How Hanso helped save my butt today

Slightly off topic, I am considering a Reband in the coming months. Are you happy with it and how did you find the installation? A few people have claimed it was a really tight fit.
Some have ALSO said the fabrication can be a bit hit and miss and not up to CES standard. Also the heat shield is very expensive and not a great solution. Maybe I'm biased, I have a CES.

As far vas I am aware Neville LUSH helped design it, but has nothing to do with its fabrication or sale besides offering it along with CES and other systems through his workshop.
 
I am also looking at the CES and Paul Bryant's Viking. Decisions, decisions.... Nice to have some great choices though.
