Hi,
I'm very new to the pool cue world, and I have some questions about custom cues.
I know playability is very subjective, so let's leave it aside first.
My question is purely on the appearance of the cues.
What's considered a good/great custom cue?
1. Sharp points?
2. As many points as possible?
3. Cue finishing, what type of finishing is consider top notch? Lacquer? CA?
4. Inlays. I know most inlays are done by CNC. And the value/material of the inlays vary a lot. So let's leave it aside first.
5. Hand made or CNC? Lot's of work is done on CNC, but isn't it like a competition of who's having the best CNC equipment and CAD skills?
6. What else?
