Damn, I dont have anything near as fancy as those to post up. This is my Murrell. Started life with a stainless joint, was to heavy, sleeved it with juma. Was out of white/green linen so I used white/black. I will get around to changing it some day. She is plain and simple and works...

Finally got the finish done on this traditional cue. The design was not mine, the owner made the suggestion of using birdseye thought. It really worked well in this cue. He wanted a white/green spec wrap, but that did not jive with the blue veneer in the rings very well, so we went with a...

This was built for a service member who puts his life on the line for us every day in Afganistan. Thank you! Curly maple front, ebony points and butt sleeve. The ebony had allot of brown in it and I went with the double black. brown and white veneers. Originally, the cue was to have no...

I purchased a bunch of old xylophone keys from a guy a year or so ago. The company was based in Michigan and went out of business about 60 years ago. A few of them were brazilian rosewood, but this was some other rosewood, probably honduran. The points were made from an A sharp key, at least I...

Finally got this player done for Dom. He wanted plain and simple, I think the wood really stands out on this cue. He wanted to leave a thin black ring above the wrap and it really worked well with the black ring at the bottom of the butt cap and the joint ring. Naturally, it had to have a...

Thanks Jhun, You know there are still 2 big pieces of amboyna burl here with your name on them. Kenny

I did not have any problems working with the mesquite. It cut fine and smooth, sanded and finished well. I am not really sure where I got this piece of wood, have had it a long time, at least 8-9 years. It was under a shelf for several years till I had to find something I dropped on the floor...

They are actually red/brown. They match the linen at the bushka ring and joint ring perfectly although the pictures make the linen look darker. Kenny

Thank you everyone for the kind words. I know, it is real hard to see the copper in that cue "in the pictures". Looks great in person. I was going to do the barbells and all in silver and in fact did the test butt sleeve in silver. My wife looked at the cue and the silver and said, that...

The birdseyes were not suppose to be there, they just snuck in while I was not looking. Kenny

A couple of hoppe cues ready for butt sleeves, hoppe rings and bumpers. Inlays in a couple, just about ready for final pass. Unfortunately, the copper with the notched diamonds just does not want to show up in the pictures, but it really works well with this cue. My wifes design. Thanks for...

Finishing this cue for a gentleman and he asked me to post pictures. It was real hard to photograph this cue. the abablony likes to be in the light a certain way to show up real well. Brazilian rosewood into maple, silver and abalony with twin "glitter bands" in the butt sleeve, dark brown...

Yes Greg, the ebony and snakewood is for Reid. He was over the other day when I just had the seal coats of finish on it, looks a whole lot different now. Just finishing up the rings on the shafts and it will be time to play some with it. Kenny

Thank you all for the kind words, I dont guess the owner has seen it yet or I probably would have had a call or email by now. I have not talked to him about it in a couple of months. This was revision 4 in design for this cue. With the dark forearm and points with the bright veneers, I had...

Sorry for the quick pictures, they are not the best. An 8 point for a local player. He wanted a non traditional handle on this cue. Some nice figured ebony with snakewood accents. The other cue is something a little different for me. 8 Ebony points into brazilian bloodwood. I normally...

Ebony into black mesquite, ivory, gold and gold lip mother of pearl. A little something different hopefully. It will look better with the elephant ear wrap on it. Kenny

Hi Tommy, thanks for asking. No, not for indexing. Before the handle and forearm go together, I put in the A joint pin and the ring goes on. The delrin is just a simple nut to clamp everything together till the epoxy sets. I then glue on the handle. Using the delrin nut keeps me from...

All of these belong to people, sorry. Thank you all for the kind words, I appreciated your support. Kenny

That cue is for Tommy Kenny

Those are actually both Brazilian rosewood forearms with ebony points the pictures are a little dark. Menny
