Fantastic stuff once again, Alton.
OH MY GOD ALTON THESE ARE PERFECT!!!!! Man, you and I know I waited a good while for this cap set and it was definately worth it. I kept imagining how they would look. I knew what the butt cap would look like but I could not wait to see the shaft caps also.
These caps are so far beyond what I thought they would be. Too bad I won't be able to see them until March!!! Thank you Alton. I guarantee you and Bob will be getting more work from me in the future.
It killed me over the last few weeks seeing you post everyone's completed cap set in the gallery and now mine are here!!!!!!!!
John<-----Christmas came late but it was worth it!!!

WOW wow wow.
That is a fuxing amazing cue & more amazing caps. Museum material. Seriously, WOW.
That's what I love about them. The antique look. It compliments my old school Gus very well.
Initially the shaft caps were only supposed to have 1 and 2 and say Gus Szamboti but Alton suggested we do the shading to match the butt cap. Bob took it upon himself to do the the shapes on the sides of the shaft caps and man these came out great.
I feel truly blessed and could not be happier with this cap set.
Very Nicely Done
Thats some beautiful work"
I love it, and the collage with cue looks great !

Barry, I am truly honored to see that you approve of this cap set. Having this cap set for my Gus makes the cue that much more special for me. And, to see that you like them well, makes it so much better.
Thank you for the comment. I will treasure this cue and cap set for as long as possible. These next couple of months are going to kill me knowing I have these waiting for my return back to the Motherland.
Thanks again Barry, John
That is one sweet set of caps, and that cue isn't to bad either. :thumbup:
Ok now that's crazy .. I love them ..
