Found this craigs ad from a guy in Salem, his designs are nothing special but the wood is still pretty, 99 bucks?? Next time I go to Salem I will swing by and check them out in person, at least to get a purple heart shafted breaker. Any familiar with this guy?

Its worth a look. Sometimes an up and comer is just looking to supplement the cost of doing more work by moving product at rock bottom prices. Especially if its a hobby not a living.

However I'd see if you can get your hands on them where you can try them out.

The last time I test drove some early work they were rough. Rings popping, shafts like an aluminum bat.

I can help you out Wright Shot...

Pick the cue you want from the pictures and send me $500, I'll order the cue and have it delivered directly to you and your wife won't have to second guess your new purchase.

Always willing to help out an AZ'r when they need it.

Pick out the cue you like and pay the man.....and tip big!
I have made many cues for under one hundred dollars, its a lot of work for the money.

Anyone know who the cue maker is?
I looked the pics over shopping'. Is it me or is a few of the cues missing pins?
I'd look harder but that red cloth is KILLING my eyes!

I imagine those are just the unfinished ones he used in the picture to make his selection look better

I've been emailing with him but it sounds like he is not a member here, he received a few emails from members here and said he might check it out.

I have contacted this guy and he is making me a cue as we speak.. I was going to post it on this forum after I received the cue and found out its quality.

I haven't heard from him in a week or so.... I'm going to try to contact him today
