Full splice cues

[Rangercap]

Anyone cuemakers want to share pictures of a full 4-point splice procedure? I can visualize it, but have yet to see it done with actual machinery. If you do build this way, do you use a milling machine, or table saw, or both?

Here is a LINK, that Murray Tucker posted a while back. A table saw, or a milling machine can be used, but the milling machine is a far better option. I noticed the title says "Full Splice Cues". The handle section would be different. It would be made on a bandsaw. You cut a "V" in the end then turn it 90 degrees and cut another "V". You will then have 4 prongs coming out of one end.

Thanks. I figured a bandsaw would work, too, with a wide resaw-type blade. But was unsure. Thanks for the link.

Use a 1" blade minimum to prevent drifting, 2" is better if your bandsaw will handle that.
