I don't mean to sound like a hag, but this system looks like it would work out really well. For someone just starting out with a frame, this would be a dream. Why not give them a chance?! Is't that what this country is founded on?
Sorry if I sound like I'm on a soapbox.
Merry Christmas to all.
Hurray...I applaud you...you beat me to it...but sure this is NO Gammill....but how do you think they got started??? Whom ever took the time to perfect this little system did so to make something THEY could easily afford and learn to use....I think it is awesome!
