This wood is 50,000 years old. It has a beautiful shine and figure. It is also a neat story.

Where does a guy find such woods? I don't make cues but I'm working on a wood project.

I've asked at the local specialty wood shop, but they can't even get birdseye maple except in veneers.

Is there a good website or is getting these types of woods a trade secret of sorts?

Thanks,

Jeff Livingston

Favorite LQQKing Wood for a Pool Cue

For me as a teenager and still today as an aging gentleman, "Birdseye Maple"
has always caught my eye as the most beautiful wood to LQQK at for a pool cue!
