    are you talking about the ODE's 450's? If they are a good copy, it could be some cheap fun - if they arent up to it though, their might be some sore consequenses. I guess I wouldnt be launching over a 100ft triple on my first outing!

    yeah i'd be checking the welding meticulously! A colleague of mine once traveled to china to look at some stainless steel vessels we were getting made over there (it was a very shit company i was working for at the time BTW), but the bloody chinese had no gear, and were literally making 10000L stainless tanks by hand - there were photos of them rolling the steel with a few guys by hand, another of a guy working some metal using a car tyre as his bench, and other photos of about 50 people working on the one tank, and to top it off the factory looked about as flash as a chicken house!
