I was looking at the November 2012 edition of Australian Manufacturing Technology - is this a Cooper S caliper, scanned and then reproduced in titanium? I tried accurately drawing one of these in CAD for a TAFE project and it was a right pain!

Interesting article and a interesting magazine.
Would the calliper be fully functioning?
