You obviously have never actually seen Calmini's products. If you were to side by side compair (for example) the UCA of both Calmini and AC you would think that the AC arms were made in shop class.
Here are the Calmini arms..

And here are the AC arms..

Which look to be better constructed to you? When I get these longer AC arms off I will get some detailed images showing you some of the questionable construction and such..
