Wow, thanks for posting the link.
I saw a pic of those on another site but thought they were old NOS sets.
Very cool

Are these near enough identical to the originals then ??

pickle · « **Reply #21 on:** April 11, 2008, 07:43 AM »

from what i remember they've been constructed using the same jig so it's the same goemetry as the original.....could be wrong though......wouldn't be the first time
