Good ash is very hard to find and there's a fair amount of spoilage from each batch I get.
It's a shame as its purely visual and some of the ash I reject for ugly grain patterns actually feels like it would make a great playing cue.
Equally the same is true that attractive grain pattern doesnt necessarily translate to a good piece of ash playability wise. Nice work btw
Jason Cue 69 has loverly Shaft and Traditional Style Cue I would prefer it without the black on bottom but personal preference, And the Eureka Looks very Nice.
Jason are you still after little screws for Eureka as I may have some let me know and I will send you some ASAP ok, Send me Your Full Postal Details ok.
That's my cue no.69!! really lovely work, Jason. The wait is really worth it. Keep it up. cue 35 belong to my friend and 3 more in the work. Can't wait to see the rest and get hold of them. :snooker:

Keep up the good work Jason! Cues look class and splicing looks
Really good! You have a very traditional taste when it comes to splicing
and it's what I like too!
Your badge looks great too!
Keep it up mate!
Cheers Ray, appreciate that from a fellow cue maker.

I agree with Hotpot, the grain and colour of the shaft on 69 just looks like a proper cue.
That does actually lead me to another question for all cue makers really, what is the quality of ash like today, is it hard to get good quality ash that is good enough for making cues with? A lot of cues I see just lately, the grain looks quite ugly IMO, looks like some cheapo cues you get out of a catalogue. Also most the cues I've had or tried seem very whippy these days, getting a good stiff cue with a nice spring to it seems as rare as hens teeth!
