[QUOTE="Tzs503gp, post: 1057915, member: 19443"] I understand. What I was trying to illustrate in my last two posts was 1. That the conductor need not be the structural member. 2. The conductor does not need to be any larger than necessary to accomplish its purpose. You need not rule out copper for the conductor if you design carefully. Of course, this implies using at least two materials for the finished post. You can select a non conductive material which is easy to machine as the structural member, and incorporate a simple copper element to do the conducting. As an aside, have you considered what might happen if you accidentally short out the binding post nuts on your design while an amplifier is supplying current? [/QUOTE]
