We built what suited the setups of the times and customers application, they were not, "one size fits all" and not only in vanilla. Compared to our contemporaries of the times, we had the broadest selection of designs, styles, sizes and curves ahead of anyone, period. With the right equipment and knowledge you build whatever is needed, the trick is knowing whats needed. Cheers.
