plane jane ebony ring work

im pretty laid back i like skinny maple or holly rings mainly white or some thing light to go with the black recently i was making a plain jane (warped to hell and back:angry:) ebony cue and at all the ring locations i had maple and purple rings 3 maple and 2 purple between them looked really sharp!

im going to remake it in the future.:grin:

any pictures of the rings?

why'd the cue warp? weather change or something?
 
no i didnt had bought a pile of ebony off ebay a while back and it was wet as #$@# and i thought i had it dried out enough but ..... :mad:
but as much as i would like to balme ebay it was my own fault for not stabilizing the wood and letting it dry out for longer in my light bulb kiln.

i choped the cue up and made some ebony joint collars and but caps and a few other pieces i hardly ever let anything go to waste ill try and post up pics when i re create it
 
what kind of ring work do you think best compliments dark wood plane janes?

Saw one that had Zebrawood rings, sided by black linen, and either nickel silver, or brass. Can't remember which metal, but I remember thinking how cool the zebrawood looked in contrast to the dark wood/ebony. :cool:
