This may be outside of your effort zone, but I think you have the potential to take business from MD Juan. If you decided to set up a shop down there and offered global shipping I bet you could start taking real business away from MD Juan, especially considering all the problems we've heard about with their repro products.
Just a thought, but to reiterate everyone else - Great work! Very impressive.

It was only an objective criticism of some of their products, and mine is a hobby, but what is certain is that product quality will always be in line with its price.
To pass a rigid quality control obviously would require improving processes, including developing a design office where they take into account strict fidelity to the original, skilled labor used in production, or automate it .. all of this mean be out of competition for the final product price.
While this buy it now as it happens, we will have to forget any improvement expected from them.
Do not go ..., how to solve this?, The hinge has over 60 years ...that grinding: the hinge, or the gate?

And here? we apply more solder? easy

We like this ending?

Or just refuse to buy ...
