He did not remake the wheel, he simply made it better than anyone else. MRF should be getting praise and respect for making such quality products for our platform.

Malek haters will be haters, hope you take it with a grain of salt and continue making top shelf products.

Better materials? Who's to say the "Joe Blow" shop doesn't have access to the same materials Malek can get? Same with the welds. If the person is well versed in the trade and takes their profession seriously, who's to say their welds won't be as good? How about if they use a robotic controlled TIG welder? Will the welds not be at least of the same quality?

I'm not hating on Malek or his products at all, I'm just pointing out that other people can access the same materials and equipment that Malek most likely has. The difference lies in the R&D like you mentioned.
