Are you at all interested in making a "plain jane" style cue?
I've outgrown my production cues (Predator, Mezz, Lucasi, etc), and am looking for a real cue with real playing function. I don't care so much for looks (fancy inlays, points, etc), I just want the best shooting cue I can get. Problem is cash...these custom cues run in hundreds or thousands of dollars, and I think it's mostly because of all the time it takes to put all that fancy-looking stuff in that doesn't actually affect the game play.
So, I'm basically looking for a deal on your best-shooting cue that doesn't take you forever to make and therefore doesn't cost me a shitload of money, heh. The only specs I really want are: 11.25" tip, European taper, 30 inch shaft and butt (60" total), total weight 19.75 ounces, and a Uniloc joint...everything else is up to you.
