I have a local makers custom cue but it has a wrap on it. I am trying to figure out how to design a new cue that is wrapless and possibly has points (miss my scruggs sneaky pete). More than likely I would go with darker forearm/butt woods and a lighter wrap area wood. Please post some pictures of wrapless cues so I can get an idea of how I should design mine. Thanks!
BTW - If any of you have the 2004 cue calender from www.cuebook.com you can look at July and see a Downey cue on the right that looks like I am interested in.

If nothing else I may just get into another sneaky pete again.

Hello, here is my primary and my back-up cue that I made for myself earlier this year.

The first cue is a Purple Heart Titlist conversion with a Cocobolo butt and an Ivory Butt cap made from a under sized cue ball.

The second cue is a Brunswick Conversion cue from the 1890's with a Curly Rosewood Forearm with a Birdseye Maple butt, that has Zebra Wood Rings.
