Cubit has four types of aluminum (upper left), copper (upper right), tungsten (lower left), and titanium (lower right). By the way, tungsten is a very heavy metal, Cubit of 1.5 inch (38.1 mm) on one side weighs as much as 1 kg. Titanium is sturdy like a nail, and while its mass is half that of steel, it has tensile strength over steel. There are few metals with properties similar to titanium. Aluminum is very light and the main metal used in modern life. It goes without saying that copper is a useful metal.


To beautifully decorate Cubit, use a special stand of aluminum or Nara wood and place Cubit side by side and support it with one vertex.

You can put an accent on the desk or the like and make it a story of the conversation.


Cubit with 1 side 1 inch (25.4 mm) and 1.5 inch (38.1 mm) on one side is metal-processed, atomic number · elemental symbol · atomic weight is engraved.


To increase the quality and reduce shipping costs Cubit said it will manufacture in 100% America. Tungsten and aluminum processing is "NadcapIt is done by a certified aerospace vendor.
