Title: My sanding down job....... so far
Post by: Colesy on August 01, 2011, 11:38:03 PM
Here are pictures of a Gray Nicolls Phoenix Titanium before being attacked by a variation of sanders. As you can see this is after the stickers have been removed (relatively easily *good work GN*) but gives you an insight into the condition of the bat. The pictures also show the pain in the ass card crap on the edges which I've e-mail GN about as to find out the best method to remove this. It is almost finished as I just need to finish sanding the back and shoulders as well as giving it a light coat of oil but I didn't want to put up 'nearly finished' pictures.

Sorry for the picture quality, damn Blackberrys!

Finally finished and applied a coat of oil. The edges are still not coming off but when the oil's soaked in I'll take some proper photos and put them up.
