or you could just buy a kashmire blank at 4lb?

the whole point was to make a heavy bat and its 2.12 one big epic fail tbh

top work tho ryan to make it look anywhere near a bat as i bet it was a ball ache!

next project make a lam but get two clefts! might be much easier! lol

it's definitely the easier / less time consuming (but more expensive) route

Brought me out of hiding, I'm liking your thought process Fletcheruk [Asian style Lam if you didn't know]

A little tip for the next one to get a good bond and the cheapest way I reckon would be binding the 2 pieces together with loads of thick string and then clamp the binding

But well played Fletch, well played

Cheers Norbs, any other tips?

i'm quite happy with it to be honest, not bad for a first go. Really need to try and make a proper one though.

Same guy from St Annes CC? Don't think he chucks, just bowls like a girl with a limp wrist. I'll video some stuff next week. If I'm wrong we'll show him the evidence and suggest he makes some corrections. Didn't see the ball but remember you mentioning it. We asked Jamie Oliver 2-3 weeks ago to change his JJB special (which he got the hump about but it was funny). I'll have a proper look this week.

tbh - going to bang out an email on nets anyway. We like to have fun but every now and again I have to send a "calm down and be sensible" email out. Just reign back some of the bouncer stuff (cossie), wear white shirts (only 1 or 2) and remind guys not to bring rock hard balls!. I'll get Foxy to mention it to him as well.

Asian lad and his son, 1 in each net. The father (he wasn't that old) was in your net and use to play in Central Yorks and Wetherby 1s, but not played for a while. His son plays for Heckmondwhite? or something, pretty decent cricketer but I don't think he is moving. Not spoken to them since and when I asked for net fees they disappeared but could be my charming personality!

Big Dave also brought a friend who was approx half his size lol - Looked a decent bowler and is very keen to get involved in the club. Our 2's are shaping up into a decent bowling unit, just wish they had some batting  :D
