Which of these two lapped base-plates is better?
The left one or the right one?

I'm still taking the one on the right, looks flat to me.Cathar said:The block base on the right is not a Storm base-plate, and it is not a machine lapped base-plate. It's an old plate I had kicking around. That plate was lapped by hand.

jackrungh said:Then I have a question for you cathar. How has your own research into the famed precision of Swiftech blocks associated with the common review-item-in-mirror-like-finish positive test. In other words, are you less confident of their machining processes than the WC reviewer pundits or is Swiftech deserving?
