Hi Steve
The steady rainy days for a month and a half have limited my spraying time, but I just shot the last coat on your cue. I had it all rubbed out and shiny, but saw a few small blems, so scuff and the last coat is now drying. I will rub it out this weekend, and should be ready to ship next week. I really like the combination of woods you selected, there is a lot to look at in the cue, and though it is 19.5 oz, it does not feel at all heavy to me. I whacked some balls with it before I applied the finish, and it hits (whatever that means!) the way I like. I like to hear the solid thunk of the leather hitting the cueball, with no extraneous vibrations or other noises. If you like a cue that "clicks", you're out of luck. The medium Mooris are a bit harder than the Triangles I usually use, but since you requested Moori tips, you should know how they play.
I'm going to take your cue out of the spray booth now, and it will sit until I give it the final rub. I hope you like it as much as I liked making it.

I will ship the cue first thing Monday, and will email you with tracking no.

Hi Steve
Just sent out your cue...now I'll be nervous until you have received it, so please let me know when it arrives. Should reach you by noon, Tues.
Tracking no. US.
So thanks again, I am hoping you are satisfied with the cue and enjoy using it.

....shocking yes - a cuemaker shipped a cue on the day that he said it was going to go out. It came next day and I got it by 11AM. Shocking that he replied almost the same day each time. I told a friend I was like a kid on Christmas along with being a surgeon as I carefully unboxed it, first looking at the shafts and then pulling out the entire cue one small section at a time
