the most beautiful cue ever made By who???

I don't know if someone listed it before me, however, the most beautiful cue I have ever seen on AZ, or anywhere for that matter, is the cue called "EDEN". I must apologize if I get this wrong. I believe it was Mr. Zinzola,....or Manzino. I know both of these gentlemen make fabulous cues, I can't remember which one made the cue.

I believe the story behind the cue was that the cuemaker was going thru a rough period of his life, and put his thoughts, time and efforts into this cue. I don't have a copy of the pic on this computer, however, I will get it downloaded from one of my other machines.

The artistry in this cue is unbelievable. It is hard to believe one could put all the intricate curled inlays into a piece of wood such as this.

I have seen other pieces done by each of the two cuemakers I mentioned, and really bow down to them with humble respect. Keep up the great work.

I saw Mike's Dragon Cue prototype at the expo after that whole argument (empty pockets and male part inlays). If TW was gonna bet, he would've lost. This is a pretty cue though.
 
My favorite....

Thomas Wayne

I lived in Anchorage for many years and first met Thomas around late 1980's (I think) when he moved to Alaska.

I have known Thomas before he started making cues. Very interesting guy and absolutely one of -if not THE smartest- guy I have ever met.

He does get into 'spats' with people because he is passionate about his work and all that is related to it.

Sometimes his people skills are a little 'challenged' - but he makes some of the most complex and interesting cues EVER!

Glad to see him back making magic wands.

BTW, I own the original lizard cue (Jurassic Cue) and it is for sale if anyone is interested, they can contact me. Pictures can be seen on BilliardCue.com.

This cue helped change the pool cue world.
