The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

I'd rather let the bat in question do the talking than the background it's set against...but that's just me!

Agreed, although if they're trying to make it look nice, it does look better in wood shavings.

The splice had some lumps out of it - I couldn't be bothered to take 3mm of wood off so just made do.

Top effort. I think the stickers would work better the other way around.
