Redoing a Huebler that had an A joint problem. Pretty much fixed that. Now doing the clear coat. I put the epoxy on it and about fell over.. what type of wood is this? (I hope it pops like this after the final coat of CA)

Did you sand the old finish off and no stain? Could it be walnut? How about another picture.
Sanded off what was left. No stain
Looks like goncalo alves.
If it's heavy.

I had a similar question a while back about a Huebler repair I did. Never got an answer though. It looks like it could be the same wood. And you are right, it looks great with the finish.
I wasn’t doing epoxy yet, so this is just CA.

Wow... nice work!
That looks a bit like a Davis-blank cue I have made from moabi. Mine is rubbed oil finish and has very nice chatoyance.

Just a thought, I really have no idea what Huelber used in cues.

I can't tell from your picture, But if has a 3d affect when you look at it it may be Olive wood.
They're making it too complicated
