How many of the mentioned bat makers have their own press ?

Norbs - no mention of 'Max Recoil'!  Didn't he handmake everything?

I'm pretty sure Paul Aldred has a press.

I thought he shared Charlie French's press?

Paul has a press and so does Gary - Max Recoil doesnt have a press

This wasnt an outing exercise it was a question to find out who makes.... After listening in to JM  do an interview on the radio he said there were around 10-12 genuine podhshavers left in the world [I think I got the number right]

We came up with a few just for the UK!  :o

PS Max Recoil is still making me smile!!!

Max recoil sounds like a 'super bat maker, the likes we will never see on this planet ever again'

i spoke to a batmaker a while back that said that, although I'm sure that was only when he was setting up/ finding his feet. I'm sure he does everything now.

The Evil Dark Lord is responsible for an aweful lot of rumours thay have become "fact" on this forum. Not all of them are close to being true.

I really think Max Recoil needs a spot in the bat makers shed.

Max Recoil was a legend on CSF  - he invented a wonder handle as well!
