The cue is not perfect , splices are not millimetre perfect , but it hits the ball really well and has perfect taper and balance . The cue is going on holiday this weekend to the National Inter League Finals at Yarmouth , it also happens to be the World Qualifiers as well , thats how much confidence my friend has in this cue . For a completely hand planed , well balanced , perfectly tapered and above all a fantastic playing cue , I stole this when I bought it , my apologies to " j6uk " , you deserve to do well if you decide to make this a low volume business and for the record I AM KEEPING CUE NO 1 .

    cue specs were:
    58
    9.5
    29
    15.5
    17.5bp



    this cue looked great but it came up very light with the odd defect as i worked into the splicings to get them even.
    im sure someone out there would have liked the cue but for me and my estimations i wasn't prepared to take it back to the jig and rework it, so there was only one thing for it so i could move on
