popped a ferrule on this the other day. this shaft was given to me by kieth auld about 4yrs ago. spent the day tinkering around with a few cues i had as he was showing me some moves, then at the end of the day he put this in my hand an said when i was ready i could have a go at finishing it.





its going back in the corner for now but im looking forwards to getting into it at some point. looks like a nice very piece of wood

an its a player, had a few shots with it last week. looking forwards to working on the next few now.. might still put a front splice on this one

im trying to put in two hours a day, aplying myself the same way as when i was practicing on the table.. when i made my first cue that i thought was a nice player, the feeling was very much like having your first ton. since then iv been making cues that not only play well but look an feel pretty good too, so for me thats like when i made my first 130+ break

I can imagine it will be an even bigger buzz if someone else makes a ton with a cue you made
