Toe Repair
« on: February 08, 2019, 03:47:45 PM »
Any advice on what to do with this? I don’t have the tools to cut out and splice a piece in there.
Thanks

Your best bet for getting this repaired is sending it off to a professional who can graft a new piece in there.

Actually, this is CBF.... Your best option is to buy two new bats! :D

Due to the damage wouldn't spend money on it  as any repair inc  Grafting probably won't work You could make it into a size 6 bat

It’s already a kids bat which is going to be their net bat. The face has come up like new but I can’t make the wood grow in there 😀
I think I’ll just drop some glue in there to seal it.
Thanks

you could use epoxy resin to fill the sections and then shape/sand them into the natural shape of the bat, not great as it is very brittle but it would potentially do for a net bat

Where in the country are you? If you’re local I’ll splice in a piece for you for free

I’m in Swindon Wiltshire. I see you’re Taunton so even though close ish a bit too far for a quick trip.
Thanks for the offer though.

Mix some glue and sawdust and let it dry in place and then sand it to fit. Won’t be a strong fix but will make it look Baeyer if it’s just a kids play bat.

They won't catch us this time! Not this time! They haven't spotted us! No, they're all snoring in their bunks! Or, you know what? They're drinking at the bar, celebrating our sinking! Not yet, my friends. Not yet!
