I need the following cue built by April 10th, delivered...going to Taiwan for a month or so and I'm not bringing my "nicer" cues.

Purpleheart Sneaky Pete

59" in length, divided evenly shaft/butt (29.5"/29.5")

19.5 oz

Flat-faced STEEL joint

Radial Pin

Natural Phenolic joint collar (below steel joint)

Delrin buttcap, full length

Predator Shafts (partials provided by me)


I would appreciate ANY suggestions. I know the time frame is almost impossible but thought I'd give it a shot. Who can build me this cue by 4-10?

Thanks,
Roger

Roy just put up a Frey purpleheart- sounds close to your description- but the length may not be 59'. If you are wanting one made in that timeframe- I don't have any advice for you. Pete Ohman perhaps.
 
Who can build it?

Have you tried to contact Paul Fanelli in Clifton,NJ? Maybe Skip Weston, he's in New Jersey too.

Last time I spoke to Paul he was not happy with how some of the blanks for his sneakies were "behaving." He is a true perfectionist, and a rush job like this one is probably not for him.

Skip is busy building my third cue so I best not bother him as well :D

Thanks for the suggestions, they are both my first choice but given the circumstances I have to look elsewhere.

I have two for you. I am certain that Scot Sherbine can build it for sure by then or Michael Webb. I would call who ever you prefer. These gentlemen are both hard working guys and build nice SP's.

Thanks Chris. I think I'm going to have Petree do this one for me, he has a couple of purpleheart blanks turned and ready to go.

Btw, I believe (but could be wrong) that Paul Fanelli was having problems with the Shmelke blanks.
