Custom Cue: Amatista. My own translation: BOOYAH hell yeah!
I am so pumped about this stick. She’s gorgeous. Omigoonness. Goosebumps seeing her roll.
4 Hickory Break | Jump | Regular Shooters
I will be setting up auctions on these cues as I complete them. They will also be available for purchase before auction. The butts are solid no-core hickory. They were turned over time. I didn’t core them because they are stable, balanced, and hickory. So what? You’re going to feel it in the hit and […]
Soon to auction… Hickory with black cherry burl and tiger maple rings

A subscriber will win the pool cue in this log

It occurred to me while editing my upcoming Sassafras rebuild video that with my current setup, I’m able to core full length sticks. The daring part was coring them while they’re rotten and liable to fly […]
Rotten Maple on a Journey… (plus a wicked cool slideshow)
I also cut a some very crazily-figured black cherry, some ordinary old walnut, and paper birch, which will all complement the new sticks in various ways. Some of the sticks will be one-piece, so the only complement will be like: “Holy shit! You’re beautiful!”
