I think mr saf is implying he makes his bats from scratch unlike other mortals!!

I've seen some of your posts so not surprised... but as a of way explanation, we are in the fortunate position that we can make from scratch, so completely handmade.  So not just pre-shaped and sanded and has a sticker on it....

We dont mind those that shape original shapes, we all have to start somewhere... We dont like stickers-r-us though

But re-stickering bats is an art form in itself.....

@micheal acc
Use the items wanted page as I think you might be after a bat, just a hunch

I sort of agree with Mr SAF.  Maybe the "Cricket Manufactures/Brands" Section should be split into two individual sections "Batmakes" and "Branded Bat Companies"

I do agree that bat makers and people who put stickers on there bats are different. BUT some of the people who sticker there bats have a lot of input into the shape and design of the bats, where as others don't they just pick stock shapes. I think there is differing categories under the 'i sticker bats up' some just get bats willy nilly and sticker them up, others specify shapes they want making and have far more input into the bats. I'm not saying this is the same as making a bat completely from scratch, but surely it's better than someone who doesn't really care what shape bats they are and just wacks stickers on them?

There are actually at least three different categories!
The first is the person who gets bats and applied their stickers
The second is the person who get part mades and shapes and finishes them
And the third is the person who makes the bat completely

most important one is the person who shows up with a wallet full of cash to spend it all

But realistically though if as a batmaker you have 2 streams where you make your bats for a company/person and supply unstickered and other stream is where you sell for your own brand. Does that make the bat supplied to the company/person any worse/better?

Yes you are right.... I think it is the people that say they make them and just sticker them

[tushar sehgal]

I think there needs to be standardization where stickers read
