Dizzy Christmas First Turn Makes Snow
Just beautiful. This is Dizzy Christmas getting its first turn.
DIZZY glued; Carrot Cake listed
The video shows the eight minutes of glue up that follow two hours of boring and coring. Plus me doing my best to avoid making Delta Zeta (sorority) jokes. You’ll also notice I’m using the Character Cues theme song (Head in the Clouds) in the last part of the video, just because. In all, an […]
Maple Shaft Tapped, the whole shebang
I’m getting practice making videos so I don’t have a cringe-inducing mega fail for my longer video, the one I’m doing for the stick called Pale Horse. I want to get used to working with the camera, explaining what I’m doing, etc. So this is a maple shaft with a special-order black phenolic ferrule (the […]
Sarah Phim Unglued, then Glued with Attitude
Here’s a glue up of a pretty stick I’m calling Sarah Phim. This is my first longer-length video. It’s raw and uncut. No, I didn’t murder a cat. Sarah Phim is Stick 24.

Bruiser Glued
Stick #22, Bruiser, went together nice and easy, and I’m excited to see that blue come alive under a gloss finish. I love the natural streaks of orange/yellow that cut through the blue dye in the beech. There are a few pocketed areas on the fat part of the butt that’ll need epoxy, and I’ll […]
Today’s not so quick update…
Busy day. Stick #6 Stick Porn, has arrived at its new home. (correction: it’s delayed a day.) I was hesitant to use tung oil on a stick because I figured there’d be a thin market for it, but I wanted to try the experiment anyway, and figured I’d just shoot with it myself. Stick Porn […]
Lots going on…
Tiger Green has half the required CA glue is applied inside my new booth, built to contain fumes. Stick 21, BOB, is pinned and butt bored for the weight bolt. Now ready for epoxy.
Major Announcement
All sticks now have an option to purchase with a maple, purple heart, or carbon fiber shaft. They are priced at $699, $749, and $999 — and the lower priced options still come with a Pool Dawg hard case and a tip shaper/chalker. These prices will change once the shop gets traction. It takes a […]
