See here is a later version which works just as well, but has much thinner and flimsier (more easily bent) bows and the wide flat strips of aluminim sheet metal feedlines. There is also an intermediate production which has the sturdier thicker bows and sturdier thicker flat strip feedlines.

Characteristic of these flimsier models is that the tips get bent and when you try to bend them back out, they leave little crinkles and dimples in the sheet metal, so you can see where they have been bent. On this one, the lower right corner of the lower right bowtie whisker.
