Two great looking Pieces of ash there....

So you've earmarked this shaft for yourself J...

its more about the craft of trying to cut a shaft and butt down to an exact shape, but who knows it may play my way

[the lone wolf]

the one on the left is a different tree, but the right one is yes.
the golden one will be around .5mm over of my playing cue dims so, cant wait to see how its gonna perform

[j6uk]

the tip was a buffalo, never tried them before. not my cup of tea, bit soft for my pingy taste

[j6uk]

im making three 57s, this is available and one of the other two will be when its done

What a beautiful sounding hit off that cue, the best I have heard, it seems to have a nice authority about it, if that makes any sense at all.

Deep, dark rich sound to that cue. Wood as straight as an arrow too...
Who does she belong too J6? :snooker:

What are the two pencil lines J? I'm guessing the bottom one is where the splices will come up to, what's the top one for?

guide lines, a habit iv go into so i can keep an eye on dims vs resonance of the shaft every step of the way. rituals, and less is more is the mantra
