TTD member agold gunna get a new toy.
Since I saw hiz excellent Viscaria get battle damage to make it look like London sewer rats done gnawed on it... I decided to kick out agold a Nexy Sparticus I long term tested and do not actively use. (Because I use the Kanaph and the BEAST)
Sparticus is low end of OFF scale with great control, but it was a little on the light side with 85 grams.
SO>>>> I decided to beef it up some, since agold haz been eating hiz Spinach like Popeye.
Original weight: 85+ grams.
You know the drill... we use Artist's putty knife to SLOWLY go down the handle and attempt a clean slide off.
As you see, the neck of the blade is SOLID. That is great news. All we gotta do is solidify the handle 10-15 grams to improve it even moar.
So we added a few tiny nails (then filled the rest of space with wood glue) before slapping it back together.
Final weight of blade is now a HEALTHY 97 grams !! We were right on target by adding 11.4 grams !!
Slapped on some REALLY heavy rubbers 999 on Quattro (maybe the heaviest rubber combo in the planet) and Beijing IV for a grand total of battle ready 204 grams
As heavy as T05 and H3 are, they are not as heavy as these, so if agold goes for his preferred combo of rubbers, final weight will be mid 190s grams just about right.
I used the Beijing IV that waz on my BEAST to put on agold's bat and glued a new red sheet of 2008 onto the BEAST and re-weighed the BEAST... now 205 grams! 13 grams lighter. (and XP2008 cut is heavy already, but 13 grams lighter)
agold is gunna get the RED Nexy bat and ball case (that has 3 PEACE *** and 1 Double Fish *** celluloid ball)
agold: you PM me how you want this thing. I list some options below.
1) I drive 12 miles to Lake Ontario, toss the parcel into the lake, and let it drift north to and float its way up the St. Lawrence river and follow the riptides down the Atlantic Ocean to Staten Island. Then agold jumps off Brooklyn Bridge, butterfly swims his way to the beach of Staten Island to retrieve it before the beach bums get it and start gnawing on it. This is free shipping option.
2) I mail it to Carl and if he doesn't use it and fall in love with it, he meets up with you in a dark alley or at SPiN Club or somewhere and gives it to you. Please refrain from roughing up Carl, we need him here on the forums.
3) I mail it to wherever you tell me.
It will go out 1st class Priority Parcel.
