What I noticed most is that when you look at the 10020 by itself, it
looks pretty "correct".  Only when you put it up to an 8 wide version

I would never say that mine is better, just different in a more
prototypical kind of way:-)

Wow, your not kidding. 8 wide currently is more to 'scale' then the 6
wide... Maybe one day...
