Can camphor burl (cinnamomum camphora) be used in making a cue? It's some of the best looking wood I have ever seen

Yes but it's best for inlays and points and must be cored in most other cases, not very stable, but then again there aren't any Burls that are. I have seen cues made of that wood and they don't look the same round as that board does.

He has the most pics of exotic woods I have seen on the net. I don't think the guy sells, just likes to collect exotic wood. Here's an example of the type of wood that my next cue is to be made of.
