Hello Alois,
You might remember me as Minh-Tri from Westbourne Grammar, year 7. I recently got a new bat on the holidays but it has not been assembled. I have got all the equipment needed to assemble it, but I don't know how. I've watched your video clips on www.youtube.com and they are great. I watched the clip on how to apply the rubber to your bat and i understand the first way to do it, which is apply the glue on the rubber and blade, let it dry and then after it is dry, stick it together. I also want to try the second way of attaching the rubber. Though, i don't understand how to do it. I understand that you apply the glue on both the rubber and blade and stick it together right away to let the glue 'sink in'. Then you leave it overnight for it to dry. Then, do you jst use it the way it is or do you peel the rubber off? If you have to peel the rubber off, do you just apply more glue on again and stick it back on? Or is there something else i have to do? I have no idea what to do from that point onwards so could you please help me?
Thanks!

Hi Minh-Tri,
The video was referring to when you use speed glue so you would not need to worry about it. Use the method where you glue both the rubber and the wood and let them dry and then stick them on.
Hope this helps.
