dufferin conversion
 
DUFFERIN CONVERSION
this is the first cue i've done that has stitched ringwork
i refused to use what i could not make myself , yes, hardheaded :rolleyes:
they aren't perfect but i'm pretty happy with how they turned out
the rings are brown phenolic with holly inserts flanked by maple rings
you may notice the darker edges on the maple
those are not glue lines
that was something i did intentional , didn't quite turn out exactly the way i wanted them, but , i was close
going take this puppy out tonight and test drive her

I like the ring work.I think it has a good style, plain but not to plain.

I like it too Brent. No its not perfect, but for a first try it pretty darn good. I think it looks sharp, and I like the concept you were going for.

Consistant improvement is why I think you are going to continue getting a better and better reputation. Keep up the good work man.

P.S. I remember commenting on the great finish you did on my cues. Apparently others are starting to notice as well. I hate to say it, but I told you so. :)

Brent if you keep makeing cues that look this good you will have to raise your price's.Well not till I get my cues that is......lol
I would pay what ever you ask I am not one of those guys that don't want to pay the price for great work.

thanks a train.
can't hardly beat a dufferin or an old brunswick for a conversion cue in my book

So did you get to try it out yet Brent? Is this one for sale, or is it a customer's cue? Just curious.

due to circumstances beyond my control (buyer lost his job yesterday)
this cue is up for sale again
$200

shark3149 April 11th, 2007 02:47 PM

Guys you might want to jump on this cue..The thing hits great,and the price is even better,you get so much cue for so little money.....That is not going to last long.....I can see it now as soon as people find out how good his cues play the price will go up and the list will be very long......

BHQ April 15th, 2007 11:21 AM

sold "again" :rolleyes:
pending payment
if this one falls thru, i'm throwing it down in the woods!!!! :eek:
