Title: Look at This Little Tinker!!!!
Post by: FattusCattus on November 19, 2013, 09:19:40 PM
Look what I've just got back - isn't she a beauty?

After my Uncle basically kidnapped my last shoulderless bat, kindly made by Ryan, I've wanted another one in the kitbag - Dom at DS very kindly converted one of my blades as a labour of love, and this is the result:-

The donor blade was an unidentified Hunts County blank, very kindly supplied by Jake at Vitas. The weight is now about 2.9lbs and it picks up really well. Due to the shoulders going, the profile is kinda swoopy, but I like it.

What can I say? - Mama got da hump!

Nice! The profile looks like an old-style Clipper.

It was either a clipper or a glory. The top spec model but for the life of me can't remember if clipper/glory.

Looks good without the shoulders mate. Nora the Nemesis is nearly ready for you as well. :)

Love it, the side profile looks curvaceous and rather sexy. :D
Did the same to my Warsop, amazing how little weight it removed taking off the shoulders, about 3/8's of an ounce IIRC.

I'm not a fan of shoulder less bats but that's just me.
