I second that, and I gaurantee you 95% of anyone whose even remotely been up to speed with sport and scale hydroplane building/racing the past few years will as well.

The laser cutting is grade A quality and extremely precise, fitment is always superb. Mike has integrated hundreds of Newton plans into CAD, while incorporating better ride surfaces with the more popular kits so they more accustomed to current power systems (especially FE). Also, the kits have several intuitive building/engineering features that TREMENDOUSLY increase the convenience and labor in assembly, like interlocking toy tabs, laser etched numbers and glue lines (no need for instructions with these!), and also aids in a square, straight hull. As a matter of fact, you can view practically all of Mike's builds on his photobucket (heres a link to a T6 he built for a friend: http://s42.photobucket.com/user/spoo...?sort=3&page=1), and as beautiful as his scales are, hes never even used a jig for any of them!!

His scale kits aren't 100% complete, they are just the internal framing and some bottom sheeting. His extreme series kits though are more complete, theyll usually include alot of the bottom floor pans and canard/wing templates, cockpit liners, etc. to aid with the more complex and difficult sections of the hull. But if you just do a little research, youll realize the difference between getting a kit that in theory would be 100% "complete" vs what he offers really isnt that much extra work. If I were you, I would just give Mike a call, his number is listed on his website. Hes always open to discussion and is very helpful. That way you can talk about which boat you want to build and what else you need from other suppliers potentially. He can get the kit to you pretty darn fast too despite not having an actual laser CNC in house. But I just spoke with Mike a few days ago (I ordered a T4 kit on the 29th last month) and his laser guy is going down for about 7-10 days for maintenance.

Good luck!
