it a worn appearance. Too expensive for a tool in my opinion.
I like titanium but the problem is finding someone who can work with it. It oxidizes easily in air making it necessary to work with it in an anoxic environment. Point is it just might be hard to find a jeweler that has the ability to work with the material. If not titanium would be great.
If we are going exotic we could always do tungsten. Now that is definitely a hard metal and they are making rings with it.
Keep in mind that using a harder metal for the tool will result in more wear on the gun. I personally would rather the tool was the thing that wore out. For that reason I like anodized aluminum though for something cheap and effective.Last edited by kap; 01-02-2007, 12:53 PM.Comment
