Any cue makers that would consider finishing a full splice blank

Hello. I am considering picking up one or two full splice blanks. I would prefer a radial pin, but I would be OK with a 3/8-10. If anyone would be willing to finish out FS blanks, send me a direct message and we can discuss additional details. Please have at least some kind of internet presence with cue building or a website. I am open to almost any cue maker, but I also know that those in demand (a year or longer waitlist for their cues) are likely not interested in a project like this. Thanks!

Edit: fixed almost any cue maker
 
I could be wrong, but I think those two probably have the greatest number of blanks available, that anyone could look up on the internet. Dig deep enough and you will find someone that can and will do a full splice blank with great attention to detail and you or I would be satisfied with the result. For maximum exposure, I would also post the question on other social media platforms as well.

I'd like to know suggestions as well. I'd like to get Rounceville or Prather to make a Titleist style blank and get it built out.

Be prepared to wait and pay BIG bux for a Rounceville. I'd go with a Jeff Prather myself. Very nice work, decent prices and fairly quick build time.

You do the diggin and let us know. There are very few that make quality spliced blanks for sale to the public. Off the top of my head its Prather, Rounceville, that dude in Russia and Schmelke. If there's others feel free to let us know. Bell Forest had some Rounceville blanks a while back. They range from around 350 for a sneaky-style all the way to a $1000 for veneered ones. https://www.bellforestproducts.com/...euYkqY83xxrTjoSw95aN91FGpgbQ8oPtHhcIXLARH6Gxh

I have been in touch with Jeff Prather this past week. He had a few ready to ship cues and I think 1-2 full splice blanks. A new build would be an option with up to a year wait was a possibility as well. I also stumbled across this link that you posted. I think with the buying and additional shipping that needs to be done, just working with a cue maker will be the best option, financially speaking. Outside of that, it seems to be a seller’s market and jumping in line after putting down a design and initial deposit might be the way if you want something with form over function. My experience and opinion as of today.

I see that your google fu is also strong. You probably came up with a few more than I did. Are you looking to have any cues made?
