If you want to do just tips. The mini-lathes (HF ect) would be good enough. Just need a way to make a rest for the back of the shaft.

Depends. some people just cant-not mechanically inclined at all

I am partial to stacked wrap also, Had a cognac lizard wrap on one of my cues..looked nice but felt like crap

Mid america and cuesmith are both taig based lathes so alot of stuff might be interchangeable

Old pic of steady. You can use on taig base or the chinese minilathe

Nice work. I also liked building different things for cue work. I noticed the motor is kinda small,any plans to upgrade yet. Or does this just look small from the pics

Steady rest for when I had minilathe

Found a pic of a tip lathe I made 15-20 years ago (taig,pennstate and scrap parts)

Couple hundred for a minilathe or a couple thou for a cuelathe. I was lucky to be able to make what i needed from stuff they threw out at work so it didnt cost me much
