A good starter

By: Rocket_starship (Hammonton, NJ)

This is a good starter kit but not as good as the ones I've used in the past. The plastic is cheap and breaks easy, plus the assembly is a little hard thus breaking plastic. If I could do it again I would go with the ports pad E which holds both 1/4 & starter rods.
