    Amazing Process of Cricket Bat Making at Factory
    Ever since the game of cricket became a professional sport, there have been many changes to it. However, the one thing that has remained constant is the shape and feel of the bat. There have been changes to its size and method of preparation but which has made it into the giant version that the cricketers use today. Several altercations such as the increase in width of the bat, multiple grips, oiling, and hammering are practiced in modern-day cricket
    What Material is Used to Make a Cricket Bat?
    A cricket bat can be made from 3 different willows which are listed below:
    Kashmir Willow - Kashmir Willow, as the name suggests is found in the regions of Kashmir. Even though the Kashmir quality willow is excellent, it is not as popular as the English willow. Therefore, it is the main raw material for companies that do not operate on a large scale and make cheap bats.
    English Willow - English willow bats are made of clefts that are imported from the United Kingdom. These willows are considered better than the Kashmir Willow and are used by most international players. Prominent bat makers and brands also use English willow who make expensive bats.
    White Willow / Salix Alba - White willow or Salix Alba is a native to Europe and western and central Asia. The wood is tough, lightweight, and shock-resistant. This means it can handle the high-speed impact of the cricket bat without harming the bat.
    How Can I Make a Cricket Bat at Home?
    A genuine cricket bat can be difficult to make at home. It carries a set of difficulties with itself which is not a feasible option for a bat creation. One cannot manually make a cricket bat, we need automated machines for the main operations. A craftsman can still perform functions such as the shaping of the bat. The above-mentioned tools are a handy guide for a person to start the bat-making process. Apart from proper tools and machines you also need a proper location, a place with good lighting and electricity supply. One cannot afford to make any mistake especially while shaping the bat.
    1. Cutting or Machining Process
    The process starts with cutting or machining the willow. The trunk of the willow is given an approximate shape which is known as clefts. Before a perfect shape is given, their ends are dipped in wax. This wax is air-dried for approximately a year’s time. Clefts are then graded into four levels on the basis of straightness, width, blemishes, etc. The size of the bat should not be more than 38 inches and the width should not exceed 4.25 inches.
    2. Pressing Process
    As the name suggests, the pressing process involves pressing the fibers close. This helps in shaping the bat through compressing and making it a solid compact willow. It is one of the most important steps of bat making that will eventually define the performance and durability of the bat.
    3. Fitting the Handle
    After the pressing process, the blade is sliced at the top to create space for a handle to be attached. The handle is fixed into this space and the adhesives are applied. The handle is key in providing the bat with spring like capabilities and forms an essential part of the bat.
    4. Shaping the Bat
    A draw knife is used in giving a desired shape to the bat. The altercations are more specific in nature such as rounding off the toe and filing away the unnecessary pieces.
    5. Finishing Operations
    Once the edges and the face has been sanded down, which makes the bat smoother, the bat is then polished by a bee wax compound. This helps in keeping the moisture out and letting the linseed oil in. Once the handle is bound, a string of rubber is then applied on the handle which gives the batsman a desired grip on the bat and also gives it a smoother feel, making it easier to hold. A toe guard along with the brand sticker is then applied.
