You can see by the scratches in the pic, that someone has been in there after some shavings though.  At least they are trying. Looks like they nailed a few pins with the tool they were using to get shavings out.

Angry Steel,
My call to swiftech started out with me wanting to help them out in whatever way I could. ... However, after speaking with gabe... I don't really care about them. Gabe had his mind made up that I definately screwed up his product before he even picked up the phone. How dare I post this stuff on a public forum without talking to him... and especially since the apogee is better than any other block out there. It is stronger, performs better, and looks better than them all. <<< that was his attitude. He was not interested in my opinion of the weak spots on the top... nor was he interested in anything else I had to say. Why buy another one?
1) My own morbid curiosity. As you can see by the above pic... this block was screwed up too. Thats 2 for 2.
2) I have interested parties examining them. With a couple of tweaks... the block can be made better... much better. |
Dude, your 15 minutes of fame are up, but keep buying them blocks you hate.....
