Stickers and bat look quality. What weight was the finished bat?

And, more importantly, how big are the edges?  ;)

It ended up being 2.9.10oz so basically 2.10oz finished. I think the edges were 35mm and spine 55mm. It's quite thick at the toe and shoulders too.

Picks up lovely though.

Yes, the guy I've made it for wanted a mid, middle round about 180-200mm so that's what he's got.

The edges of my bat take a beating, the middle is near enough new.

received 2 bats from Ryan earlier in the week and very impressed with both. They need knocking in yet but they both feel great tapping up a ball and off the mallet.

I sent up my match bat for Ryan to make a copy of an the end result is very good. Couple of pics below of it.

Looks a cracker Tom! Still waiting for mine, but I know he's a busy man with lots of sticks to make, so I told him to leave mine till the important ones are out of the way

yeah great shape, told ryan looks werent of concern to me cosmetically on a bat when it comes to my own sticks as its not like im trying to sell them!

going to get it knocked in and ease it into action towards the end of our indoor nets with any luck as we have 6 weeks left still.
