Here are some pictures of an 8 point cue that I just finished. It is 8 points tiger stripe into heavy figured bocote forearm with a birdseye handle with some tiger striping and an 8 point butt sleeve (tiger stripe into bocote) with black phenolic callars and a radial pin. I built this cue with Chris Hightowers Deluxe Cue Lathe.

Very pretty Cue. What size pin is that?:)

Good work.:D

It's a radial pin, right?

DAMN that cue is real real nice. My style cue. I really like it a lot.
 
Nice looking cue. I've had my mind on a similar cue. I was thinking of a 6 pointer, with stitch rings, a plain butt sleeve and a linen wrap..
 
That's nice. I like cues that have a lot of all high points. I don't much care for the high/low combination.
 
Really like the grain of the forearm and the treatment of the ringwork. Nice, clean craftsmanship. I don't care for the points in the butt sleeve, but that is just personal taste. Everything else looks pretty dang good!
 
Looks like you're doing some pretty serious work with that lathe. Congrats!
