Bebot's Very Own Custom Cue

[the_general]

I never thought he would make one for himself. The ol' man surprised me awhile ago showing me a nice bocote forearm with an unusual color for veneers. He then told me he was making this cue for himself. Yes, Bebot plays pool and he's a very decent player too.

He doesn't plan any lavish design for this cue but this one I really can't wait to see finished.

... and yes, this is handmade as usual. Points are ebony.


*The background is a genuine black leather with lizard-skin texture. It will be the wrap for the handle of this cue.


thanks for looking.

here's the finished cue:

Bebot took this cue for a spin last night in his regular hangout. Just less than an hour he was at the pool hall, his cue was bought on the spot. Now, he has to make a new one for himself yet again.

I wonder if he'll ever have his own cue for real and be able to hold on to it for a while longer. :grin-square:

WOW. That cue turned out great! Didn't take him long to get it built either!

thanks sir. actually the cue was around 9-10 months in the making. the forearm/handle/buttsleeve/ringwork were already sitting for a long time. the inlays/joint/buttcap were just the ones done recently, since they are not wood material.

Thanks for the finished cue pics. It turned out great :thumbup:
