You are indeed correct Big Purd. Its actually one of the least stable of the woods used in cuemaking. It does tend to want to bend a bit. This is corrected when turning it down by going slow, slow, slow. With the curly maple I take smaller passes, more passes, with more time between cuts. If done correctly it has a much greater chance of permanent straightness.Purdman said:I was told by a Hall Of Fame cue maker that curly maple has a tendency to warp. He cores all his curly maple cues. Do you guys find this to be true? Just curious.
