Bats are usually made of 60-year-old ash trees from northern white which is split. Then the bat, or you can say the wood, is made into a square. After that they make it round to make the shape of the bat.

After the wood is cut down into smaller pieces of wood, called billets, it is put onto a machine called a lathe. This turns the wood at a very high speed so a skilled woodworker can use chisels to carve out the shape of the bat. After testing for weight and proper size, it is varnished and sent to the player or the stores.
