Also, if i forgot a cuemaker that makes em' nice at a decent price, let me know with some info... thanks.
 
I have a Jerico cue (Jerry Powers). Jerry does great work, not sure about his price range because the cue I have is over 12 years old. He's very reasonable and stands behind his work.

T9BK,

if you are at the Super Billiards Expo stop by at our booth(25). You can test hit our cues and see if you like'em. I would be happy to make you an offer for your custom cues as designed.

I have one of Chad Carter's first cues and it hits nice! I'm going to be sending it back to him soon for a refinish and a new shaft.

Another cuemaker you might try is Dominiak. Bill and Aaron make super hitting and looking cues at a VERY reasonable price. www.dominiak.com is their site. I have a couple in stock, one of them has similar diamond inlays and I'm sure could easily be adjusted to your design. One of the cues they sell similar to your design, but without the diamond inlays retails for about $249-$299. I'm sure you could get your design for under $450. I'm not Dominiak, but I've dealt with them for a while and have a good idea about their cues.

Hey Muxy,

You didn't post your range so it is kind of tough to recommend without it.

Thanks,
Dave

Muxy - take a look at Markus' company. You've never hit anything like a Eurowest... I assure you that! :D

I was looking at International Cue Makers, page and seen a lot of them starting at 200 bucks, i am limiting myself to under 400 american.. hopefully i can get what i want for that, if not i will jsut buy a production cue :(

Well, one thing that would up the cost of your cue, are the inlayed rings.
Actually, the ones you have drawn remind me of Samsara.
You would be better off with some "simple" slot/stitch rings, but that is JMHO.
 
When i PM'ed Eurowest i told him jsut ot figure in maybe just notches or something, something to lower the cost, i almost had and idea of 2 diamond inlats somehting like this

_____^_____^______

The carrot symbol representing where the diamond would be, and jsut silver ring material (?) connecting them maybe, I am getting quotes of the price from 10 cuemakers. Thanks for your input Big John
