Cylindrical?

That usually implies length the way I understand the term……parallel sides extending from a base that ends with the
same diameter thru-out the length. Nope, that description won’t work so the best description is round, at least IMO.

Maybe send Pics to Jeff at Prather cues in Ok.
The points remind me of some pre-made butts I saw in Tusa back in the day at Mike Betts shop in the Palace,
Mike learned from Verl Horn. Mike and Verl both used Prather cue parts for their cues.

It could be something from someone that worked with
Verl. i have worked on a few Verl's cues and not sure i told people what i found. You could be on to something here.

The rings on the butt all line up and are indexed perfectly The shaft ring is not indexed with the joint collar

Most of the verl horn shafts i have seen were all ivory

Heart is the ability to play to your best regardless of the score or situation.
Coming to the table down 6-0 going to 7 And winning 7-6 takes heart. Dan Louie demonstrated Heart in doing that in the finals.

I like this definition. Like I would take prime Pagulayan over many “better” players if I I had a pick a player to win when down many games to another champion player.

I look for place that does motorcycle quality chroming if that is the finish I want. But aren't all GC4's in bronze? Can the pocket castings be high polished?

Yeah, some were chrome and some are antique bronze like what I have.

NOTE: The angles are approximations. I think Bob Jewett actually called me out on this in the 2000s--for example, I think the 1/2-ball is actually more like 32-degrees, but I was using the 15-degree steps.

The 1/2 ball cut really is 30 degrees (ignoring throw).

I like the dual-view idea.
