Title: Newbery hammer edge treatment
Post by: Whispering Death on December 30, 2012, 07:44:26 PM

Just wondering how long does a newbery bat with hammer edge treatment need to be knocked in for before use?

twenty-thirty mins on the toe I did mine for.
No problems at all thereafter.

I'm going over the edges on my B52 as they're still quite square, as well as dong a bit on the toe as alvaro has suggested
