I've had a chat with the guy behind this - seems like a good idea to me, would people be interested in a days batmaking class??

I'd certainly be interested.
In the past ive enquired about watching bats being made with a few companies and warsop have only come up with the goods. Its annoying as most companies wont allow it because of "health and safety". annoying or what!

I'd be interested too - not cos I would particularly want to make one!
But more from a knowledge point of view, and would find it really interesting - sad git that I am!
Where / when is this taking place?

I think it would be good if a batmaker made a series of detailed videos containing how to make the bat. Wouldn't mind paying a tenner or so to watch them.
