    Building up the wrap groove with veneer

    This is what I do. I can spin linen on in 3 minutes. Let it dry then zip on another layer.

    Bought a nice Merry Widow, want to add some custom inlay work. Need recommendation for who to call

    It is much easier, and probably cheaper, to find someone to build a cue from scratch. Its not impossible, though.

    No Finish Butt Cap Material

    I'd bet the finish has worn off over time. The butt cap material is ABS or PVC, both available at Atlas.

Someone wants to to be spoon fed free information, without earning it, no skin in the game, then get pissy if the answer isn't spelled out, step by step.

Even if it was possible, the cue is no longer a Huebler, will no longer play like a Huebler, and will probably fail due to structural...

    Why?

    The pad us to prevent the ivory from splitting. Not from impact but from the tip compressing outward. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk
