Can y'all show me your favorite propellor designs?

Ringmaster's Szam is the only one you need to look at... the real deal...
Here is one of my favorites.
Tascarella. Both were made for me.
Hey Papa bear
Its your step son from the North
You know how much I want that Szam & Tasc
I just can`t do a 30 yr mortgage for both cues, wish I could as they are both amazing cues. Hope things are getting better for you.

Very Creative......
It's amazing what you can do when you just draw and see what comes up.
At one point, I think you went a little barbell crazy but that being said, the first design is the best.
Now take that design and instead of a single ivory dot as the top and bottom design......double the number of dots.
In other words, place a dot on each side of the top and bottom diamond pointed tips (2 per diamond - 1 on the L & 1 on the R).
So instead of 4 dots on the top & bottom, change that to 8 dots on the top and 8 dots on the bottom.....like a bookend on each diamond.
Next tighten up the design by compressing the height of the dots so that the dots are closer to the top and bottom points of the
diamonds, and thus in turn also the propeller inlays. This will produce a ring simulation, add a touch more fanciness to the design while
still maintaining what you came up with and you could even use abalone for the dots for more lustre while keeping everything else ivory.
What'ya think? I like it a lot more with xtra dots and be sure to make them size proportional to the other diamond & propeller inlays.

p.s. I looked at the design again. Make the dots (all of them) a little larger and make every dot in abalone for a luxurious look that stuns under the lights.

Slightly different take on a cameo window with gold accents

That Klein Cameo Cue Is Elegance Extraordinaire'
The sleeve on the Steve Klein Cameo cue is gorgeous....I'm undecided whether that cue or the Szamboti version Klein made that's on classic's website is more handsome.......both are just killer designs......as is the original Szamboti cue that's also on www.classiccues.com.

That Tasc is sharp too. I really like the combination of the propellers and diamonds. Very nice.
That's a gorgeous cue! Here's a mockup for a cue I have in the works with my take on the propeller design.
That is a Bob Manzino cue, you're correct. Not only that, but it's the Gus 2000 design. Not my cue, another member's, but a very thoughtful design, updated multi-piece barbells, scalloped buttsleeve motif, and much more. The detail in this cue took a lot of planning. In my opinion, this was one of the best cues to come out in 2015.
All the best,
