Perfect synopsis, sir.
It is just alarming (or sad, really) that there are no mid-range $ easily available MTO makers anymore. I would gladly give Alden the extra 200 bucks for a MTO, and know that'd come out right. I will be stepping up to Vass soon, but through a proxy, and, even then, there may be "changes" to my design.

Roguls, I don't know if they're to your taste, but I've done several Tricker's MTO's through The Shoe Healer that have been spot on.
