I posted this up to customize a week or so ago and had a few people thinking it over, but never finalized anything. I needed to test some double notched diamonds for another cue, and decided they would look good in this one.

6 Long Ebony Points with veneers of White, Blue Silver and Black. The points nearly touch the joint collar. Currently has Elforyn Butt and Joint, but could be changed.

Outside Points all will have a solid Ivory double notched diamond. Inside Points will have an Ivory Bordered Double Notched Diamond (Width of Ivory is .015"). Barbell / Dot style Rings in all positions. Barbells will be silver and the dots are Ivory with a silver dot in the center. Butt inlays will be the same as the corresponding point inlay.

All pockets are cut in the cue and almost all of the parts are done being cut. Will get it's first coat of finish tomorrow. The photos below show all the pockets and one of the Ivory Bordered Diamonds in place.

I believe this is only the third 6 pointer I've built.

Cue will include two shafts with LBM Ferrules and Triangle Tips.

SOLD

I went through the other cues I don't have spoken for and there are two four pointers and that will be it for several months. I won't be ready to inlay them for at least a couple of weeks because I have some cues that need to come first.

The window cue I posted up is still available too. I will post some final photos up tomorrow or Tuesday once I get it buffed and wrapped.

This is EXACTLY what I would order if I were on your list. I am truly pissed I can't buy this cue. Already way over my cue budget for the year and it's only March...


Lucky bastard who gets it,

The cue is basically finish size, so the points will stay just about that long. One issue with the points being that long is that if I write a program to cut the entire ring, the dots won't line up perfect with the points. They might only be one or two thousandths off, but it will be noticeable with the tip of the point pointing directly at what should be the silver dot in the center.

I had to align for each point to be sure everything would look right. Much the same way I always do for the A Joint ring. If the points ended an inch farther back, it wouldn't make a difference. When they almost touch the ring, it will stick out like a sore thumb.
 
Back to the top....
