cost the purchaser - ballpark figure? White buttcap, amboyna burl butt sleeve, wrapless 3-section handle, 4 amboyna points outlined with blk-wht-black, stainless half-joint 5/16x14 piloted, maple forearm, with two quality shafts... both the handle and the forearm to be made from similar maple, either nice birdseye or curly. Ivory Egyptian ankh symbol in four (non-mitered) windows. 59", 20oz. Rings can certainly vary from my pitiful effort to show rings. No other ivory other than the ankhs.

Picture above is something I put together so proportions/colors are incorrect.

Mod - please delete the empty version of this post - the forum software must have suffered a lapse as I don't know how that happened.

Have had one estimate via pm so far as a builder price. Thanks for that one.

Ok, simpler questions ... which of the three variations I've posted looks best and which would cost the least to produce?
 
I dont know about anyone else, but I would charge less for the one with the linen wrap.
The all birdseye segmented handle version looks better to me IMO

the wrapless looks good to me, but when it come to charge, the linen cue will less cost to me.

Nice design on the butttsleeve..
 
Thanks Al. I'm thinking the maple/burl/maple handle would look best.

Picked it up last evening from Andy Gilbert.
 
Yep. Andy sort of got in gear for these two cues. My friend's cue (shown in my gallery post) was actually ordered several days after mine.

Hi,

Nice cues!!

Depending on the who builds the cue the price will vary. In this market, I would say that if you were expecting a world class job performance with a high quality fit and finish that the wood handle cue should be priced somewhere around $ 1,200.00 with 2 shafts. And the cue with the wrap about $1,100.00.

If you only want 1 shaft deduct about $ 150.00 and you should be in the ballpark for cost.
