Kenny Koo provided the leather.
His leather is top notch.
Very even and consistent.
I put this one and the seam is very good.

Great line. Thanks Dave.
I got lucky on this one.
I wanna thank my friend makers who shared me some secrets to the art of leather wrapping .
I don't want to drop their names as they would get bombarded .
They know who they are.
I killed close to 30 wraps I think to get this one to the point I am happy with.
I even shot the couch. :-)
I have several cuts in my hands from trying different cutters. In the end, I concluded you need different blades for different tasks .
And watching videos of some people do it is a good start to mess up a ton of wraps until everything sinks in and you start thinking and thinking and trying and killing more leather :rolleyes:

I have more respect for the old masters who did it without any clues from other masters who kept their secrets.
Next time I see a Martin or Bushka with leather wrap, I'll appreciate it more.
 
I get disposable scalpels from a friend. I get 2 wraps then Toss it.

Exacto knife is good too. Takes practice to get your hand right and steady but worth the time in the end
 
I'm looking forward to getting this cue Joey!


Thank you very much for the positive experience.

Nice Job Joey!

I can't see the seam either. Looks great. Someone (CMD) is getting a killer cue!
