Afzalia Burl/Osage

[J&D CUSTOMS]

Here is the Burl cue I am working on. This is a pic of it after the 1st coat. Few more to go. Just wanted to share.
Thanx ,

Hmm. Looks good.

Was the prongs made by you? Maybe when the coating is done you could post a picture of the cue facing up and directly front and a close up of the forearm and the veneer points.

How do you like that osage? We have a common tree locally that is similar to osage, and the wood is bright yellow, hard & about as dense as maple. I have some cut up but have not used any. Seems like a great wood for cues, and is domestic.

I like Osage. It is very hard. I think it hit's harder than maple by quite a bit. I have 4 break cues I am building out of Osage and purpleheart as well. They should hit super hard. Will post some pics of them also when completed.
Thanx for the comments, sure master class , I will post some pics for you. Yes , I made the blanks.
Thanx ,
