    Game Used Bat Stairway Banisters.....

    Hi Everyone,

    I want to use some game used bats to make banisters in my stairway leading to the basement.

    Anything in particular I need to know? Such as, do I need to worry about the screw splitting the handle?

    Just use regular banister hardware?

    Thanks!
    Thank you,
    David

    I would pre-drill the hole then put the screw in. Also if you have any cheap store model bats you could try it on them first.

    Reminds me of a old thread that was on the forum about a year or 2 ago about a guy who did the same thing expect he made them out of Game Used DiMaggio bats & Ruth and a lot of other major names.

    That hurts, but I don't think it will hurt anybody to use some Greg Norton bats, besides most of those were swung without ever hitting anything.

    Hey Jason,

    How is it going up there in NY?

    I am planning on using bats that are from common players, like Steve Cox and so on.

    No Fred McGriff's or Wade Boggs' will be used......
    Thank you,

    My skewed opinion of Greg Norton comes from his many "clutch" pinch hits he had for the Braves last year. I remember one strike out he swung so hard he fell on the ground
