Was tempted by a pair of Bennett pro’s recently, needing a good clean up but with potential as they appeared to be the add Trak!
See finished and beforehand!

nice work, ive only ever owned one pair of bennetts and the baseplates had the usual cracks, at least with the metal ones you dont get that problem. i think there were around 4 diff revisions to the plastic ones before they gave up and switched to metal
