That third form the left bat looks like a stunning piece of willow. Where do you keep getting all these grainy beauties from.

I've been trying to tell myself that nice, straight, even, close grains aren't everything in a bat, but I just can't help but drool when I see bats like those  :o
You must be on good terms with your willow supplier, or can you get anything at a price?
They look superb.  Got any more angles of those last four?

Loving your pics and your work mate.

Out of interest, what are your prices, or are you only making for friends/teammates etc?

Are you handling & pressing or shaping pre-pressed part mades at the moment!

Based on my old match bat that Dan,, very square toe, they do sit lovely in your stance, but I’ll only do em when the toes thick.
I think that’s about 35mm or so

Thank you for your comments, much appreciated.

Bit of both tbh,, mostly shaping part mades as it’s so much easier time wise etc
It’s just not worth processing a cleft through to a bat for me at this stage,, this is still just a hobby/passion

Prices are on my website or contact me through insta or fb
Not got a clue how you sell on here
