Recently I completed the anniversary cue. By my count it's about Three Hundredth cue for Russian billiard, which I made myself. Maybe it's 310th, maybe 320th, I do not remember all of my cues. But it is certainly not less than 300 th.:)

300 cues, a lot or a few over 12 years of the career? I guess it's good, considering that the workshop has made more than 4,000 production cues, where I also took part:wink:. And if take into account that soon I plan to make the One Hundredth cue for pool, then I'm satisfied.:grin-square:

This is ebony, hornbeam, snakewood. Many thanks to Jim Baxter for his help in purchasing of snakewood.:wave3: Sleeve and thick ring on the handle is buffalo black horn. This cue I made almost exactly one year.
I hope you like the cue :).

Yes. I was born in 1960. The middle of last century (How beautiful it sounds) :lol: If you think on my posts that I was quite young:wink:, it does not sad, on the contrary it is nice :D. This means I have not lost the youthful enthusiasm on the road :wink:. Thanks for congratulations Brent :wave:.

Thanks Manfred.

I was used to full butterflies, but a lot of butterflies. I like this style. In addition there are cuemakers who make the long butterfly very good :wink:. For example Brent Hartman (BHQ) :wave3:. Nevertheless, I think about this style. But maybe soon I'll be able to offer something with long butterflies :wink::).
