Very nice cue. Personally I think a black textured leather wrap would just be kick ass.

Is it laminated? I didnt think he did his handles laminated. If it is laminated is it flat or radially laminated?

Flat lam...its clear to see in pic #1. Nothing wrong with that & it doesn't necessarily give it a "softer" hit either. Schon has used flat lam handles for years...so do a lot of other makers.
KV<<<<<<<<<<<<has used flat lam handles & likes them.:)
 
I'm always happy to hear from y'all about my latest cue conquests! :D
Thanks a ton for the compliments and comments.

And thanks for the input on the leather. I'll give it some thought. If nothing else, I can always change it later, but I kind of wanted to keep this cue lookin' "low-key," if ya know what I mean...


BEST WISHES TO ALL OF YOU!

That cue is screaming for rings.
I would have gone w.the classic long white Delrin buttcap.
 
Blk and White Ringtail Lizard. (real Lizard) I have a skin I will sell you. 50.00 and you'll get 3 wraps out of it.. Send it to Chris and ask him to wrap it with it. Call him first.
 
Nice Ebony

I do concur with Joey for sure...I love Delrin!
 
Add me to the votes for the Black Leather wrap!

The cool thing about the leather on this cue is that it will match the ebony better, longer. With a black and white linen wrap, the black will fade from wear. Not so with leather.

Plus think of the way it will feel!
 
Lol...
I know, I know...
Leather would be the premium choice here, but I'm kind of avoiding making this cue "premium," ya know?

But like I said...I could always change it post-production........right? :rolleyes:


Regardless, I've got plans for a real nice Nitti that will be in the works soon. This ebony player is just a different beast altogether.
I'll post some pics of my design for the fancy Nitti one of these days...
 
Hey....how about a black leather wrap?? That would set the cue off, huh?

:D :D :D

As long as you're happy with the results, then all is well. Really nice and dark ebony, sir. Excellent work by Mr. Nitti.

Now...go buy a piece of black leather! :p :p
