I have read many posts on the dangers of building cues for a living. Starvation being the major one.Most seem to do it along with another profession. Who out there is doing it as an expensive hobby? None of my current hobbies are cheap(POOL CUES,boats,golf,snowmobiles,cars)tried them all. Have the woodshop and the Cue Companion I have been working with. Lack the experience, Hightower Deluxe and the materials. I like playing but I am falling hard for the instrument. Somebody please talk me into that Hightower! I think..........Kyle
