The guy who built the one that is for sale really took the saying "a grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain't" to heart. Though I think he skipped the grinder and went straight for the paint. I know the kit is a reputable brand but with those welds I wouldn't be willing to pay more than the price of the kit. Beginner welds are perfectly fine but not when you put a price tag like that on what you have welded. Those pieces of tube look like they will fall off if you look at them wrong.
