Did you know that TSP copied the Nick Williams design? It is a Nick Williams tb with their name on it. They just cnc'd his tb. So I would only buy the real thing and not an imitation. Don't get me wrong I like TSP, but I think they were wrong for doing this. Most do not know about this though.

I don't believe the PTM is a copy of NW.All of the 90mm tb's look real close,FAST,PTM and NW.That is your opinion and I respect it.That leads me to believe that NW could have copied FAST.I still like the quality and price.

Nick Williams did not copy the problems that people were having with the FAST TBs... ..

Yeah, the only difference is that the NW, ptm, tpis and others actually work, and dont' get hung open like the junk fast does.



I bought a NW, and am 100% happy with it.

The PTM is a cheap Nick Williams knockoff - don't be fooled into cheap imitation.

Nick Williams 90mm all the way, and Nick is a kick *** guy to boot.
