My first cue with copper inlays

This was built for a service member who puts his life on the line for us every day in Afganistan. Thank you!
Curly maple front, ebony points and butt sleeve. The ebony had allot of brown in it and I went with the double black. brown and white veneers. Originally, the cue was to have no inlays, but of course he changed his mind. My wife came up with this design and convinced me that I should use copper instead of silver in the cue. The owner liked the brown warm tones in the ebony and everything worked with the ivory, copper and brown. Finished the cue off with a white/brown spec wrap and a brown bumper. I hope he enjoys it as much as I did building it.
Thanks for looking,
Kenny

PS Yes Mark, there is a little surprise I forgot to tell you about

Congrats Mark! That is an excellent design and the copper compliments the veneer color very well. Great work as always Kenny!
 
HOLY S#IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah...that'll work!!!

Kenny - I don't have the words. I'm beside myself. The cue is 20 times better than I could have hoped for. You nailed it...six ways from Sunday.

I'm flattered for the gesture and generosity. Everything about dealing with you has been a pleasure...from start to finish. And what a finish it is!!!
 
Sweet looking cue your getting there Mark. Congrats to ya sir.
Absolutely stunning cue Kenny. They keep getting better & better every time you build one. Keep up the great work sir, love seeing pics of your cues.

kenny the jps add such a nice touch to a great cue for a great azer....:wink:
 
That looks beautiful...really really awesome work there Kenny...love them Copper inlays..
 
Not for nuthin'....but I believe that this is the first cue I've owned that had a "first element" usage included. The first cue from Kenny using copper inlays....WAY cool in my book.

Can't wait to get my hands on this bad boy!!!!!
 
Cue looks great and I love the design but, for me, the jury's still out on the copper.

Kenny's work is always top notch!
 
Congrats on a great cue. It looks just perfect. I think we need to nickname Kenny "The Carpenter" because he just keeps nailing one cue after another.
