I like unusual cues - Here's 2 - Show yours...

Here is one I made a few years ago. Curly narra front with pink ivory points, bone ring work and bacote butt sleeve. Joint is Elforyn.

I really like your cue. Reminds me of a Sugartree cue I just had that featured purpleheart points into bacote (see below) - that thing played tricks with my eyes.

Nice job you did RC!

I've got a Winston cigarettes pool cue that looks just like a giant tapered cig:

(bad pic, but you get the idea).


I suppose that isn't what you meant by the thread title, but it is unusual, and almost always gets a laugh when I break it out. :grin:

This is exactly what I meant!

Now, I want one, too.

Do you realize we have a Cue and Case Gallery for showing off your cues?

You're probably right, Frankenstroke.

Sorry about that. :o

I was thinking that weird/unusual examples of cues would fit in here on the main forum.

Wonder what the guys over at cue gallery would have thought of the Winston cigarette cue? :wink:

I'm wondering what colors you guys have painted your Cars, after seeing the cues. I have used Pink Ivory for inserts before,with a 3/8-10 pin. mark

Hollywood;

Pink ivory can really jazz up a cue, IMO.

You have pics of your PI inlayed cue?

Yes, I actually have two of them. :D

The one I shoot with occasionally had a stock plain white shaft so my buddy who found me both the cues put a nice aftermarket shaft on and it actually shoots shockingly well now. It's light (17.15 or so) and about 3 or 4" short for me, but it shoots pretty well, and as I said, always gets a laugh. :)



VVV lol!

The guys over there...the guys over here...We're all the same guys. There are no fences. (Except around the Action forum.)
 
Yea, I have a few...

My 1/1 Thompson custom, curly maple, snakewood butterflies, ambola burl rings/joint/buttcap;

1/1 original Thompson "8 ball cue". Cue is configured with 8 premium woods with a butterfly design carried on finger jointing. Look close at this cue, to design it must have been mind boggling;
