Great work fella, I'm liking the profile on the 2nd one.

If you don't mind me asking what did you use for the concaving.....and how did you get the toe guards so neat!?

thanks for the feedback guys

travishers and round bottomed planes for the concaving. toe guard wise i trim them with a sharp knife once glued and set and then sand them flush with a decent sander. use inflatable drums. gotta be careful though as they soon can take willow away where you didnt want to.

i like both shapes. think the lower one would look better if it was also in grade 1. both were made to order for guys at my club. both happy customers.

Thanks for the info, I wasn't brave enough to try concaving on my first effort but will give it a go on my next one.

Not sure I will go to the expense of getting a decent sander yet, seeing as you are making bats to order it is probably worth it!
