Check out my new red ink.....







Currently weights around 4.2, lol. No stickers or grips yet.




Big thanks to red ink, easy purchase, and arrived when they said it would. Plus I actually asked for a shoddy piece of wood to play with, but this ones actually not a bad bit off willow. Few marks and non straight grains, but I've seen people pay hundreds for ones that look worse!
May have to buy an actual red ink for my next bat! Very impressed.


Anyway onto the bat. I like t20 bats, or the idea behind them, and always thought I could do better. And had an idea in my head.
Then I saw the gray nicholls nemesis and thought, that close. Maybe my idea will work.

So I plan to make it, I'm a pipe fitter by trade, so chances are I (No Swearing Please) it up, and don't achieve what I want. But if I do, I'll use it to destruction.
Will keep progress in here.


Imm off to take measurements and make plans. Holla

Glad it arrived ok. It's certainly a big bit of wood ATM so can make you anything you want.

Enjoy making it, easy to get addicted! If you need any advice etc as you go let me know

How big are the edges..? 

Most of the clefts I have are around 50mm edges before shaping
