Hmm. Seems lika good initiative. Although, does closing of screamingcat.com.au mean that he's stopped making bats anymore?

Amazing oppurtunity to learn from one of the best and keep the tradition going for future generations

He's not young so looks like he is winding down with a view to passing on his knowledge and passion to others .... Tim Keeley must be packing up soon

I could be very keen for this. I visit Brisbane a lot so could maybe throw in a bat making course while I'm there.

I'm heartbroken and devstated upon reading this;

"I am no longer manufacturing bats for Screaming Cat and the purchasing options on there were deactivated some time ago. I have no intentions on bringing that site back. I will however continue making bats if the KickStarter funding permits. Take a look at this post by the Screaming Cat page for more information: https://www.facebook.com/screamingcatcricket/photos/a.549806925037403.126431.439321039419326/848541178497308/?type=1"

Disappointed, was hoping to go get a custom made bat this year or next from him.

Ah well...  :(

Actually if you read carefully, he mentioned that he'll continue to make bats if the KickStarter fund raiser allows him to.

Just as well I've kept this beauty! :D












He sure does make a cracking bat, just wish that I could get a few of the grips he uses, as the one on this one is a little worn out!
