I love the typhus profile. No subtlety about it at all. It's just like "hey look at me, I'm massive, Your going a long way pal"
 Half the mental job done if you walk out with that steep a spine.

On your FB page it says that you were waiting for it to come back from Grays and another to come fom Newbery.

Do you do work yourself or simply a middle man?

If you never said it was refurb then it would have become a bit harder to tell whether its brand new or refurb.

Great work though

It's the definite descendent of the twin scoop and Dynadrive. And when you get a big one it has a huge middle... Checked drives are easy fours...
