how to make a decent cue in a few easy steps
- Thread starter tikkler
- Start date
LOL that was the best description of building a cue I have ever read!!!!!!its certainly not too hard, just walk around your yard and look for a nice chunk of lumber. When you hone in on a real wild and crazy piece, just bring it inside and then sit down and doodle a little picture of whatever comes to mind. Now remember you have a long way to go, so dont take too much time on the picture part. When you get these two done lay them on a table like this and take a pic, so you wont forget how easy it all was.
Okay, so now you go down into the basement and find that old Dremel tool that you used once and get it ready. Insert a very ultra sharp 45 thousanths bit into that baby and get ready to start carving, your as good as done by now....well almost
Well dont put that trusty Dremel away just yet. you have a bunch of white plastic type pieces to cut up still, but make sure that you put the 65 thousanths bit on, because this white plastic type stuff is hard. Then just stick them in the holes...
Now when you thought you were just about ready to finish up, you realize you still had some holes to fill....well stop reading this crap and get going
So here we are with only a few short steps and Wallah a big bad cue. But it looks kinda dull so grab a can of polyurethane and go to town on that chunk of lumber. And to top it all off get some nice contact paper to put over that bare wood in the middle. When you are done it should look something like this, or maybe a little better. And I would bet that you should even be able to talk some unsuspecting schmo into buying it for at least $200 maybe more. Well good luck on your cue building and if you have any problems just call BIG STEVE THE CUSTOM WRAP SPECIALIST.
What a master piece.. Now that is some serious work there!!!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Thanks for sharing the pics!!
Are you really Eric Crisp? Lol
Don't worry...
Don't worry Steve even if for sale a week later who's gonna buy it in the big boys club when they can buy it from the man himself ? I think he'll be stuck with that one IMO

Thank you Todd, I certainly will. there are so many people on here that love looking at cues, just like I do. and the same few that always have problems, are just never going to be happy....too bad
Holy but kissing monkies
Mr Steve,
How you find the patience to post lately is incredable. As usual impressive. I can never say hay without reminding you if you ever sell the Cochran's ring me up!

But Kissing Nicki Boy
Nick, you have some brown on your nose. Maybe you are a bit close and should back off. Steve doesn't need your petty reminders about selling his Scruggs and Cochran cues to you. Besides this is a Black Boar thread.
Steve, You have a fine collection. Keep on posting please.

Good post Steve. I don't understand either. But I do know the word for it - jealousy....
How can someone with a few BB's make fun of someone with 16? And most are huge cues.
Not to mention very big cues from most every other highly desirable cuemaker in existence. Makes zero sense.
If you don't like someone's post, pick up your shine box and move along.

Now you are bordering on fraud. Stop pushing that kit! Have you made people aware of the dangers of power tools? My two piece kit is honest and true. :smile:
Now it's just a bunch of laughs eh?
We'll see. Me and my people are in this for the long haul and are prepared to serve the consumer..
Wow
wow just amazing cues the first set to the last is insane
what kind of luck do you need, when you have dremel 3000 in your back pocket........here are a few i popped out yesterday, and never had to change the bit
[/size
so being i had a spare couple of hours this morning i made these
and after dinner tonight i cranked out a few more
wow just amazing cues the first set to the last is insane
Enough
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, with these lame comments about your phony two piece junk kit......and to dare call a Dremel a simple power tool, like it was a plain old multi level water jet synchronized CNC milling table. HA. I say. HA
The Dremel is the finest piece of power equipment ever produced in China.....of course it was invented here, but never mind that, let's back to the incredible Dremel. Not to mention the insanely precision ground diamond studded ultra tiny 45 thousandths cutting bit, which gives you the incredible sharp, and I mean super sharp points on every inlay.....just ask Thomas Wayne. well maybe not him, just ask Larry Slipcreet. you probably know Larry from his incredible work at Tuccos bar and grill in Queens, where he polishes the balls on there one bar table.......but anyway
My team of attorneys are poised and ready to pursuit this fiasco of a kit that you are promoting. One more word and I will have no choice but to look up there number and have them spring into action....you have been warned SIR

You guys have it all wrong.
If you want beautiful inlays you need to have a CNC mill.
You then scribe some lines for reference and make sure the cue is clamped securely.
Lining up the scribe lines is a little tricky but with practice it's not bad.
