What advantages does the 7075 Skyva have over the 6061 Skyva? Stuck in between them.

7075 is a little denser, stronger but they’re the same shape so also heavier.

Personally, I’d prefer the 6061 for the weight.

The 7075 plays the most differently of all the Skyvas IMO … i have plastic, delrin, 6061 and 7075

The 7075 Skyva looks insipid to me. Such uninspired anodisation.
