I don't know if you've seen this cue in another thread so I'll post up a pic.
I think redwood and ebony go together perfectly.
This one doesn't have any clear yet

 

[shewmake]

[cuejo]

Redwood burl looks fantastic when completed

Steve Dunkel did a super nice cue with copper.
I don't know how it would look with the deep red of the redwood.

I'm partial to white Juma

 

[shewmake]

do you think silver would look better for the rings or do something diffrent from the double ringwork

copper

I have been using copper for about 7 years. And as far as metal rings in a cue it is mainly all I use. You just have to know what to put next to it to set it off.

Thanks for the compliment Cuejo. I First saw a cue a few years ago made by John Rocket with Copper. That was my inspiration for using copper in a cue. I like to give credit where credit is due.

make cue stand out

TRY this.
first ,,measure your cue , not thickness, but length. Be very accurate.
Then, have a cuemaker make you a shaft exactly one inch longer than all your friends cues. This will definately make yours stand out at least an inch more than theirs.
lol good luck

 

[owll]

wow, that is really nice looking darcy!
