Cuemakers That Use a "W" on the Butt Cap

[Lance Link]

Hey everyone,

I have this cue that I purchased a while back, and I have been everywhere trying to find who the maker is. It has a uniloc joint, 13mm HARD tip, and hits great.
I've emailed pics to both Woodworth and Willee and both have stated that it is not thier work. Willee says that it looks like CNC or pantograph work. It looks to be all inlays, even at the joint rings.
The butt is thinner than most of the other cues I have, and each lettered part in the final picture measures (with a digital caliper)...

A) 13 mm .514 in
B) 20.95 mm .8245 in
C) 21.59 mm .8465 in
D) 25.23 mm .9955 in
E) 29.29 mm 1.1535 in
F) 30.97 mm 1.2195 in

It's a nice cue, and it's a shame that I have no idea who made it. I would recommend this cuemaker to someone looking for a cue.

Any help anyone can provide is greatly appreciated...

B and C are off by that much?? They should be the same size.

Wow...

The guy I bought it from mentioned something about wolf, but 'Wolf' or 'Wolf Cues' didn't come up when I did a search, back then or today (other than the lithograph ones with the screw-on tips).

Any idea what the value of these 'Wolf' cues are ? And would you know where I can find more info about this cuemaker ?

Thanks...

it is a taiwanese production cue series that was available in the year 2000.
its not a custom cue.

Not when you consider that a typical cue's taper will grow by approx. .014" per inch of length.
If the OPs measurements were taken at about 1-1/2" apart (at B & C), this would account for the difference (.022").

My question would be why take measurements so far apart, if that's what he did?
