[Aldred Cricket Bats]

Ok a few people on here asking about pressing. Here's a little clip about how I go about my pressing and how I get each and every cleft that we use pressed to its maximum potential. As you will have heard me say before I am always looking for a certain feel and sound from my bats.

Thanks mp just trying to show the care that goes into each and every bat that we make regardless of grade or customer, be it amateur or professional.  We won't be pushing dozens out the door every day or hundreds a week or month but every bat gets the same attention. Why? Because they are mine and I absolutely love it and love seeing people happy with something I have made.

Thanks for another insightful video Paul.

You obviously get a few sales through the forum but I'm a huge fan of how much you give back to us. You continually offer advice and information when someone asks questions and provide videos to support everything you talk about.

I don't think you always get the credit you deserve but many of us who don't always comment sit back and enjoy your content so hats off to you sir!

Well some say honesty in business doesn't pay off but I'll keep on trying to show exactly what we do and why we do it to provide exactly the same quality gear that professionals would have to the general public. I put in exactly the same care in every bat I make be it club player or international. Thanks for your kind words I will try and keep it going and growing, it's a tough market for the independent like myself but just keep my head down and battle on, hopefully it will pay off with more and more support from the public.
