I picked these "Cues by Drew" up from Chris Drew at the Midwest Cue Show. I was extremely impressed with the quality of work and materials in these cues. These cues are super solid and a tremendous amount cue for the money. Satisfaction guaranteed.

The first cue is a Snakewood forearm and Butt Sleeve cue with an Ivory joint and Ivory Hoppe ring. The butt weighs 15.4oz and each 13mm shaft weighs 4oz. The ferrules are LBM. Cue has a high quality textured leather wrap from Martin that has a great feel. SOLD

The second cue has a Camphor Burl forearm and butt sleeve, and the figure is outstanding. The butt weighs 15.6 and the 13mm shaft weighs 4oz. The cue has a chocolate colored genuine Elephant Ear wrap, and has an Ivory Hoppe ring and an Ivory ring at the joint. This cue is $900 shipped.

Both these cues have a 3/8x10 joint pin.

I built this cue. It originally sold for $1100. I got a call from a friend in florida a few months back saying a cue collector in his room came in with that cue. The snakewood in that cue was some of the nicest snakewood ive seen.

VERY nice work, I'm really impressed! Was it hard to find a piece of wood that big that worked so nicely? I know snakewood can be hard to work with. And I think $1100 is a steal for such a nice piece of art. Would you consider making another? I might be interested later on down the line. Again, beautiful work!

At the moment I dont have any snakewood. The last time I tried to find some as nice as what is in that cue the price was crazy high. I probably wont attempt another full snakewood cue. I built two of them the other is the same as that but with four curly maple points. Between the cost of good snakewood being so high and the risk of it cracking at any point during and after the construction I dont see myself doing it again. But there are lot of other great woods out there that are just as nice or nicer. I have a piece of quilted sapelle that gives any piece of snakewook a run for the money. I also have a lot of really nice burls so if your interested in a different type of wood let me know.
