I've watched quite a few batmakers at work and where possible taken videos/photo's for reference. Most have been quite helpful with giving me tips which I'm thankful for. Just a formal apprenticeship is more difficult to arrange.

Got 2 suppliers Lucifer in England. And 2 abroad for finished bats. Not gonna name names for either of them but I'm sure you could guess.

And Softs not a clue yet where they are, definitely en-route but not sure on date when I'll get them.

Yes, stick will be there on Wed. Haven't posted it yet due to bank hold etc.

And no not just setting up a company with no experience, worked for/with a few companies previously. Yep I'm 18 too.

Tom I am really impressed with the knowledge you have at the age of 18.

I think the pads look great - gloves look nice too, though I'm afraid I wouldn't buy them as I prefer sausages

Not really any plans for any Wkt kit, not being a keeper myself I've never really followed keeping gear so don't know what makes a good glove. Therefore I don't want to get something made and find out it's not up to scratch. I'll do a bit of research on keeping gloves anyway and may consider getting some done, but won't be in the near future.

Thanks for the positive comments guys :)
