Just a heads up. One of my shooters, James Barcks sent a cue to someone on the East coast and Mail Box ect. apparently lost it. It is a natural birdseye Merrywidow with snakewood stitch rings. The finish had broken loose on the shaft joints from riding up against my chuck on my repair lathe. No points or inlays. It has Ivory joint and butt cap. Just thaught maybe someoone out here might see someone using it. Butterflycues
