Ok, this is a bit different, seen something similar but was on some real high end cues.

I was sent a box full of Cue Ball. What in the heck am I going to do with a box full of these things. Thought about making some Butts, Joints and ferrules, but that gets a bit boring on my end.

Was talking to one of my buddies about all these flipping cue balls and he said "make some cues up and number them"

So after some further talking, this is what we came up with, not sure if it would be a big hit or just belly flop.

Still details but the plan:

Do 10 cues, sign and number them from 1-10
Cues are conversions-Dufferins or 4 Prong full Splice
Cue ball butt, joint and a ferrule
First come first serve on picking a number
Matching JP's
Inlayed or Not-Decide before we start
$350 to $600 depending on what you(10 Customers) decide to do before we start
10 weeks to finish them all

Everything nailed down before we start

This would do a couple of thing

Me-Gives me something to do other than making Cue Parts
Help fund the next piece of equipment

You-Gives you something a bit different than a normal old build
Will be interesting and fun. Great cue to boot.
(had a couple people ask about using one of their sneaky petes or house cues)
Would be ok

Last call.

Time to start, if you are interested, but don't have the deposit now, but will soon, let me know. Hate to see someone miss out if they are truly interested is something a bit different from the norm. I'm really excited and am ready to start.

Also have two that wanted to do the build, but have not answered PM's on the specs of their cue, will leave them up until we start, if no contact is make by that date, you will have to be removed.

OK, I have started, have all the blanks for the orders. I also have 5 extras, 2 Bacote, 2 Cocobolo, and 1 ebony if anyone is interested.
Had a few want one, but never heard back, figured would give one more opportunity.
Pm for details, going to be some real nice affordable unique cues

This ended up being a bust, paid up front for the cue and he never delivered. He's dropped off the face of the earth I guess, with our $.

Worst cue maker transaction I've ever had, period.
 
Post who he is and where he is from....
I don't want to deal with this guy and
I need to know who he is ... so I don't
get stung .
