Hello Az'er's.. :)
Owner Rich has one "Bad Ass" TAD.. :)

How many of you would like to play a session of Pool with this..
Like a night sipping good quality Wiskey.
Just like the era captured in "The Color of Money".. :)

No metal Rings/Collars, except the Joint Screw (and maybe a a Joint screw and weighbolt ?)
Closest to "Unbroken Fiber".. :wink:

Made a "Matching" Joint Ring Assembly for the Cue Cap, but, looked a bit
distracting "By it's self", so, I made a "Plain JP" style Cue Cap for a spare.

The Satin Finish Crown was the original concept for this cue.
The Shaft side JP's are Rosewood, too, but,
the color comes so dark as soon as a sealer goes on them.. Looks like Brown Ebony.. :sorry:
Linen Phenolic Collars will darken with age..

Thank You Richard :)
Thanks all, for viewing.. :)

Alton :)

You are an artist and a genius, Alton.

Thank you so much for this amazing work. I will treasure it.

I cannot speak highly enough of Alton and I just feel lucky.
