    That's not chunky. 10mm, 34mm butt and a fat shaft is chunky!

    30.5mm butt, 25 near the top of the splices, and splices are 20.5" long so, meaty

    i hope it is not chunky to the extent that it is very stiff and unresponsive, mate. You've got to give great help on that. Thanks Jason. It really looks terrific and the shaft looks great. Nice long very dark ebony which looks marvellous. Great work there again which speaks volume of your ability.
    Should consider making yourself well-known with a badge mate. Cheers.
    will contact you when done with all the details win, but yeah for now its got your name on it..

    I'm about to do a how to guide for the milk Elks for my website so will share your You Tube video if ok with you.

    The tip sounded like a talisman, very hard but you've made it look very neat and so well burnished.

    Nice solid clear up as well, superb.
    i like what your doing with theses tips, really play well from the first hit.. and yeah you can do what you like with the vid.

    the ferrule is 9.7, 4mm high, thin wall. its my first hit with this cue but didnt feel too different, though i think i only used side twice. would need more time with it

    Did you keep the weight as a cylinder type behind the dowel or do it like you did before?

    as for the tips, if you can make them as hard as possible that would be fine
