shame this thread died already, esp. with the number of custom cue makers on here.


it must be so freakin cool to build a cue, and put your own logo on it, and play with it.

and when people ask who made the cues you can proudly say "oh i made it myself"

Funny thing is half of the time they don't believe you when you tell them you made it.

I love your work Chris!!!!!!!!!!! Very Very Nice, did you make all the blanks?

Either way they are great looking cues!!!!!

Thanks for posting!!!!!!!!

[Chris Byrne]

Thanks Craig. I made the blanks, I just made a new fixture this summer for them. My last one worked but it was not very adjustable. My new one will go from 0-27inches long. I couldent do reverse points with the old one so it had to go. I set this up on my second mill so I won't have to tear it down after every use anymore. I have been doing mostly cnc'd cues for the last few years but I learned on v point cues. I think the market is returning to traditional styled cues and I am glad to see the renewed interest in them. I really enjoy making the cues. Here is a few pics of my setup. Chris.
This one is as I was finishing with the base milling, everything is just sitting in place.

milled base for perfect alignment with no shims

finished forearm for ilustration. The fixture was finished in this pic. I also added a new powerfeed unit with the kill switch.
