These were expensive models. Timi made these rings famous. Love them old heavy brown wood shafts.

Fancy Tim Scruggs Catalog Cue

Probably because he liked the way it looks.
The pointset extends 5/8 of an inch into the wrap. The ring is threaded over everything so you can't see the work. That positioning allowed for the most solid and largest diamater placement in the construction for the Cue's forearm. The inlays would have been positioned indexed and set in a simulair height if there were no Bushka ring.
This rock solid construction and allowed for bigger inlays in the proings.

I forgot to wish you a Merry Christmas. Hope all is well. I am happy you think it sucks. Otherwise you would be buying it as you did that oldie 4 Proing Bridged Veneer TS I should have kept with those old mcro rings.
Always nice.
Happy Holidays,
Nick

Happy New Yar to you too!
This Cue reminds me of the Cue I got from you except the other Cue had the Silver instead of ivory material inlays.

I understand the desire to have the inlays as large as possible and I understand that the points themselves may go lower. However, for my aesthetic, I prefer the inlays line up at the base of the points but not past the veneers. That said, everyone has their own aesthetic. Thanks for answering the question Nick.
Edit: I think the thing about the low inlays that bothers me the most might be that it breaks up the symmetry of the "C" ring.

They inlays are beautiful.
