I really like your cues. One of the things I think make this forum so great is people from all over the world being able to share photos of their equipment and ideas. Thanks..SteveD

Your cues look nice but why are the ferrules thicker then the rest of the shaft?

On my playing cue is because its old and worn a bit.
Break cue shaft has bigger ferrule on purpose. It's easier to shoot without english, jump very good. Shaft is tinner and easy to bridge with hand... :)
 
Neat cues :thumbup: Looks like versatility was a big consideration in the design of your Jump/Break cue. It's easy to see how it would accommodate several different jump techniques and break styles.

I'm curious, what's the weight of the J/B assembled with the laminated shaft, and without the shortest middle section in the butt? What's the weight with the PH shaft and complete butt? Or even better, if you know, what's the weight of all the individual pieces?

Maple shaft is not lamineted, weights are described in first post.
I have played with this cues. They are weapons indeed. Player is solid, nicely balanced, and it moves cue ball very nice. You can shoot soft, you can shoot hard- this cue will do its job perfecty.
J/B is best jump cue ever. Long or short jump, makes no difference. Just raise back of the cue, and drop it in cue ball. Cue will do the rest.
Breaks them nice too. Pero can hit em 26-27 mph almost evrey time.
Ferrule-tip combo is nice invention. Keep the shaft thin for bridge hand, and it keeps flexibility also. And at the same time, you hit cue ball with 14 mm canvas. Canon.
I wish you can see workshop where it was made.... :)

Without middle section J/B is the same size as Mezz PB2.

My mistake, I should have read more carefully. I really do like the concept though...

Anyway, 19.2 seems light considering all that PH, not to mention three joint pins. Are the butt sections cored, maybe a thinner taper, aluninum pins, what's the secret? inquiring minds want to know...
