They did change the design on the newer one to have more trumpets inside to prevent that. Geoff Steel one is better reinforced in that regard but the finished product was a little rougher than karbonius. However, what does that really matter if the box works and looks good (ie. 8/10) instead of 10/10. It's going to get dirty anyways :P

Happy hunting!

The new Karbonius is an exact replication of the original CSL box.
