[Talisman]

I would only let Newbery or GM make it, the other options either make poorly in comparison or use someone to make it for them.

The pressing is the key, anyone can shape it from there.

I'm not biased like so many others so id send it to Millichamp or possibly James Laver before id even consider going to a UK company but if i was to use someone in the UK then Robert Pack would be my choice before any of the others and id certainly not send it to GM under any circumstances.

1) Julian Millichamp
2) James Laver - Marty Graham

Think I am the same - Millichamp or Laver.
In the UK, I would go Newbery for pressing, cos all the bats I have that have been pressed by them go like trains!
And would also go to wherever Gary (Redback) get his bats pressed, as the two I have are also guns!
And M&H would be another option considering the Harlequin I have used!

Agree with talisman (btw Talisman any news on those balls?)

If I was going to give it to someone I'd want them to do the whole process including pressing, and for that can you beat Newbery?

If I was picking a batmaker off here, I'd go for Matt H4L, as not sure is anyone else presses there own willow?

If i could send anywhere, would be Julian Millichamp.
If it was only UK, either Tim Keeley or Gary Day.

I think Norb will be the proud owner of a press in the coming months - cant think of another custom batmaker who presses apart from SAF and H4L.......I would like to be proved wrong.
I would send my cleft to Millichamp for shaping, quite like the distinction/retro shape - pressing by Tim only.
