If you use Chrome, get the extension "Photobucket Embeded Image Fix". I was able to see all of the photos.

So, I use Chrome, got the extension, and still unable to see the photos. What did I do wrong?

Let's see if I can get these to attach....

The fullsplice, there is allot to be said about the fullsplice cue. I think of it like a classic muscle car. It looks good and it's very tough. Building a fullsplice cue is no easy task, as it took me years to learn the methods used. I am going to take you through the steps of building a monster 8 point fullsplice cue with veneers on all points. The woods that will be used will be Ebony, Saple, and spalted maple. The techniques used to build this cue are a very old-school traditional style. I just wanted to show people how much work goes into building one of these cues. I will put a brief description above each picture. There are allot of pictures so follow along.

Nice Job. Always liked his cues, too bad he did not continue.

I think Darrin is still making cues. He was involved with a cue called 'AXIS' for a while. https://www.facebook.com/axiscues/photos

Here are two cues I've got from AXIS cues. I believe Darrin does make the cues for the company. Haven't spoke to him directly, but have heard his name brought up when I was speaking to Kurt about having my cue and shafts made.

Good to hear.
Nice woods used in those sneakies.
