I suspect most B3 customers don't notice, but that's not a good sales pitch for B3...

Well as I operate and train people on cnc's which have to be accurate to 0.1-0.2mm at most being a mm out in your case and 25mm out in mine not a great advert

No, I'd agree. I wonder how many others of the B3s are not quite right? Anyone else care to do a measurement?

People trust the sales info so doubt check specs but would be very interesting

Do you mean about having an inaccurate CNC machine?

Well my b3 is 100 per cent accurate to he nail of the spec asked and I suspect it may e not down to the Cnc machine but to finishing.

But I know bigger all about Cnc to be honest

Why didmu not get your tape measure out when you was there bud.
You gave them exact measurements and then even went up to collect your bat surely if your giving exact measurements than you would have checked.

Had measurements on computer as I trusted maker as I always do so did not think I'd need to scrutinise the bat

I'm kind of with Roco on this one. If you have worked with CNC systems on in manufacturing, there is such a close tolerance on CNC machining that to have any kind of noticable gap between what you send as the model and what you receive is not at all what you'd expect.

As he says, you live and learn.

What I found interesting in doing this exercise is that none of my bats have the particularly giant edges of many of the "big edge" bats, but equally, most are not terribly heavily concaved either...
