Anyone ever done this?

Yeah $50.00 IS too much, however I am a single 43 year old kid with no responsibilities to speak of, and have more money than soldering abilities.  I also felt that at that price, you would not see many of these out there.  While I'm right so far, there are others that look cool, do essentially the same thing, and do not have that framwork underneath.  Only one thumb up on this one.
