Hello
I am new to AZ, what a cool site... I have an old Brunswick billiard cue I had done about 4 years ago. She is a little plain but plays great and I love it. I would love to see some other work like this so come on lets see what you have.

Thank You

PS Can anyone date this cue?

I like your conversion, who did it for you?

Btw welcome, and thanks for sharing your pics :thumbup:
 
Local Guy

This is from a local guy in Indy, Fred Fairchild... I have done some pool table work for him in the past and he did me right. I smile every time I take it out of my case and she gets a lot of looks too.
 
no, not my work.
i cant even make chop-sticks if you provided me bamboo.
when they arrive, i will post new pixs.
 
Just Finished

I just finished this one. Believe it or not it was cracked almost in half at the points. After being repaired and turned down, I can't even tell where the crack was. The shaft was made out of the front of the cue. It was straight and I was able to salvage it. It has a really nice hit. Gotta love old wood...wait that sounded creepy.

Nice

Once agian the colors are great... Wish mine had a little but can't bring myself to have it turned, feel like I'm steeling HER history. Sentimental about my "old wood", can't beat it...:thumbup::thumbup:
 
Very nice cues, I love them all. Here is my second John Showman titlist. Brazilian Rosewood, blank from the 40's. Welcome to a great place. Rod.

This is my cue that I converted from a Schmelke full splice blank.
