make louisville slugger craftable

It's not THAT special an item; with a rather large lathe you can make one at home. Before electricity became common the lathes were pedal (foot) powered (equivelent to primitive workbench, but let's not argue over a minor semantic), and about ten years ago some guy found a way to hollow out hardwood bats enough to make them almost as light as metal bats without losing strength in his garage (if you see rings on an mlb bat, ya, that's because they needed the weight to counteract the advantage of the lightened bats). Really, nothing here you can't do in your garage without electricity (it helps though).

I don't see anything idea why Louisville Slugger should be craftable, better use Super Sledge or some other melee weapon.
If you really want them, they aren't so hard to get from footlockers, caves or from some shops.

Only found one (actually my cousin did), and one for sale (was it Hub or Unknown? I forgot).

Dunno, I find a lot of them - and usually barter it for a few convenience psychos or jets in Hub.

I bet if you let the Waste know you need those smashsticks and willing to offer something useful for them, you'll be knee-deep in them in no time.

Maybe if the knockback worked, people would use it more

cause I loved the knockback perk back in 2238

I don't need or want them per se, it just struck me as silly that they're rare...
