CNC's can go out of alignment over time, but should be recalibrated regularly to correct them. Some kind of quality control system should feed back how accurately the machine is working to allow it to be tweaked if it goes out of tolerance.

Maybe B3 should start a non-conformance bucket for bats machined out of tolerance! :D

Exactly

I test at least once a week on tools bed plus parallel alignment so its bob on

Roco, have you not thought about returning the bat? May be a good test to see what there customer service is like.

Well talked to them about it but after a few mails with them they seemed offended I questioned there product and rather than help me they tried to convince me they were right but after awhile they offered to make a new one but after the hassle I just decided to sell (at a loss) and live and learn

Would be quite an interesting bat to be honest if you could keep the weight down  :D.

How do you get on with your Legacy, Tushar?

It was heavier than i usually use and obviously pick-up wasn't the lightest (was still a good pick up the bat but too much for me) so i ended up selling it on ebay...i think i got my money back...had only tried it in one net and when i did make contact it flew but again i couldn't even reach half the stuff...i think getting it in an ounce lighter than i usually use would've worked well..
