Thanks for the kind remarks.......and always great to hear from you Nick.
And Ken.....I'd never have asked for those veneers. I couldn't have imagined
that purp & green would combo.....same thing goes for the butt sleeve with ivory
and abalone inlays that have a different sheen and lustre than the ivory.
Cuesblues.....I know I'm setting myself up for a fall by posting these cues.
I hope I'm not jinxing myself because I am having a cue built right now that
I designed and my initial reaction to seeing the first veneer photos was
"Uh oh, I think I screwed this up big time."
However, after allowing for what's still is left to be done and studying the
veneer photos more closely, my spirits are again raised. I was originally
hoping for the golden fleece of pool cues but down deep, I'll actually be
pleased if it just turns out as nice the cues in the photos I've posted. The
veneer photos are in the Gallery under "Cue in Progress Photos." Prior to
taking a peek, let me admit the design will be a bit colorful to say the least.
