I did review this company (https://patternlab.london/home/) a while ago and decided against buying a block as I kept getting messages saying my measurements didn't fit with their standards and therefor they couldn't guarantee a good fit.
Well after a few disasters with fitting recently I decided that I really did need a new block, although I have drafted them myself in the past I find it a bit of a headache so decided to take the plunge and fork out £8 for the Pattern Lab block.
After putting all my measurement in they produce a PDF pattern for you.
It was almost perfect, with a little bit of tweaking with the slope of the shoulder and removing a little excess from the up chest it now fits like a dream. So impressed with the fit around the bust and the position of the darts I wish I had done this sooner.
