Cole Dickson's last cue (Snakewood)

I found an old post on this. WillP(ibuycues) had a chance to buy the snakewood cue in question at DCC from Cole. The reason for no sale was no one knew what it was. It had no sign. or logo. Was not a Jensen.
 
This is the cue.
One shaft is curly maple.

I tried getting my last cue in snakewood but it was too volitile/young to be trusted to be cut and not kaplooey.
I settled for kingwood. Looks nice but I really wanted the snake.

Even old snakewood can crack, I had a Ginacue that had a snakewood buttsleeve and if you looked closely it was multiple pieces laminated. Large pieces of snake just end up cracking. So this cole dickson cue with a snakewood forearm is interesting. I think the cuemaker would have liked to do snakewood points as well but ended up with something structurally more sound. Just a thought. Hope to hear more about this cue

edit: laminated probably wrong description...pieces were side by side to make the sleeve
 
I believe I've closed in on who the cue builder of this cue was.

Judd Fuller.

BTW, Bob Manzino refinished the cue and put on the black Pig skin wrap.

I'll be putting it up for sale by the end of the week with a Mint Kelly black leather 1x2 case.

Beautiful cue, unique! What’s your asking price?

I have a cue that was made for Cole Dickson back in 1999. I don’t know how long Cole played with it.

Who made the cue you have? and can you share some pics?
