i wish i was able to see the process in person i cant wait to see it with some clear on it.

how does it play?

i dont know yet i dont have the cue, if it plays anything like the ones he built me already i am going to be very happy!


thanks for all the nice comments guys i will add the photos of the cue when it is %100 complete and has the matching JP's and clear...
 
Sometimes the simple basic cues are the best looking ones. HA! HA! Has he been working on that for like 4 years? Breathtaking work and design. Congrats to you and thanks for the peak. Be sure to show us the finished work.
 
Dam I know that cue i called Kenny one time and he was cutting the pockets for that cue . It has over 100 something inlays ivory and silver . Dam that cue is NUTS ,, Kenny stepped up the bar ones more..
Go Kenny ... :eek::thumbup:

I will have pics on here when its finished before I even get to hold it don’t worry!
I don’t think it’s been 4 years but over 2 for sure Kenny has done a great job!

there will be 159 inlays when the JP's are finished (that doesn’t include the work done to make the window pattern in the butt) there is 24 recut points to make 6 points with thick cocobolo and curly maple veneers.

I really cant wait to get him working on some other stuff I am drawing up haha...:embarrassed2::eek:
 
Respect, damn nice looking Cue and your Design are out of this World.
I think you have to draw my Searing, before we start:thumbup:

Kenny is an upper echelon cuemaker without a doubt, and this cue is just more proof of it. I have never seen him fail to absolutely nail a design to perfection. The cues he delivered to me for the SBE were flawless and he is awesome to work with.

His points and inlays are always razor sharp and clean. He understands proportion and balance as well as any cuemaker I know.

Congrats on a great cue!
 
Absolutely amazing cue. And I love the progress pics-it really adds to the "history" of the cue!

I don't think I've ever seen a veneered - recut cue before, let alone a cue with that many unique and original design influence. I am very, very impressed with the both the design and the craftsmanship.

That is true art.

i bug him to send me as many photos as he can i love watching the cues evolve bit by bit. (makes his cues hard to sell too!)

Actually at the base of the points above where he boxed them off looks like the cue has recut points with veneers but acutally the recuts just come together at that spot and look like veneers. this design drove him crazy :embarrassed2:
thanks for the nice comments!:thumbup: i am very happy with how it turned out!
