    Hi guys, lets talk cue requests. I receive every single one y'all send me, but I have not responded to 99% of them. It's overwhelming. There's quite a few of them.
    Some cue makers will take deposits indefinitely and amass years-long wait lists. That sounds stressful. I keep my queue short, 4 or 5 people at a time. Once another slot opens up, I go to my unread emails (AGAIN, SORRY GUYS, WORK IN PROGRESS), find the oldest one, and reply. So if you emailed me, have patience, I haven't deleted you. I'm sorry for the wait.

      All of your cues look amazing, to say the least. Could you please share the email for cue request. With beautiful cue like yours, no matter how long the wait, it's worth it. Thank you.

      Hello. I am a pool player here in Fort Worth,TX. Love watching your videos. I am currently playing with a predator BLK. I have never bought a custom cue. I have watched alot of pool cue making videos and I keep coming back to yours. I am as you say a middle class guy. Me and my wife work hard for our money. I will have to do alot honey dews for her to allow me to spend what I think will be a cue worth alot more in 10 years when your famous. I'm sure there is a long list, but I am a patient man. Look forward to showing one of your beautiful cues here in Texas. And I promise on my 2 beautiful children. It will not endcup on ebay. Thx. Billy Ray Dilluvio. Please send email 2 join waiting list . Thx 😻

    This has to be my favorite build from this channel, along with the full splice birdseye/cocobolo. There's just something about cues that highlight the beauty of the woods used.

    If you are still a beginner. I can not wait to see what you produce as a master. I am doing research currently so I can make my first cue. I have high expectations of myself as a fairly competent wood worker. You and your craft are impressive and amazing. Thank you for this and all of your videos.

    for realigning the cues for putting in more points or inlays, you can get indexing fixture from TNT cues, Tom Migliore. You mount the receiver in your chuck, aligned and level and your forearm slides in it with it's own threaded on indexing piece, they align with a cutout slot. attach with a set screw and your forearm side has a piece that mounts in it that you leave in till you are done completely working on the forearm work. makes putting it back in your cnc spot on and easy.
