It sounds to me that Ray Barton was just posting this saying they have taken delivery of a fresh block to look over and do quality control. Checking it on their CNC equipment, looking for flaws, etc.
I'd sure rather have someone like Ray check out the first run of the product before they start blindly shipping out fresh parts.
