Cobra Skin

[Quesports]

I was in an antique store the other day and saw a five foot long cobra skin for sale. It is a real skin with the head and all intact. It did appear wide enough at approximately 5 or 6 inches wide and certainly long enough for a wrap. Is it possible to soften it again and use it for a wrap??

I'm not a cuemaker, but I do know snake skin. Yes, the skin can be be rehydrated, stretched, and used to cover a cue.

Hey Cuedog, Personally I think Jerry makes a great cue, I'd love to see a pic of his. I own two of his cues as well as a Lambros, Skip Weston and a Kikel and seem to play a ball or two better with Jerry's cues. I guess they just fit my game.
