This bat is for when the simply safe alarm goes off

Found someone trying to climb through the kitchen window once, picked up the bat tapping my hand as I walked back in kitchen, as they had not seen me. They soon beat a hasty retreat,

Nawh, the alarm system is so that you can evaluate the threat and choose the appropriate firearm to deal with it. When the "threat" is a raccoon or 'possum getting into your dog's food, you choose a different caliber / loading than if it is a wild boar destroying your yard or a criminal trying to break into your house or vehicle. Use the right tool for the job.

I can't even draw a circle much less hand carve one. Incredible! You make a very difficult project look easy.

Subbed because I want to see this happen and don't want to miss it! (great video, too!)

I love how much care you put into ever single project

After a long and stressful day, watching Andy making awesome stuff out of wood is what I need 🎃

You could’ve easily not included the times you missed the ball, but it was awesome how intrigued I was into the video and you walk up confidently to hit the ball and you miss! It was by far the funniest thing for me!

Thanks a million for sharing your work with us, your one of the top carpenters on KZread from what I've seen. Thank you from Canada

Gotta love how he kept the swing and a miss in there, bet he didn’t know he was such a great pitcher lol

Love the ending :) Bat looks amazing.

Love watchin you work man. It's such an art

Just made a bat using this video to help a lot, it’s really not that hard once you get in the groove. I only have a hand saw, plane, axe and drill and still made it work. Thank you for the video it helped so much in this project :)

Very cool. There is always more than one way to do things and this is a great option for someone if they don’t have a lathe. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍

I just want to say, you are one of the most talented carpenters I’ve ever seen. I started on the spoon video I I can’t get enough! Thank you so much for such amazing videos👏

Beautiful work Andy! Really like you branding on the top of the bat too.

I really dug this video. Something real peaceful and enjoyable about someone working in mostly silence, a few notes here and there w subtitles. Kudos.

I stumbled upon your gunstock video yesterday and now I’m seeing this and I’ve got to say that your hand tool skills are incredible! Keep up the awesome videos!

Amazing project!

At 2:06 I thought your dog was a statue and I was like “am I trippin or did that statue just move”

I've got a ton of mulberry in my garage. That's for sure mulberry. I love that bright yellow it has.

So very cool! I love the look of the two tone knob.

Absolutely stunning

Now this is my kind of woodworking. Great work 👍🏻

Thanks for mentioning the wood in the description. I was thinking that it looked like ash, then I thought it didn't. and it didn't look like pecan either. Gotta love a good mystery wood.

Yeah I really have no clue. I found the log on my wife’s grandparents property. They tried to burn but didn’t succeed, years later I sawed into slabs.

amazing bat! well done. Had a silly idea while you were cutting the initial form. Doing the bat with strips of different woods laminated together and then carved. awesome work. you make it look easy :)

Loved this video, very impressive bat, especially by hand. Keep it up!

Nice one Andy, perfect! It's the best cricket bat I've ever seen!

Awesome video, really appreciated the ending where you didn't just cut to the first successful swing and especially liked that when you made contact the dog showed absolutely zero interest in chasing it down for you, lol. Very cool build

one of the few youtube videos I don't feel like I wasted my time after watching it. Great videos. Good day mate!

Beautiful craftsmanship!

I love that you had a couple duffed swings and left it in the video. Nice looking bat!

what a great finished! it looks like it was done in a lathe machine. subscribed!

So much for breaking in and playing with your toys. Thanks again SimpliSafe. And baseball bat.

Good to see the warning systems but you still need a good water management system outside with a big catch basin and pump lad ! Oh how I wish we had the big bandsaw. It would be a rare day it wouldn't see use. I love yer style fella. The bat is another Rawls winner !

Stuff like this just makes me appreciate .. 👊👍

Nice work I really love the way you take your time on the protects and also I subscribed

I completely missed the “NO LATHE” part of the title and when you popped out the plane, I thought “that is such an Andy Rawls thing to do” and I honestly couldn’t have been more happy

Man that was awesome. Thank you for that video, I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. You are a skilled artisan and my hat goes off to you, Sir. I spent four years in the United Sates Marine Corps flying all over creation in helicopters, making parts and pieces out of nothing to keep those birds in the air and today my Dad and I do much of the same keeping our planes flying but I swear I have never made anything as sweet as that bat! That was beautiful Brother.

This is the way all bats should be made, love the craftsmanship

Was just talking to my father about doing this sometime and then you posted this. Awesome stuff, as always.

Man great handwork! Love your work!

Tried my first one today from pine using this technique! I’m super happy with the result, though it did turn out to be 38” long…!

Very cool. Thank you.

Thanks for showing the first two wiffs. Could have easily edited that out but you didn’t which is why I like channels like yours much more than the This Old House style that make everything look like perfection that comes easy.

It's probably going on 45 years since I swung a bat and would have whiffed like you. Good hit once you finally made contact. Fun video, thanks for sharing.

Crazy cool Sir. Id love too see you're take on a osage or hickory longbow!

Nice hitting and bat i wish I had so old bat

Well done andy good job mate

Mad skills man, awesome bat!

Awesome. True craftsman.

Beautiful work as always Andy 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I haven't used a spoke shave for years! But I can improvise with a garage full of tools i guess! Love your craftsmanship! This is real carpentry! Cheers from Australia subbed and liked ❤👍👍👍

What kind of wood did you use for the knob? It seems much more dense and harder to work. Also just out of curiosity why did you make the knob on the handle out of a second piece instead of flaring the end and keeping it all one piece? I’m not trying to critique your work I am genuinely curious. Great craftsmanship!

The spokeshave would have chipped off a piece of the knob most likely. This was a much faster way to do it.

That came out mint. Perfect end.

I would like to see you do some work with a manual (pedal) lathe. I've seen some really interesting work done with them.

Beautiful work and very satisfying video. Wondering if bats are traditionally 2 piece. About google it now. Keep up the great content!

Very very nice, Andy. Well done...!

Awesome video- thanks!

wowow amazing job... loved the video.. and the Bat

Awesome sir.... really enjoyed this video

That’s awesome man!

It's beautiful!

That was AWESOME!

this was the most incredible thing ive seen in a while

Hey this bat is so cool i love it

Mighty fine bat sir, nice job

That turned out great !

Nice job Andy!

I got to say it That is the most mighty ban saw I’ve seen yet 👍

Trying a new bench configuration? Looks like a good one!

The editing at 10:36 between the 2 spokeshavers got me for a second haha

Nice job AR I enjoyed that

This is awesome!

I’ve never been so inspired to make a baseball bat!

Thats a nice touch mark

This is the best video how to make a baseball bat. Thank you.

What kind of spokeshave are you using? Interested in doing this and I don’t have a lathe.

I'm fairly new to woodworking, could you tell me where I could get a good quality inexpensive drawknife or spokeshave? Doesn't need to be as fancy as the one used here, just something that works well. Thanks!

very well my guy. talented

Amazing project. Great skills... but might want to stick with working wood, lol. Bat is really beautiful.

Great job and great video !

When your dog was on at 2:08 i was dying its soo cute and i just subbed and im new to this channel but some cool stuff dude

Looking for a nice simple workshop apron, where did you get yours?

Great job! Great video!

Look at those perfect wooden curls. They look like great fire starters.

Keep up the good work I love the vids

Wow!!!! How much time did you pu into making that great bat?? Thanks for sharing your skills!

Just found your channel. "Now for my small bandsaw" Still twice as big as mine. :D

Great video Andy!!

Hey Andy, I'm a new subscribed/fan of your channel and I had a few questions; 1- Have you ever worked with australian Jarrah timber before? 2- In regards to making a Baseball Bat; How would one go about making one without a Lathe, Band Saw or Spokeshave?

Very nice! What kind of wood did you make the bat out of? Ash or Hickory? How did you get started at your shop?

carving sound so good~~!! i love it
