They look lovely.
However - I have to raise the issue of the tremolo arm. It appears that you haven't used the Callaham/Kev Hurley system of a nylon sleeve in the block to eradicate slop. Whilst I accept that this is period correct, so are 13 gauge flat wound strings... neither are particularly good for today's player.
Can I suggest - nay, implore you - to adopt such an upgrade to your clearly otherwise well made Strat Trem blocks. Slop in the arm is hideous, unmusical and unnecessary.

I've had a multitude of Strats over the past 40+ years. Slop has never been a problem. I just remove and discard the small spring from the block... and wrap a small amount of PTFE thread tape around the thread on the arm.

We will add some standard thickness blocks in steel too for customers whose guitars wont accommodate a wider block without modification.
