Handmade Wooden Christmas Tree Upcycled From Baseball Bat Blanks- Hand-Turned Maple Wood In Six Finishes And Four Sizes Our handmade wooden fir trees are made from the remnants and offcuts of baseball bats. These trees are handcrafted by my team of skilled artisans who possess woodworking expertise and a keen eye for detail. To create these fir trees, we start with the remnants of baseball bat blanks. These may include broken bats, damaged pieces, or sections that are too short for use in regular bats. Instead of letting these materials go to waste, we transform them into stunning wooden trees. The process begins by selecting the appropriate bat scraps that will serve as the branches and trunk of the tree. We carefully examine each piece, considering its shape, size, and grain pattern, to determine the best shape and size for maximum aesthetic appeal. Using traditional woodworking techniques, my artisans shape and turn the bat scraps on a lathe.
