Looks lovely, really like the way the grains are different on the back to the front. How much do your bats cost?

OK, so after some more time in the workshop over the weekend to make this harrow sized junior for one of our colts.  Comes in at 2lb 4oz with modest edges, around the 24mm mark.

Thanks.  Just wanted something that gave as big a middle as possible but was light enough for a 15 year old girl.

OK, so here's the latst one I've made.  This is the first one I've handled myself.
35 mm edges and comes in at 3lb dead.  Bit of a Newbery Tour shape going on

Oh, and the owner of this one scored a ton with it last week, said it was the best bat he'd ever used.  Dead chuffed with that!  Just gotta do that with my ones now!

It is a little.  These are only phone pics anyway.  Haven't had a chance to upload the decent ones from my camera yet.
