My First build

You aimed for old school?


I got news for you buddy you nailed it!

You built a shellac finished window cue! :thumbup: :happydance::happydance:

I have seen old school that ain't that old school!

And you did that on your first run!

Beautiful work. Thanks for showing it.

I agree with Doc! I am a big fan of old school meets new school. You definitely have an eye for symmetry and style. My only critique is damn man this is your first run? My first 5 ended up as kindling for camping trips. Showoff! :p

Seriously though nice work. Keep 'em coming and enjoy the ride. :thumbup:

Bet it his great!

Really awesome work,looks like you been doing it for awhile.You got skills,keep it up!:smile:
 
I thought it was like the Sesame Street theme:

"This cue is brought to you by the letter "T"...and the number "1"... :p:p

Great looking first cue! I'm not a "sneaky-pete" type of person, but I like what you did with the butt-end...;)

Thanks for the kind words. there's a little influence from Gordon Hart's early work in the butt-cap - looked good back then, figured it might look good now :p



Thanks Jerry for the compliment, and believe me this one almost found it's way to the dumpster. Will you be at the WCCS tomorrow? I'll be dropping in, hope to see your work.



Thanks Al, hope all is well with you to! Haha, wish you could see the antique hand-lathe I did the retaper on :duck:



Beginners luck, but thank you though. Funny you mention the hit, because it had been a while since I shot with a Triangle tip, and forgot how much I like them :smile:



Thanks Jason! I'm not really a "sneaky-pete" person either ...If I had the talent, experience, equipment and wood, I'd much rather create traditional veneered 4-pointers with Cortland wraps, and neatly placed diamonds and dots :grin:

Thanks again,

Special thanks to: Lindsey David (Linds) for sharing a lot of his insights with me, and Todd Schultz (tsp&b) for making an awesome and affordable cue lathe.

Hi 8BJ,

Very nice cue. The details seen on the ferule, tip and and weight bolt pocket speak tons about you skill.

Keep up the great work.
