    Few starter cue builder questions

    One can build cues with their Boy Scout pocket knife and a hunk of wood to get started if that's where you want to begin. The question is...where do you want to end up? Do you want to just build 300$ cues to sell to your friends and family that you have 295$ invested in time and materials? Or...

    My experience with Fed Ex shipping

    I used to have accounts in all of the shippers...DHL UPS Fedex. Closed them all because of after the fact surcharges. I occasionally use USPS off their site but 99% of the time use a third party shipper with much better end results in the payment dept. Pirate ship is hard to beat. Easy ship...

    18 shafts..........

    10 yr old + shafts slow cut to size over the same period of time. These are straight and stable. Just not the aesthetic looking pieces of wood for high end cues. Look at the pictures close. You are looking at the worst side of these shafts. These are not "light in weight" rejects. Most of...

    Broken pool cue

    Very poor quality in the piece of wood. The wood selector for the day that cue was built was sleeping on the job. The break shows signs and characteristics of a spalted (rotten) piece of wood. A healthy piece of wood very rarely would exhibit a clean, straight across break that is shown in the...

    Best way to hang shafts?

    It's hard when getting started in your new found hobby. This is why you need more than one or two projects happening at the same time. Buy wood! When your glue is drying, you are preparing for the next 2 projects and the next 2 and the next 2. Glue it and forget about it while you're prepping...

    Best way to hang shafts?

    That's part of the game. When you get the woods you have turned down around half way to finish size, buy some more and get them in rotation. If you want to build cues, you can never have too much wood. It's just impossible ;) Even if you have limited space to deal with you'll be thinking out...

    Best way to hang shafts?

    Double stacked milk cartons (found most of mine at garage sales) with the right sized holes work nice. I put a solid bottom on them. They hold quite a few shafts. Easy to move around when you need to cut shafts or do some joint/ferrule work. And you don't have to mess around hooks, clamps or...
