Very nice!Always wanted an EP like this. I tell ya, it has not been easy to find someone who would let theirs go.
Ed's ring work is always phenomenal.
Congratulations on a beautiful cue!

That is an interesting (& correct) observation.
Very visual evidence that a uniform miter across several elements of which some are on a curve (top and bottom) and the matching elements are on a straight run (sides) can only occur with seamless continuity, if the miter itself curves.
An alternate approach is to make the curved vs straight elements subtly different in proportion, which is more accessible for smaller work. This is what actually happens if you perfectly miter stacks into a box, then install and shape the box to a curved surface: the verticals (in this case) become slightly wider at the surface of the curve; and hence visually span the slightly wider line of the curve at the miter into the top/bottom curved cross members.
Can't quite tell which approach was used.
But it is nice work!
smt<------has occasionally had to make "hunting miters" in curved-to-straight millwork. Or grind moulding knives differentially to make curved elements match the straight ones.
