Cues #3 and #4 Complete please take a look

[cuewould]

Cue # 3 is Tulip wood and ebony...The veneers are black white black,the ferruleless shaft was my friend Stans idea .......Cue #4 is Blood wood and ebony It was supposed to have 4 points but I broke one so I cut it up and did 3 small points....Which made that my first 6 point cue...I'm still doing linen wraps but this next bunch should be all leather....Thanks for lookingView attachment 143367

I like the plain straight grained forearms. I see some birdseye figure but nothing that distracts from your point work. I also like the thin rings. I tend to prefer wood ringwork to silver at the joint collars. Thanks for posting the pics.

Really like the look of the cue...and I bet the playability is right up there especially with the shaft that has no ferrule. Nice job...could you please PM me the price for the cue if it's for sales.

Yes, not too overly done with the birds eye....The thin ring were fun I had to sand them to get them right but.....now I have a better cutting system....Thank you for looking

Realize....I pm'd you a while back to say I liked your avatare ...very different..tell me about it.....Anyways the wood (bloodwood) handle cue was my first. It's up there getting a real finish...(it just had oil before...nice job, but just oil) Anyways that cue hits realy well but it is a mess, the boxes don't line up and it's a little lite....It was made for a freind to check my hook up ....You know ,how my basic methods were....Thanks for looking and I'd like to hear about your avatar.....Thanks again ...Ray Weeks

Cuemaster, thank you for your comments, and yes the shaft without the ferrule does get peoples attention....In fact Dennis Hatch played with it a while back and loved it .....But he said I should put a leather wrap on it....Thanks again for looking ......Ray Weeks
