Will Robinson danger!

Warning. The archwire attachment system does not meet the standards. Within a minute of attempting this, my camera slid forward off the floor. (Canon 1dx with 300 2.8 and 2x). Luckily I was there to catch him. However, the "oh my god" moment. Upon closer inspection I noticed that the dovetail part (fixed side) was not cut at the same angle as the moving locking part. So there is very little "catch" on this side. So little, in fact, that when I manually tightened the included (pretty crappy) arch plate, I was able to move the plate with little effort. It does NOT cost $200. This is a return. I have a partner from Wimberley and I stick to it. I've never had a problem with this part!
