I've updated the price. This was a spur of the moment decision and I forgot that I sold my engine lathe, milling machine and all the tools and tooling that went with them.

Did you make that tailstock yourself? I haven’t seen one of those adapted for the cue smith. (Not to derail your thread, looks like a nice setup)

"roasted"
is this what kielwood/torrified maple looks like before making shafts?
or using it for other purposes?
obviously i am not a cuemaker or know much about wood

Yes. There are different levels of "roast" if you will, but that's what it looks like prior to turning round.

In my opinion, the medium roast, such as what's shown above, have the most chatoyance after finishing. The figure shimmers nicely with minimal effort. Compare this against regular curly maple where you need to dye/oil/sand for maximum effect.

I have never seen this on modern cloth myself, nor have I ever seen a convincing demonstration. See the OB swerve and turn resource page for convincing counter-demonstrations.

Oh thank God I found this comment. I just learned about and read the beards banking book and when I got to this section I was stunned, since I haven't seen noticed this, playing mostly on diamonds with simonis. Thanks for saving a lot of testing time!
