Window help

[Lizardking]

I’m wanting to make a window Cue. I’ve rough cut my tube and sanded to 3000 grit on the inside. My I.D. is ~.975. I think I’m close to the dimension I see in this photo from Michael Webb, but I’m uncertain. I’m hoping to make the window clearer than it is. I seem to remember reading about using a compound on the inside ( like Meguiars/mirror glaze). Any help would be appreciated.

it was suggested that I wet sand it. I did, and it did the trick. Y’all are amazing!!!

Fantastic job and what a beautiful cue, I am truly jealous. How much does she weigh? How long is the butt? What’s the total length of the cue?

Sincerely, thanks a lot for sharing.

Thank you. The weight is 15.4oz(butt), the shaft(30”) will be approx 4.3oz when complete, the over all length will be 59”.

Most any good auto clear coat buffing compound/material (not wax) will bring it crystal clear after sanding to 3000 grit. Same goes for the outside with no clear coat needed.
