Is This Repairable?
« on: April 17, 2013, 10:09:39 AM »

Pretty simple question; Is this fixable? If so, who can fix it and how much will it cost?






Any help greatly appreciated :)

Definitely repairable. Water down some glue and make sure it's right in the crack. Clamp it up. And dowel the crack. Probably better to get someone else to do it and no guarantee in how long it'll last but definitely repairable if the right persons doing it mate

I'm happy to have a crack at it, no pun intended.

Most bats don't perform very well out of the toe area anyway. Most repairs are about maintaining the middle.

Its got a top middle so its worth the repair cost.
