The purple is nice but I like the purple blue pieces.
Maybe I'm off in the color dept but I would like to play with a cue with those colors.
But what can you expect from a guy whose wife dresses him. I have zero in the way of color coordination

One of the burls I found ATVing. Pics were of the first opening cut. I got half a dozen more 1.75" slabs from it after. Slabs are approx. 15" wide by 20-40" long. Lots of wood. Got a few more bigger logs scouted but gonna be a job getting them. This burl is what the locals call box elder, but it's not box elder. It's a small shrubby tree with leaves similar to box elder, but the wood is hard & dense like sugar maple.
Sorry Joey didn't mean to high jack your thread......but heres some more Double dyed Violet and Gold, Black and Red, Black and Gold and Black Ash Au natural... :thumbup:
Boy.....after some of these incredible burls I dont think I should even bother......awww screw that! Here is some pretty cool cocobolo:

That coco is really nice.....:thumbup:
How about 3 Curly Brunettes ???
Very nice!!! I bought all of that stuff in 18" squares. I bought what was on the shelf, then made them cut up all they had still in board form & bought it too. Wasn't much wood, unfortunately, but enough to last me the rest of my life!!!! I was surprised how stable & how well processed it is.
I asked if they could get more and they told me it was a unique log like nothing they'd ever seen before, but that they'd keep an eye out for more & contact me if they ever come across some again.
Yep Eric, I like that stuff too. Heavy dense and tons of curl. Altho the curl becomes pretty subdued when its finished out, until you turn the wood in the light and then you can see it... :thumbup:
This is some spalted black ash burl I just got back awhile ago from the stabilizer. Finally sanded the crust off of it today. PITA. I think these sizes will work for a wrapless cue right ?
Forearm 13"
Handle 12"
and Butt 5"-6"
