The fine grits you end up with are way too high

What's the highest you reccomend using?

I've got a few things I'm not entirely happy with, as after having a fresh look at it this morning it looks like one side is more concaved than the other.  I'm gonna go back into the workshop at the weekend to even things up, so will sand it again after I've had a tinker.

Great thread to learn from and great to see the forum strap line ringing true where knowledge is handed down to those attempting their first effort

Just an update on this bat. Got a few of the kinks ironed out today and slapped some stickers on it that I've had made up. Thought I'd add them here rather than start a new thread...



I'll get some better pictures up once I find my blasted camera...

Cheers fella. I'm sure that can be arranged! So long as you bring thermals... It gets cold in the cave!

There's nothing about that I don't like! Love the stickers, really classy, profile is great and the finish (from what I can see) is top notch...great work!  :)
