Which companies on here allow people to visit the factory so you can watch your bat being made?

On here that I know of Aldred, H4L. Most companies that actually make bats in house will allow you to visit with an appointment mate.

I strongly recommend Salix (Maidstone, Kent). They've sponsored me these last few years but open up their workshop for bat fittings ever Saturday morning from next week I think. Just pop down, pick from a selection of bits of wood, they'll go through what you want with you then shape it to your requirements. Top of the range bats, and in my mind can't get better.
