Thanks for the nice comments. Ryan did a great job on this. I can't say enough about his customer service and professionalism. Design wise, I certainly don't think this is everyone's cup of tea, but that is OK. I like rare (especially when it comes to materials) and it fits my ALL burl PJ collection well.

Thanks for checking it out... :thumbup:
 
It's *almost* too much burl, but maybe there's no such thing.

Those rings work. Ryan is top notch.

Is that even wood? Nice cue btw

Yeah Box Elder burl is crazy stuff. Takes dye better than most any other burl....


Yep it's all wood.... Harvested it myself. Cut it, dried it, sent it out to be professionally double dyed and stabilized and then sent it down to Ryan.... This is what it looked like before I sent it to Ryan ..... :thumbup:

VERY cool cue with AWESOME woods.

I would love to have Lambros make me a cue with a Jet BLACK Ebony forearm with 5 super long points (no Veneers) made from that Red Box Elder Burl & use the Red Box Elder Burl for the butt sleeve finished off with a nice jet black Bison leather wrap. :thumbup:

Thanks Chrippa... JMurphy, The butt sleeve length isn't a problem but its hard to find box elder burl in longer lengths, then it has to be pure white or it doesn't take the processing correctly.

Someday I will own a cue with points..... This was my first segmented cue, so baby steps..... :p
 
Lost...

in the wood for days...
I would imagine holding that cue under proper light would be mesmerizing...
Beautiful work!!
