As the title says. This seems to be getting rave reviews. And at £2200 inc. the arm it looks like exceptional value.
3 days ago they released a dedicated power supply for the DC motor so that should bump it up another notch in it's performance.
Any views would be interesting.

It's not exactly what you would call classically beautiful, and it's made from bits that appear to have been variously found on the golf course, out the back of an archery shop and at B&Q. But here's the thing, they actually sound bloody amazing.

I'm not sure how much of that is just low expectations based on the somewhat Heath Robinson appearance and how much is actual performance. One of the guys brought one to Flat-p's bake off last year and it sounded bloody great- surprise of the day. Definitely not outclassed by any of the other decks on show that day.

If it wasn't so fugly I'd have one.

It times well, has great drive, it is tonally balanced, seems to achieve low tracing error and works with almost any cart.

If you are looking for one there's one for sale over on Pinkfish at the minute for about £1450.
