I thought about that, but I can't legally bring my frame to the shop up here. Permit doesn't cover that. I have dug out a bit with a drum in my dremel. As for quality, this was my first frame up build so I have no experience with other makes. I will say that it was a little rough in a few spots, mostly where there was over lap from different cutters not blending. The checkering is great, overall I'm pleased with it. If I build another one I will order the same frame.
