I showed everyone the second cue I built tonight I also have the first cue I built ... This one was a little tougher and the ring work did not quite come out the way I had hoped ... So it will go in my show case as the first cue I built ... I built a player shaft with it and a Purple Heart break shaft with it ... The player shaft has a Everest tip on it the break shaft has a leather phenolic on it ... The second cue I built is the one I showed last night with the WHITE joint ... my first cue is the one with the Black joint and silver and purple heart ring work...

But I have Jeff working beside me and guys like you and Leon offering to help me with advice and your knowledge it iis going to come I just need to get more experience and it will only come with me continueing to build cues ... Me and Jeff keep talking and we both agree we need to upgrade machinary and alot of area's to get to where we want to go ... It will come but as you say it will all come with time ...
