Our design is an exact replica of the original anodized aluminum parts which Atari used in their early machines. This includes all three versions: short aluminum, short black, tall black. All three of our versions are made from machined aluminum stock, tapped to exact spec, polished and anodized. Both the short and tall black cones are hard black anodized. Hard black anodizing offers an additional level of coating which is not likely to "rub off" as normal anodizing is prone to. In other words, these are quality parts with a tough, sleek finish. Compared to NOS anodized counterparts, ours are actually better looking. Design was very simple and based on original Atari engineering drawings and having NOS parts in hand to compare with. These are aluminum parts and are not prone to abuse issues that the plastic counterparts are well known for. These will not melt or crack. There are no better cones available. Read what one of my satisfied customers has to say: "they are of wonderful quality...these are great...they are much better than the plastic ones that basically crack every time you try to take them off or tighten them...very very nice...and I'm sure they will last forever...I'm sure I'll be ordering them again when I run out...I think I'm going to replace all my plastic ones with these to ensure they won't crack..." and another - Hi Art,
Received the cones, they look superb!
Thanks, |
