SSInc. should have tossed in an extra accessory and called the new Mark 7 a Mark 8 or a Mark VIII.

Some would say Mark 6 or Mark VI! Not I! Pretty thin distinction between shaping and routing though. And then there is the 'fact' they can both be done on a 5/V.robinson46176 wrote:SSInc. should have tossed in an extra accessory and called the new Mark 7 a Mark 8 or a Mark VIII.
