I think they look great , nice work.

But since you brought it up , I'd love to see you cut in the sharp points on all the inlays so they 'look' like they were done manually and not 'look' like they were CNC'd. That's really the only difference regardless of technique used.

Just an opinion. Look very nice otherwise.

My thoughts exactly....

that seems to be the only "problem". when i had my patterns cut, i asked my cnc guy to give me the radius so i would not have any glue lines at the tips of my points(inlays). i wanted my parts to fit perfectly , and they do. i do understand though, that sharp inlay work is the norm right now. thanks for the input guys!!

I do patterns for quite a few builders and could probably help you with some of that. The smaller inlays really have no big secret other than various techniques for cutting them in. On some of the others , there are ways to cnc sharp points.

These are the techniques that take certain builders to the 'next' level and really seperated them from the pack.

But . . . There are a ton of cues out there with 'unsharpened' points and inlays so it's not the end all be all. You can still do quite fine with out them. Just depends on where you want to go.

i haven't figured out a price yet. i've kinda decided to let you guys tell me what they are worth. i know i'm going to open a can of worms by doing this, but the worst that can happen is i don't sell them....we'll see.

That's tough to do. there're so many talented cue makers these days. you couple that with the way everyone seems to be doing cash wise these days really makes it tough to let anyone but the maker set the price.

keep up the good work bro. it's pretty sick that i live like 30 minutes from hardtimes and every time i tell myself i've going to drag myself there to check out some of your cues in person i end up making an excuse not to go. just can't make myself drive that far if i don't "have" to be somewhere
 
No disrespect at all....the cues are just not to my taste...But, they are pretty..I will give you that.. Should be no problem selling them. I am sure they are very well put together and have a very nice hit...but for my picky azzed taste...just not for me

Now on the other hand, my wife loves them cues..
 
Very nice simple designs. Just what i like. Now i need your address and do you have an alarm system? :D
 
Very nice work there.....I for one have no patience to even attempt something like that. I have a nice brand new George Washington for cue #1 sir;)...J/k I imagine it will be a lot of George's for these beautiful cues...Congrats!!
