hello there jim, sure send some my wayBuckeyejim said:Hey Brent,would you like me to send you some real wood (Bocote)while the river is still runnin' swift? Just kidding,that is some colorful PHeart! Is that enhanced by stain also? That could be your FLYING PURPLE PEOPLE EATER...sorry really bored today,respectfully Jim
missed your questionBuckeyejim said:Marietta- must be at least 150 mi. upstream. I'm not a cue maker,just like to take 'em for a spin! I do like your work and I'll try to get something from you as soon as I can.

as colorblind as i am, my idea of purple is prolly different than other peoplesdukeboy1977 said:Hey Brent, feel free to send me these nicer pieces ANY time you wishMy list of purpleheart lovers is pretty small buddy, it seems noone likes it cause of its purple color. lol Its been mentioned before that its easy to get a game if you walk in with a purple cue...I'm gonna have to try that sometime
I gotta leave this town first, lol, but I think that would be quite the adventure!

this cue was designed by a guy in phillipines to look like that buss cue you havePizza Bob said:Here's my St. Louis cue (also made the BB 3rd Ed color plates)...
dukeboy1977 said:lol, You're a funny guy Brent...We gotta meet some day man! I think I'd REALLY enjoy that! Even being colorblind, it looks like you can choose your woods very well. Hey, can you or have you ever been shown how to make sneaky pete's? I'm still looking for my ultimate cue! ebony with a purpleheart forearm. I almost had one once, but that fell through...I've waited long enough, time to have it!! lol

he emailed me those same pictures almost a year ago
wanted me to copy best i could
oh, i wouldn't have even if i could. he just wanted the same woods with purpleheart butt cap and joint. i don't want to "copy" anyone. when talking to someone via emails from the phillipines it's very hard to convey exactly what he wants to me. the pics helped a lot but i already had it in my head of how i was going to do it before he sent me pics.Pizza Bob said:While imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I guess I'm with Jimbo on this issue (Oops! Can I say that on here?). Thank you for not making it identical. The cue is special to me and Jim Buss is a good friend.
Adios,
Pizza Bob
