    I have a steersman so I mostly just “correct” him from the couch. 😜
    When I seen this new video pop up I had to watch it.
    Thanks for another trip through the shop to get me off this boat for 21 minutes of awesomeness. ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸❤

      ⁠​⁠@@cheemomugdoo799without trying to be rude or anything…there’s a difference in stress levels. Fly rods bend back and forth, cues get slammed on end into a 6-ounce phenolic ball. Bamboo inlays would probably work, but as far as an entire butt or shaft made of bamboo, I don’t know.

    I am in awe of this man. What dedication and talent he has! When he was on the computer figuring the V cuts for laying in the Abalone, that blew my mind. I’m a huge fan of black anything and this is by far the most beautiful cue I’ve ever laid eyes on, wow! The Abalone against the glossy black African wood sent chills up my spine. I would name this The Black Mamba and have him inscribe that somewhere on my cue and I’d cherish it forever. I could never afford such a beautiful piece of art, but I’m just curious, how much would a cue like this run? $5000? $10,000? And me being 5’10” I prefer a cue longer than the standard 58”, so 62” is absolutely perfect. Thank you for this wonderful, entertaining video! You do incredible work! ❤❤❤

    That is just a stunning piece of artwork. Incredible. I’ve had a few pretty nice cues through the years but I’d be afraid to play with this one. It’s just too nice. If I could afford it, I’d hang in on the wall in a glass shadow box on black velvet. Only my closest friends and family could ever touch it. Well, not touch it, but look at it through the glass. Come to think of it, nobody gets to even get close to it.
    Such a beautiful piece of functional art. Had no idea the technology and machining involved in creating this. I couldn’t make this, I don’t have the machines and can’t solve a Rubics Cube to save my life. Amazing work!

    What would you compare the hit of the cue to? The three best cues I've shot with are a '96 Southwest, a late 90s Scruggs, and a Helmstteter wood joint carom cue. The best hit was the Helmstteter; the feel was the Southwest; the best control was the Scruggs. This is the best way I can explain it.

    I prefer a 60" or 62" cue over the standard 58". The problem is if you want to take it on a plane a 60" cue will barely fit corner to corner in a 28" suitcase, which is the maximum size allowed on many flights. I use a 60" cue. It seems like a standard size cue with an extension is more convenient but I haven't tried playing with an extension either in the center or a butt extension. Shane Van Boening used a butt extension all the time for a long time so it must be okay.
