most unusual build request

[desi2960]

had a customer see one of my cues and decided i was the guy for his build. we discussed his wants, and after a time decided they would look best in ebony, using moose, and black and white rings.. he sent the materials for the inlays, i took then using my jewelry tools and sliced them to about 1 - 1 1/2 mm thick, cut the pockets by hand, glued them into place and finished over them.

Ok . Who's tooth?

the buyer's

he had his wisdom teeth removed at a younger age, he kept them for inlays. there are 4 of them in the buttcap.


thats the reason for the thread title, the customer wanted his teeth inlayed in the butt cap.

Now that is funny. At least Chuck knew what he was doing and "did not bite off more than he could chew."

I think when the teeth were removed, so was the wisdom.

Guess you can say you "cut your teeth" on this one...

If a ball gets hung up in the Jaw ....ah never mind.
Hey very creative. Make sure it's sees his cuemaker every 6 months for a cleaning and check up:killingme::killingme:
Just curious. Does dental insurance cover that.

Well if he ever looses the cue....DNA evidence built right in !! I just don't know how he will brush and floss with the teeth under the finish ?! :killingme:

Hope the cue isn't at risk for gingavitis.

what a bizarre thing to want though

Bizarre

Hopefully this cue gets played with until it becomes long in the tooth

Wow Chuck, a Cue Maker and now a Doctor of Dentistry! Your resume keeps getting longer. Don't you just love it when a customer has a crazy request and we are able to produce the product he is looking for. Keeps our creative juices flowing. Look forward to possibly getting together this summer. Looks like a Sedalia trip is brewing. greg
