Hello,

here is the design of my new cuestick with tahiti blacklip mother of pearl in the little windows.

Heino Klosek will build my dream with makassar ebony, tahiti blacklip and mammoth ivory.

Very clean design - love those windows. Inlays look very sharp and clean too... Yes, I'm interested in learning more about the cuemaker too.
 
The windows are ready to insertion. 0,01181 inch thickness, very thin mammoth ivory.

Best,

Andreas

Mammoth ivory topped macassar ebony joint protectors. Not finished, the numbers of the shaft protectors left.

I'm always curious when I see a cuemaker closing sales based on computer renderings of cues that don't yet exist - "virtual cues", if you will. Bill Stroud had a website a number of years ago that featured this idea, but it failed to take off (or he lost interest).

From my experience the rendering software available enables one to make a virtual cue look a lot more sexy than the real thing. I'm not saying it has to be that way, just that the computer-artist side of the equation would have to be careful to not create too much sizzle with the art that the cuemaker side couldn't satisfy with the steak.

So here's an opportunity to test my theory first hand...

Are you at all disappointed that the [almost] razor-thin points in the imaginary rendering aren't manifested in the reality of the cue? I mean, the points shown in the pitch image would have to cut with a 0.010" bit (0.25mm) or smaller, but in the actual cue they're obviously done with something on the order of 1mm or bigger. To my eye the disparity is huge, and I'm curious if you see that as a bad thing or if doesn't matter in the end result...?

Hi,

the cuemaker told me that the ends of the point are too sharp, it is OK for me. We talked a lot about the design and we find a way but I'm too lazy to edit the renderings :wink:

Thank you very much for your comment Mr. Wayne.

Best regards,

Andreas Pahlke

i'd say that if it was used exclusively for a sales tactic with no disclaimer, then i would consider it very mis-leading
 
Hello,

the pin is now include too.
A ring at the forearm and the butt is include too, we got a lot of mammoth. The last step is the finishing for 4 or 5 times.
I hope I can play the stick in the next 2 -3 weeks.

Beautiful cue.

I'm usually not much for the "flashy" types, but this one is very nice.

Coming along nicely...

Thanks for sharing...I always enjoy the inclusion on the steps of the building process, it is fantastic too see it from the raw and to slowly take shape, and then when the sealer and finish is applied is just amazing!
