I can understand wanting to "update" or offer a slightly different version of their hinge to stimulate some more business, but why do almost the exact same design as another exsiting company?

They could have just as easily machined a different pattern....why the "triangular" style, just like RB? Why not a more "square" pattern or "linear pattern" or round cutouts etc etc. There are quite a few way to change it up without doing something just like the Ring Bros.

I can understand that when you make a new and innovative part and its a success, you will end up have copies coming out of the woodwork.....but it will still piss me off.
