Here is Joel’s latest creation...
A project that started 3-4 years ago with the last piece of Burtons maple stock. Because I love sugar skulls this was made in the style to represent the “Day Of The Dead”. I’m thrilled to say the least with this unique beast. Joel proves time and time again his attention to detail and artistry. He’s the best IMO. Thanks again Joel and a special thanks to Margaret’s mother for making the ultra cool ornament purely out of thread. :eek:
Hope you guys enjoy it.

Ps. Yes it is one piece of maple from joint to butt with a ss joint. And it shines like a pile of diamonds.
Haha

Such an unbelievable job. He even made it so the skull has depth with shading in the eye sockets. Such incredible detail. Enjoy.

Not that my opinion is of any real consequence to others on the Forum but Mr. Hercek’s workmanship
is the best of the best in cue-making. Joel still remains #1 in my ranking of cue-makers; I wish I owned
one of his cues but alas, some things are not meant to be so instead I just gush with admiration & envy
when I read VBBR’s posts & view some of his cues. Maybe before I reach room temp I’ll own a Hercek.

Another outstanding piece from his incredible portfolio of works of art cues.

Impeccable execution as usual.
