First sticker design on a bat, apologies for the poor quality.

The silver text, ITIAS will be in Chrome on both sides hopefully.

Have you drilled a hole through the bottom of that bat?

Ahh yes, I used to attach a strong piece of elastic and get someone to hold it. Was apparently meant to increase strength and get my bat coming through straighter.

hmmm does it whislte :-)

The Run Reaper Dennis Amiss used this for a while. It had a series of conical holes drilled through from the back of the bat, just piercing the front, to increase the spring of the face. When swung vigorously it whistled, opening up opportunities for personalised tunes.

The is another as well I think - strat-something or other

I think the stickers on the bat look better, as they are a better scale then the design on the first page - I think they look good - could maybe try a few colour comnibations, but I like the design and the name

Nope, only made these on my printer with double sided sticky tape to get the sizes etc.

The sticker saying "Made in etc" will hopefully be ready soon though, I plan to have that on the back alongside a small personalised sticker if the buyer chooses.

Stickers have come back from printing, they've missed a few stickers and details on the front. So that looks ever so plain at the moment, but pleased overall. The bat is one of the top of the range bats I'll be offering, made in Asia.

The stickers look good and the grip goes really well with the stickers. The bat looks really nice as well.

Don't like the sticker on the back at the bottom, as as you've already admitted the front is too plain - really like them apart from that - any progress on soft goods?

I know what designs I want for the soft goods which is a pretty plain set of split gloves and some pads quite traditional in style.

I don't think I'll be ordering yet as by the time they come it will be around September time. I want to order for around a November delivery at the very earliest. Had a fair bit of help from Gary (Redback) on here recommending suppliers, he's been very helpful. So should be getting them made by a good manufacturer.
