The GERMNAN grill is fragile. It's made of brittle plastic. The RSA grill is made of thin plastic, but is very flexible... technically you'd have to call it flimsy, but it's not junk... you might be able to twist the ends 180º relative to one another. Probably polyethylene or polypropylene. It certainly won't break, even when a rock hits it... unlike the styrtene German grill. -- Andrew Grebneff Dunedin New Zealand Fossil preparator <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Seashell, Macintosh, VW/Toyota van nut
