Here is what happens when a cue makers wife complains about not having a rolling pin. Some Teak, maple, and two old house cues later.....Bam. Instant satisfaction. Now as long as I can keep her from hitting me with it, life will be good.

It is cool coming up with stuff to keep the mind occupied, let's see what else is out there....
 
Closer picture of the handle, I made the dowels and drilled out the house cues so they would spin while rolling.
 
Here's your next project. :D

Nice. I have been tempted several times to make a fancy rolling pin. I saw an antique (fancy and expensive) rolling pin once that looked like it came straight out of a Brunswick catalog.
 
scrap curly maple

i made a few of these using scrap wood. building cues should not always be about WORK. there should be a bit of fun also.

Did you get that wood seasoned well...:wink:

With the wood drop on some of these project, there seems to be endless things to do with the small pieces. I think I will take all the small curly pieces and glue them together in no particular form or fashion and make some short splices. Might come up with something cool...
 
I'd like to see a cue with a matching full splice umbrella handle:cool:

After the WCCS last year we all went to dinner and I saw a beautifully done walking cane.
 
Great but what I want to know is "how is the hit"?:D

It's a little painful when someone is using it against you...it has a very solid hit, almost too hard I would say. "Hits a ton".:smash::smash::smash:The balance is great however, right down the middle. Monster player...
