SS seem to produce ones like these, although the spine will be closer to 62-63mm. Almost anything can be made, it's just if you'll pay the price for it or not!

I'd also recommend speaking to John at Red Ink. Had one made last month and he's currently working on another

Service, quality and value for money is spot on. You won't be disappointed

This is a thread In the b3 section. You guys do realise that?


He's probably like the rest, got a voucher and wants to see what they can make him for the money.

Apologies if I've offended B3 - didn't realise it was B3 topic as I've just been going through unread posts on Tapatalk @smilley792

Streaky the man to ask pal

However as i know bats no i doubt you will be able to get a 2-8 in average density in them specs.

I have a 350 2-8 bat and know the specs ie the Tonto so for your spec however you could map create one with streaky and see if that helps.

Counter Balance handles nope don't do them but i guess we kind of do as we weight handles and can suggest what weight goes in as a heaver handle does help pick up and as we weight every handle in the factory i guess we can.

Grains as we have one of the largest selections of clefts in the Uk i guess we can but as stated streaky will be selecting the cleft unless you turn up and get it made.

We do a bow bats but it a gently bow and we will not be doing massive Asian type bows.

Oops, didn't realise this was on B3!

In which case, B3 can make pretty much anything you want, but at those specs, you'd be looking more towards the Crown grade, which isn't covered by the Phoenix Voucher. :( Also, I think the density of the clefts used for this offer will be an average density, so will probably not make a MASSIVE bat for the weight.

Cool thanks for that!
Hopefully Streaky will be able to tell me what he can/can't do. Maybe if I go up in weight it'll be easier to create.

Gentle bow is good for me. Just need a light  pickup really.

Chad is correct check this bat out it not far off your spec but made out of the lightest timber we get
