Need wood lathe help

[junior]

My son got this bat, it’s a blemish from the Louisville plant. Can anyone get the ends finished for me? I can finish sanding it and staining it. Just want the ends done.
Thanks.

You could cut it off 1/4” long and then use a file to get it to final shape. Just a thought.

Todd I think I'd do this ^^^^.

Yes. Cut ends off with bandsaw (or hand saw if you don’t have access). Then sand to final shape.

Thanks guys! Sounds like a easy fix!

If you have a hack saw laying around, it will be slower and more work, but you will get a smoother cut and can cut closer to the finished size. Still, go slow.

Good luck,
