Cody,

The only problem with a copper toroid is, that it needs regular repolishing 
to stay sharp.

Fact is, it doesn`t matter much, but in a situation where one wants to 
supply the extraordinary, copper is one step up over alluminum. Having it 
gold plated is another possibility. Brass would look good too.
