Is this the cue in the colours thread J?, have you polished it up more since these pics, the veneer looks so different in the other thread.

next is a splice extension, taking this from 57 to 58/58.25

I see that the video finished immediately after missing the blue. Assume the cue is now a collection of matchsticks?

On a more serious note. I do admire the thought and effort that you put into the cues that you make/upgrade. I also like how you document their development, and how they feel and play. When someone looks at that sort of effort put into building a cue, you can understand why a top maker will come at a hefty price.

Of course whether all of them put in as much effort as you, is something we can't know, unless they were to document the progress of the cue through manufacture, testing and finish. Which they don't, for good reason.

I know if I was you, and I'd put that much into making a cue, I would not be able to put a price on it (at least not one that any reasonable person would pay) that would make it a viable purchase.

I find it very interesting.

thanks for what i see as an encouraging post tetricky.
i'll keep doing my thing and see where it takes me

Nice cue that J,looks like some great reaction from it, cued that first blue beautifully. Loving the " ill take that" at the end ,I thought I was the only one who thought like that

Another great looking cue j6, your getting a dab hand at what is a hard craft to learn. I got plenty firewood in my garage from my own experiences lol.

Make some mini butts and extensions out of them
