Our Custom Bat Builder is an online tool that lets you design a cricket bat from the ground up. Then we bring it to life in our Brisbane workshop. 

It's that simple.

Ten models, five willow grades, and every detail in between, chosen by you. It takes about five minutes to design your bat, place your order and secure a spot in our workshop queue.

A lot of players bring bats into the workshop thinking the bat is dead. They wonder if it needs oiling, or if it’s time for a new one. The first thing we look at is the handle.

If the handle has started to break down, energy gets lost through the bat instead of transferring cleanly into the ball.

CA (cyanoacrylate) glue is a fast-acting adhesive commonly known as super glue. It is widely used across various industries, from woodworking to medical applications, due to its strong bonding capabilities.

Back in the day, willow had considerably more moisture and was oiled regularly before a protective coating was applied, which meant no further oil was required given it was incredibly difficult for the moisture to escape and dry out the willow. Nowadays, there are more breakages due to the dryness of the willow and whilst oiling it will help, the most effective and efficient form of protection is cricket bat face protection.   

We specialise in four key face protections, which have been designed to be easily removed and replaced when sending your bat in for a cleanup and will not disrupt the way you bat against all kinds of cricket balls.

When serious cricketers are facing 100's or 1000's of balls each week, the life expectancy of their high-grade match bat can be shortened if over-used in the nets.

To overcome this, it is becoming more popular for players to have a practice bat made to match their game bat.
