No ... but if you admit you cut it faster then the other cue makers that sell snake oil and depend on BS to sell their wares call YOU a joke ... :grin-square:
When I started making cues about 8 years ago I sure did not wait years to cut the wood.
It was days.
I still have the first two cues I made on a Unique Cue Companion and a Taper/Shaper in a two bedroom apartment and both are still straight and playable despite my ignorance of the PROPER way to make a cue.
I guess I should fear that after another few years they might warp cause I did not make them PROPERLY, used the wrong glue, drilled instead of bored, did not dip it in anything, and a multitude of other mistakes PROPER cue makers just dont make.
Paul Dayton, I always thought you were a cut above using all the cue making smoke and mirrors and am very surprised you think it takes years to season a piece of wood and cut a forearm PROPERLY :sorry:
