I am sure you all know Alton Takata, the legendary Cue Cap maker and the person I would call the best on this planet. Alton made these caps for the pictured Bill Schick cue...I cannot, cannot say enough good things about Alton. And to add to that, Bill Schick's cue! Greatness in this sport is found like any, in the few, the meticulous, the precise, those that do not stop at "good enough" but push within and strive for perfection.
I have been fortunate enough to have cue caps from Alton made for another Bill Schick as well...Alton is the Miyamoto Musashi of our day, he is a superior swordsmen of his craft, a person who should be in the HOF of cue makers because his work is an extension of the cue makers...legendary HOF Bill Schick's cue is glorified by it's crown from Alton Takata. Alton...you Sir, are a God...Thank you so much for your time away from family making these and your ability to go above and beyond for people, always.

James, they came out beautiful!

Putting that cue in your hands was the right move for me. You're really giving her the "spa treatment"

ULTRA RARE CUE + ULTRA HIGH END CAPS = COLLECTION KEEPER!
 
Alton's skills and creativity distinguish him from everyone else; indeed, he's truly in a class all by himself.

p.s. If anyone happens to know of someone taking orders for custom designed protector sets,
aside from Jim B. or Lonnie W., I'd appreciate any contact info being sent to me via PM.

I have suggested that Alton should consider publishing a book of his cap work. I would certainly purchase one. What about you guys? Would you like to see a book of Alton's creations?

His talent surpasses anyone else in this niche of cue accessories, hell, it is a part of cue-making as far as I am concerned!
 
Beautiful work once again.

I always look forward to seeing work from Alton.
Most of my cues have caps that Alton did for me and maybe additional caps need to be ordered for at least one of them.

Thanks for posting...
