Mickmate's work, that I have seen, is typically in the impressive category. I presume your comments about explaining the build quality are referring to someone else?

It seems that there are a number of club cobra members that are rather unhappy with Mickmate.

At any point in time there are always a number of members unhappy with somebody about something. I've almost been kicked off of this place any number of times.

I would not be counted as one of those numbers.

The build quality in the photos is not something I would anticipate coming from Mickmate. It looks more like a well intentioned but unskilled enthusiast enjoying his first build experience on a budget and cutting corners to stay inside the budgetary constraints he has placed upon himself.

Go through my build history and I am sure you will change your mind.
