In reading this thread and all of the previous ones on the subject, it seems to me that there are several types of builders, if you will...

1. Performance & Asthetics
2. Asthetics
3. Performance

There are players who aren't necessarily concerned with look as they are the "playability" of the box, and there are those who are more interested in the beauty of the box. I myself like a middle of the road box, looks with perfomance !

I look at the whole thing as pride in workmanship.

Cest tout!!

Very Nice J. !! Very Nice !
