The Seattle Mariners needed some custom bats for a commercial, and they asked ME if I could 3d print them. OF COURSE I CAN, and this is the story of how I made this possible. I tasked Bill Doran of Punished Props for the CAD work, and once it was approved, I got to printing on all of my Bambu printers, and even some of the Prusa XL printers! From there, we assembled, finished, and I personally delivered them!
