What about James laver

[Talisman]

I was only talking UK made, of course there are more all over the world.

I would not include James Cornford if Fusion are importing bats, there are others who sell bats and own brands but don't make bats.

I should have added Charlie French and Andreas Neapolitan to the UK makers list...

What's his name? Andy something from SAF?

I think Andy is to new to be call great.....

Anyways I was looking for a great a-la Julain Millichamp in the 80's

"Then with the Ashes tour of 1989 came a significant breakthrough for the company. Word of the quality of Millichamp and Hall bats spread to the Australian test squad and before the end of the tour 11 of the 16 tourists were using Millichamp and Hall bats, albeit disguised with the labels of their better known sponsors. In fact by 1990, 27 of the top 40 Deloittes rated batsmen were doing the same. Remarkably, Millichamp and Hall never had to give away a single bat. "

Rob Pack does make bats! He finishes the Puma bats but makes his own brand of Blue Room

Tony must be one of the most experienced makers too, been making bats for 50 years!

Marty Graham. Does Rob Pack make his Blue Room bats from scratch?

[bat repairs]

going back a few posts I don't think Rob Pack will be too delighted to be called just a finisher of bats.

i'll mention that to him next time I speak with him, he'll be thrilled i'm sure.

yes he does mate, i've been to his showroom and his workshop in irthlingborough.

Dom, your constant name dropping is becoming boring. Surely Rob wont care what a bunch of people off a forum like this think of him.

[eaowbear]

Any need for that when he is just responding to what someone else has said?

Back on topic, what about Bernie Facer?

In a topic discussing great batmakers, the odd batmakers name is going to be dropped in...

[Howzat]

Maybe that was the bit Skippy meant?
