Title: ST - Autumn Collection
Post by: mad_abt_cricket on September 23, 2013, 09:46:04 AM

Sending out these light bats to Hungarian National team and thought to put some nice contrast colored grips and the tapes. Not really matching for some cases, nevertheless was fun to experiment :)

We shot one, but for some reason, the audio didn't work when it came to editing, so we canned it.  Will need to re-shoot it soon (within the next fortnight or so).  For now, you can at least see actual photos of the bat on our website.

looking at the pics do you bind the handle as the last part of the process?

photos and bats look superb mate :)

Title: Re: ST - Autumn Collection
Post by: mad_abt_cricket on September 24, 2013, 09:04:11 AM
Thanks Tom. Yes I am applying stickers as soon as I finish the bat.
The reason is that I want to apply the wax polish immediately after the finishing but not before the stickers.
It helps in retaining the finish.

Without the edge sticker that Torpedo would look incredible. Perfect profile

And the triangle. Otherwise, these bats look better and better.

I think the side stickers need to be shorter and higher up the edge and the triangle needs curves

You know you're making a good bat when the only negatives you hear are about the stickers! Looks great, Sudeep!  :)
