Scott Cricket - JS170 Cricket Bat Shaping Video

Hi there, welcome to a video of the rough shaping process of a cricket bat that was recorded at Scott Cricket. Each batmaker will have a different approach to this stage, and in this case, handtools like the drawknife, travisher and plane are used, alongside machinery such as a bandsaw and mitre saw.
Jonny Scott is a professional cricket bat maker based in Leeds. Jonny has been making cricket bats since 2019, and offers a custom service. Every senior bat is handmade by Jonny himself, and as he grows and expands, he adopts different techniques and also adopts responsibility for different parts of the process, such as recently sourcing a press and now pressing his own bats. There are 4 grade options, with prices starting from £199.99 for a G3 bat in one of the stock shapes, reaching £379.99 for a G1+. With a small £15 premium on top for a Customised cricket bat - Scott Cricket offers very competitive prices, especially in a market where top grade stock bats from big brands are selling for well over £500, with some hitting the 4 figure mark. For his profile names, the number refers to the distance in mm the swell peak is from the toe. (So a JS170 would be a swell positioned 170mm from the toe.)
