Title: Help please....
Post by: Colesy on February 27, 2010, 02:09:12 PM

I got home from nets last night to find a crack in my bat. This doesn't seem like a normal crack though as it is running down the edge and it seems like it's running through the blade.

I have a picture below to describe it better.

All help is welcome. Joe.

Would I be able to get away with tape tightly wound round the blade?

Fill it with glue and then clamp hard, using other stuff to pad it out to avoid damage and then wrap tape tightly around
