Brent you mean you're turning down the offer I made on it?! :eek:

This cue is gorgeous... I envy him for snagging it. I hit a few balls with it at the Windy City show and it hit exactly like the hickory burl BHQ. Which is great. I'm sure he'll be happy with it.


If not he can send it my way :thumbup:
 
Nice cue, Brent

I like the new rings that you are building nowadays.

Perhaps it is time to talk about a play cue. ;)

Marcel<--needs a matching play cue for his BHQ break cue and BHQ jump cue. :D
 
bois de rose

here is a cue with the redder color. it varies greatly.

I think this is a great looking cue . I had to have it and havce been wanting to try a Bhq for some time . Jamie said they are a little thinner in the handle which is something I like a lot in a cue . Keep up the great work Brent and we'll talk soon about a Brazilian butterfly cue:thumbup:
 
I too, love your ring work.

I think the other thing you do right is not to screw up cues with a ton of inlays. Instead you use great wood and let the wood tell the story instead.

Inlays are like too much makeup on a woman. If they need THAT much makeup then they are too damn ugly.

You just keep getting better.

I do have a bad question, how much stuff to you screw up?

Brent, you sure you didn't grab some ebony or African blackwood by accident? I thought Stevie the squirrel was helping you with the colors...?
It's an awesome cue, but really looks more like black than purple

It's bois de rose.

I saw it without finish / after really close up.

It's definitely red, but barely.


If lenoxmjs decides to sell this I think it'll end up in my hands eventually...

I've had a thing for this cue for a long time now. Wish I snagged it now.

in the right lighting or sunshine,
even i can see that is purpleish colored, it's definitley not ebony or blackwood
it's dark, very dark purple

i have more of this bdr, took a rag with thinner,
wiping down a bunch of pcs to verify it.
danny ddadams was down here visiting and "assisted" :p
looked like wiping up spilled grape juice , didnt it danny?
i labeled all of it, and keep it away from the ebony

dave> stevie the squirrel isnt around much anymore
i think he's getting old
or maybe he got a girlfriend?
