Very nice cue Justin, I hope it serves you well. I have an A+++ mid-cue extension made by him! (PS - keep that ABS shipping tube in a safe place)!
Very nice looking cue. The laminated shaft is not my thing but if you like it that's all that matters.
He has been posting some nice work. Seems like a straight up maker with no drama. Nice designs. His extensions seem to be very nice.
Glad you got a cue.

Also careful on how you describe your cue

Pretty cue . Nice slim taper .
Sorry, I'm not crazy about flat laminated shafts .
I had some 17-ply laminated dowels.
I had plenty actually from the old Dufferin factory that closed.
I sold them as some makers like to use them as cores.
They're just too heavy for me. Kinda stiff but they do vary .
Their biggest drawback for me is, they can't be as smooth as non-laminated quality one-piece maple.
They make for good break shafts though.

I would think that 17-ply means that there are 17 layers of laminated wood to make the shaft.
I get the impression that Dufferin started doing that as a way to salvage wood more than anything else. I have a few examples of those old shafts and they are stiff and heavy...not the greatest finish.
As you say, perhaps not bad for cores and break shafts.
But if he likes it, that's all that matters.

Facebook?
The solution is to not go there.
My wife and daughter have practically daily dramatic blow-ups over Facebook crap.
My wife tries to discuss news with me and all she knows is Facebook. Turns out it's mostly lies and hoaxes.
I see Facebook at the gutter.
I haven't ever gone over there looking at cues but I know many do. Nothing against them at all. I just prefer to not go there myself.

Justin it doesn't matter what those Facebook people think, it's a nice cue from a good guy and he makes a good cue. That's all that matters.
If you stick with this cue for 3 months your game will go up, you have a nice cue to be proud of now when u go to the pool hall, now put some miles on it and before long u get back in action and it will pay for itself.
