Very cool. Did you have a lathe or did you turn and taper your butts and shafts by hand?

I can't imagine anyone wanting a shaft like that in this day and age with machine technology as it is.

Hi, I peck drill with my gun drill 1" at a time with a 3/4" x 1" relief on the exit end and never drill any wood over 400 rpm. Heat is not your friend. My individual philosophy is if a piece of wood requires stabilization, I won't use it on a cue. If you core Aboyna Burl at low speed with...

Thanks for sharing that point Joe.

ORCA II is a tribute cue showcasing Stew Mortson's Design Masterpiece ORCA which was a spin off of the celebrated 8 Point Jaws cue that he created in Bert Schrager's Shop. "Jaws on Steroids and Human Growth Hormones". This is a 12 Point Collaboration Cue I built as the cue maker 3 years ago...

You can sell ivory cues on Ebay. You just can not mention Ivory. They have a search engine looking for the word ivory. If you say 36 genuine white inlays the cue will not be pulled. These are legal issues moving forward and ebay don't want to get involved with Federal Law Suits. It is...

Brown can not be matched unless you have material from the same lot run. It is not the CM's fault. All you can do is try to match as best you can. I have 4 different browns in stock and can get close on a lot but matching perfect is not going to happen without luck. If Pete will not do other...

Need new linen or you won't get an even look after you refinish.

When you can walk on the rice paper and have not left a mark, then you will have learned grasshopper. Zen has learned for sure. He is The Master! Awesome cue Jive - Enjoy. Rick

CR, As a start, you need to have cue without runout and wraps with consistant thickness. Without those two things it is a very tedious undertaking. The cutting of the tight tolerance wrap Goove is up to you but you can't go wrong buying your wraps from Martin at Superior Cues. JMO You need...

I love this cue. Well to be honest I love all Joel's work. This one is very classy and clean in it's design.

I have seen PH 13 MM shaft at almost 6 ozs. I am delivering one tomorrow I just made it is 5.5 oz.

Larry, Atlas sells them now and also G2s are fairly new. Rick

Now that got me to laugh and it is very true at the same time!

A customer delivered a FS blank from Brett's shop to me for a cue build. He builds an excellent blank and I will have it buffed out this week. I will post it this week. Keep up the good work Brett, I am a fan. Rick

El CF, It's OK to call me out if it makes you feel warm a fuzzy. As I said, why post and then run away if you don't have time. What did you say your name was? Really? How do battery chargers blow up? Do they explode and turn into missile projectiles. What is your anonymous theory on...

He right! Stroker vs. Cow milker.

ElCFrio, Re read the OPs question. It was directed at Cue weights and differences concerning different players. Conservation and transfer of energy are relevant to any pool shot but why do you make a statement and then run away. If you don't have the time to do so, why engage in the first...

It totally depends on the ability of the player. F=MA. Force equals mass times acceptation is the model. If a player has the ability to put a big move on a cue ball with a potential to reach 30 mph for example, he wants a light cue around 17 oz. Give or take. Light cues can accelerate...

Mark, Duke of Pearl in Ca. I think his slabs are .070 thick. Yes carbide end mills work just fine. I use Envirotap cutting fluid on the table from Enco - no oil and Environmentally safe. Don't drop them on concrete, they break like glass. I learned the hard way. LOL Good luck, Rick
