Recently acquired a bit of a unicorn - a beautifully figured piece of Honduran Rosewood Burl - 18.5" x 1.5" x 1.3". Might make a bit of a thinner butt - that's okay. Really curious what the experts might do with this? All I can think of is widow style so no figure is lost...Any other ideas...

FWIW - a wet paper towel with a bit of baking soda cleans the old McD ferrules right up. Burnish your tip after, and good as new.

Larry - two words. “Gor-geous”! What are those veneer colors - blue and green (like olive) but a dark and light tone together? Really nice. Keep it up!

I chose no rings. Dean mentioned there were both with and without rings. Hoping Mr. Potter decides to get behind the lathe again to do some fancier work, then there will be rings...

Here's a pic of mine - 60", no rings...Nice little cue, with a through write-up here: https://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=504540

FWIW - I asked Laurie about selling / trading spots a year or so ago, as it was brought up in a possible deal. Her direct quote: “Glad you checked with me. Absolutely not done. I only deal with the person who placed the original order. What they do with their cue is up to them.” If you’re...

With Jerry retired (or very close to retiring), I wanted to take a second and say a public "Thank you" for many great cues and projects together...Jerry is a true gentleman to have worked with, and his "points of perfection" show and play wonderfully...Not to mention, he never missed a promise...

Hi Everyone, Terry is real deal, if you're interested in some nice wood...This post turned into image hosting talk, so I thought I'd redirect with pics from a few recent dealings over the past few weeks since this post...Tasmanian Blackwood, nicely figured Bubinga, super curly Purpleheart, some...

I think of it like golf - when I go to the practice green, I go for short putts (2-3 footers), while others try to sink 20-30 footers. I want the short ones to build confidence. Seeing the ball go in the cup, hearing the drop, all gives me confidence I can do it on the course. On the course...

I’ll echo what’s been said so far, and then add a new aspect. Tim Scruggs got me started on this journey in 1991. I walked into his shop as a kid, purchased a cue straight out of his catalog (the avatar photo), and knew nothing about cue design. He picked the veneers - Black / natural / red /...

Wow - there’s a name and pic that took me right back to my younger days. I always wondered what happened to him, had no clue he died young. I had the pleasure of drawing Chan first round in a junior 9-ball tourney at the Cue Corner (Pete Zsinkler’s (sp?) room in Downingtown, PA) years back...

Damn sharp and classic - thanks for sharing! Only about 14 years, 3 months, and 29 days left to go for my wait... :-) Are those orange / green veneers?

Just a few from my collection...I tend to prefer some ivory with the veneers, but might inspire a few ideas...

Any chance to see pics yet of the full cue? Looks like it’s a beauty, and very sharp with 5 veneers. Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums
