I got bored one day
« on: January 27, 2013, 07:42:27 PM »

So a few weeks back i started a new wanted thread, asking for a refurb job, So Jake from Vitas got in touch with a pic of a B&S fireblade that he had, in his words 'used and abused' and it was in a pretty messy state. with a couple of big cracks and a fair bit of delamination. It arrived on thursday, and straight away i took it into my workshop.

this was the pic that Jake sent me:



pics of it afterwards:






All in all, for 20 quid, I think it was a good buy and I am pleased with how it has come out :) and thanks to Jake for selling me it :)
opinions and feedback wanted please :)

Forgot to say, if anyone wants their bat refurbed, a full refurb is a tenner including a new grip, new scuff sheet, glueing any cracks etc, however you would have to pay postage

Hope she serves you as well as she did me.

My first premier league half century was scored with that blade. :)
