Okay I couldn't resist and looked it up. Actually, this one (if it's the right one I'm looking at) says it's made to order in standard sizes, so it's not custom. And IMHO it's ugly, though not as bad as some have said. I know many people who would love it -- though they are not people who care much about accuracy. There are some really nice pieces on this site, so I would imagine these people are making a living making people what they want to buy, which is all right with me. I do wish they would say that it's not strictly accurate, which they do on some of their pieces.
