Here is another look at an amazing piece of art disguised as a cue, by the master.......Tony Scianella. I was around as part of the inlays were being put into this one. Some of the pieces were so small, I couldnt see them without a loop. Once this baby grabs your eye, you cant drag it off....LOL

That's another monster cue from the master. Tony is a gifted guy and we are fortunate to be able to see his genius. Nice cue Steve.

Thanks for letting us mere mortals see these. Without huge close-ups you can't even see all of the tiny inter-connecting parts & what they're made of! Tony's work is just insane.
Wish you could do a "scratch and stroke".;)
 
Another nice cue you have there. If you ever feel like donating one of your nice cues please place me at the top of your list!
 
I was lucky enough to meet Tony and his grand son at the US Open last year and he's a real nice person to talk to. I just wish I could afford one of his cues. Steve, this is another cue to go into the group of "nicest cues i've ever seen". Tony is the man when it comes to cue art. I know there are other great cue makers in the cue world, but IMO nobody can top Tony! His cues just make you say "How did he do that".......

James, thanks so much. Tony and Donny are great to hang around with. Just be carefull that they dont hustle you into a texas hold em game.....because if they do...............you will not be able to afford your way home...LOL
 
Great looking cue! Did it not come with a matching shaft though? What do you chalk, the tip of the pin? Must play pretty stiff. :D

Damn......I knew there was something wrong. It was really hard getting chalk to stay on that pin................I'm going to call Tony and complain.

Thanks for tipping me off
 
You look like you're going to crush Tony. If ya bear hug him too much he won't be building you any more cues.
 
Steve, your collection is breathtaking to say the least. For this reason, I get much less done at work: :D I do ,however enjoy work much much more. :rotflmao1:

Wow that is an awesome cue!!! Even the buttcap looks done right...:wink:

that ivory crown butt cap is the triple nuts, Its only my opinion but I believe its the sexyist in the cue making biz, it opens up the doors for a 8pt cue above it like nothing else could, and perhaps a 4 point cue as well. It would look dumb on a 6pt cue(I think??, but I could be wrong-i'm not to artistic).

This particular Boar reminds me of Jeanette Lee for some reason, whe would look great playing with it, It just needs a dab of red on the 4 centers on the heel(butt sleve) to be perfect match for her. I have thought that since I first saw this cue last year. Perhaps I said that in a post. I cant remember.


Of all your Boars Steve this is perhaps my favorite, I believe it is.

If this was my cue I'd use it as a daily payer until the paint was all wore off.:thumbup:
