You would struggle to even buy 100 vellum clefts for £12.50 each mate. Mind me asking where you get your prices then? And how do you expect to make a bat out of offcuts? As others have said mate, its an expensive hobby and I think your underestimating the prices.

My figures are spot on unless binding twine prices have sky rocketed over the festive season plus any bat maker on here will know I am correct.

if you have access to all the costs associated with bat making how are you not able to source the clefts or do the work yourself. why did you also need to check the going rate for a part made when you think you already know?

Cleft £5.00 , Handle £5.00 , Twine £2.50 + £12.50 labour = £25.00 (£10.00 extra pressing if required)

These are my calculations.

Along with shrey helmets this up there for the most pointless topics of the century. £25 isn't going to happen.

Then selling at £25 I don't see any profit made by the seller... You expect to be given the cleft, handle and twine? And it takes less than an hour to handle, bind, press and shape the shoulders? That's if these figures are even close to the mark.

You certainly do want something for nothing

You suggested that at selling to you for £25 they would double their money? Now i'm no maths genius but 25 is the same as 25 isn't it?
