World's Heaviest Bat For Guaranteed Grand Slams!

Go to buyraycon.com/waterjet for 15% off your order! Brought to you by Raycon.
We stuffed a bat full of tungsten carbide drill tips then filled in the gaps with molten lead to make the world's heaviest bat! This thing checks in at over 32 pounds. We got a strong baseball-playing man and let him have a whack with it to compare against ourselves. Watch how far we can hit with this beast! Grand slams would be easy hehe.

I wouldn't risk that.. Chip that shit and ingest any of the crap and you've just upped your risk of cancer by a fair amount. DU is one of the causes of increased rates of cancer in Iraq (most age demographics) and all cos the US used it in tank shell penetrators and didn't bother to clean the place up after destroying it. There are 17-18 year old Iraqi kids with cancer cos of DU and all cos they played in areas smashed to dust containing DU.

Remember the old "water bats"? They had a hollow in the bat with some h²o in it that moved to end of hollow when swung, effectively increasing your momentum and power. How's about a water bat filled with mercury?

[@nou4898]

cool

[@dimitar4y]

mercury is a massive safety violation. "Relatively" safe but not ideal. There's other heavy liquids they can use. .... Or just fill the bat with an oil+tungsten powder mix. That's pretty much tungsten liquid!

[@antongolovko1149]

12:46, Dan: So that's not standard?

[@point-five-oh6249]

Just for anyone that doubts, the biggest warhammers used in medieval times only weighed about 6 pounds for one handed variants, with the larger ones for two hands weighing approximately 12 pounds and were usually only for ceremonial or decoration purposes or were mostly used for the thicker spike for defeating armored cavalrymen. The largest hammer in supposed records was a gigantic Lucerne Hammer, which supposedly weighed in at just under 31 pounds, but also was never used on the battlefield (at least to historical accuracy on our current records) for the obvious reason that someone with a lighter weight poleaxe (a more common weapon among medieval infantry) was far more dangerous because they could actually wield it with dexterity and accuracy. Weight to a weapon is only amplified by the amount of force you can push on it, and if there's this gigantic hammer that weighs in over 20 pounds, you're not going to be able to get a lot of momentum to get the real driving weight behind it to do any kinds of damage. These guys might be able to see much more effect if they built a kind of swinging machine, which you can make out of wood reinforced with steel plates, probably needs to be powered by high powered gas pistons, to see the effect of it reaching a deadly velocity, but this bat is by no means man-portable or feasible to use. Depending on the power of this swinging arm, they could probably turn that bat into basically the deadliest, but most inaccurate baseball cannon of all time.

yeah, by at least 30% assuming those inserts were pure carbide, which they probably aren´t. The lead might be heavier or at least quite close.

This was the closest they could get. Real solid tungsten is MUCH more expensive.

Gold bat. Let's go!

[@RamDragon32]

I used to make drill bits for oil that way. Well, not in an aluminum bat, but a graphite mold.And not from tungsten carbide bits but with powdered tungsten. We used brass as the binder because at 2000 degrees it flows like water and soaks into all the powder, but the temp has to be held for 2 hours. Also, because I found it interesting and I hope others will, too, the powdered tungsten we used came in 1/2 gallon paint buckets that weighed something like 55 lbs each. If y'all had used that stuff, you would have doubled the weight of your lead bat.

[@PlanetRylosIV]

That thumb-stroke... 5:45 Them headphones though!

[@bigv6724]

Try using a fast vibrating plate while pouring the lead. It should allow it to flow and shaken down more tungsten making it denser. Also cut off the shanks of the end mills and drills to fit more material. Have to check out the other bat projects now!

This is an impedance matching issue - adding weight to a bat reaches a point of limiting returns with any given weight of ball, sure, but a heavier ball will be able to get more energy out of a heavier bat. So now you need to try the tungsten carbide+lead bat with a tungsten carbide+lead ball!
