Sorry... Weight

Sorry... Weight

A cleft sanded plus handle.

Thanks for that informed answer should be able to get it cheap them with no cnc required. So the weight would be?

[procricket]

Depends on the shape mate, we talking very minimal Cnc work ??

Or are you asking the weight of the cleft ? In that case I will let streaky answer as he is the genius and I'm just the teaboy mate.

350 cleft - max weight would be around 2lb 14oz, as ProCricket said this would pratically be cleft with handle in it. Still need to go through the CNC machine however :-)

The way I see it is I would come to you and say, for example, I would like a 2.10 Bragg shape bat and the doctor will then work out which density cleft to use?

If that is the case I don't see why the density of the cleft is important to the customer. As long as I got the required shape/profile and in the right weight. The density just means it's easier for the manufacturer to get the finished weight right, within 99% I believe.

You are spot on - the density selection generally is our responsibility to make sure we get the customers desired weight. We do however have some customers that select clefts on density, as this allows them to get the biggest possible size of bat for a desired weight.

Which I imagine is what a lot of people would want... A lot of people on the forum anyway

Sounds like a 'blue' steak. None more rare!

'Sir, how do you like your bats? Concaved, shaped, off set edges?'....

'No, handle it and get it here'

We could make the Bragg shape at 2'10.5 with a density of say 350, we would just make everything bigger, approximately 1mm increase in size (pro rata accross the shape) adds 1 oz, therefore we could make the Bragg shape 5mm bigger than standard. The only problem that we would have would be having a cleft big enough to do this, as we are restricted by the size on the initial clefts.

I hope this makes sense??

Streaky

thanks doc makes sense and also answers my question.

[Wickets-then-runs]

Just sent you an email about these clefts.

[procricket]

I too have been pondering about one of these bad boys would be nice addition.

Dave, Very tempting clefts those.
