Just installed a cork wrap on Mike's cue and thought I would share. You don't see a lot of cork wraps these days.

Nice work Bryan. It's too bad cork isn't more common. It really is one of the best feeling wraps there is.
 
Very cool Bryan, I owned a cue exactly like that one and its amazing how much better it looks with that wrap. I was speaking to someone about cork the other day and how it comes in different colors then just salt and pepper that you normally see. Can you do it in all black also and what is the charge to do something like this? :smile:
 
Nice job, you don't see more of it because it's very hard to and get it right. There is no stretch in cork to massage it in at the seam.

I haven't seen any cork material that is all black. I have a few pieces left that does have very small black flecks (rubberized) in it. The price is $100 for a cork wrap.

How durable is this type of wrap? It looks nice.

Great question, the cork without any rubber in it is fairly fragile at .025" thickness. Care must be take with it not to have any hard edges press into it or it will damage it. If a person is fairly careful it should last a very long time. Thanks for the compliment, Mike was very happy with it. The seam was very, very close to being invisible.
 
That has to be the perfect wrap for that Schon!I really love the look.Classy and simple very clean!Nice choice and great work thanks for sharing!!
