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 😻

What's a good email address for ordering a cue?
My god, this is beautiful. Favorite cue I've seen on this channel so far, I think.
Another stunning work of art. I am really impressed by your dedication, attention to detail and skill. You have a great eye for colors and woods that go together! I wish I could afford one of your fine Rolls Royce cues! Maybe one day. 🙏🙏🙏 Keep up the fantastic work! ❤
You just might be on your way to creating the most beautiful cue sticks...in the world! Your color eye is top notch, along with your attention to detail (micro level).
Wow. Just wow. I had never really thought about how cues were made. This really woke me up. The skills, talent, vision, tools, etc... You are a great craftsman sir. Thanks for the education.
I think you can most definitely stop considering your self a beginner. You are a beast brother. Amazing craftsmanship and artistry in everything I have seen that u have created.
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.
My next cue is gonna come from you! I love the craftsmanship and that you are very picky and want everything to be perfect, just like I want it. The wait will be worth it! 👍
It's such an honor to get to see you practice your craft like this. Thank you. Amazing build!
Beautiful cue as always. They're each so different, too. Hard to say which is my favorite. They're all works of art.
Absolutely gorgeous cue. Looks amazing, especially with the cf shaft.
hey my friend , you are not a beginner !!! your work is absolutly awesome and perfect , you are a professional cue making magician.
I don’t think I there is a better person in the universe to make a cue. I think you win by a long shot. Lucky folks who can afford to get one also get to watch it be made! So cool
Insanely beautiful... your craftsmanship and your passion, too!
Fantastic woodwork. The artistry is awe inspiring.
Amazing work, absolutely mesmerizing to watch!
That is a sick cue!!!! My favorite wood combination for sure!
I learned some things watching this video. I knew that some work went into making a cue but this really gets in depth of the amount of work it takes to make a beautiful cue.
Truly a work of art. Anyone with a passion for the sport should be honored to play with a weapon of precision such as that. I know i would. I'll be saving up and looking forward to owning one of your masterpieces some day. Keep honing your craft and putting out content for the world to enjoy.
Out of all the cues I've seen of yours, this one is by far my favorite! Keep up the awesome work my friend!
Have you ever done a video on your presentation/packaging and shipping related to the cues? Because if the cue is this gorgeous I can not even imagine the box it would come in. It's been a real pleasure watching these videos.
Great video. Always love seeing a cue built
This is really work of art! Great attention to details and just cool to watch your video :)
That is a beautiful cue! Great work!
Absolutely a gorgeous cue.
Absolutely stunning 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Really beautiful. I really enjoy your videos. Thanks so much for the help.
Fantastic work man. Stunning cue right there!
That is one of the nicest cue's I've ever seen , he work is off the chain!
Man I think you are doing some amazing cues. They have all been beautiful but this one is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing your work. Maybe one day I could afford a custom cue from a fellow Texan.
Amazing piece of art, beautiful cue!
Continue making amazing cues! Work of art♥️
This is really great work and choice of wood in the cue.
I love your work and attention to detail. Truly inspirational! This makes me want to try to take this up as a hobby...

Wow. That cue is beautiful. Amazing job. Won't lie, I'm like the rest of the other people that play and would love to order one from you. Seeing you do this amazing job is absolutely incredible. Well done sir. Can't wait to see more.
Beautiful work! Very nice and very professional.
Beautiful work!!
Beginner, my butt! Lol 😆 I was thinking of asking a friend if he was done with his cue making tools - no cnc stuff ( update 10 months later, he's keeping his cue lathe) Fishing on You tube, I found your channel . Glad I did! Nice work!! Fyi I have not seen any of your sticks on eBay!
good looking cue. only watched 3 videos so far but this is my favorite so far. beautiful
Absolutely incredible. Keep it up man
Thanks so much for these posts. I do lots of wood working, and I've always wanted to make a cue...So, your videos are really enlightening. Can't wait to show you one of the ones I make, and give you a big thanks.

I've watched all your videos sir and there's not a single cue that you have made that I wouldn't be proud to own very nice work sir I love watching your channel
Gorgeous cue!
I would not classify you as a beginner. Your work is exceptional. Cue looks great.
AMAZING. you do beautiful work
Beautiful cues. I was just thinking about what I would want, when I get to order. This is very close, slightly different woods, and wrap, but this is really striking a chord with me.
Lovely work
Hello!!! Fun to watch you do your thing!!!
Fantastic. Smart idea using the Purple Heart. Would love to see the machines you use.

I love the cues you make and the detail you put into them. Do you ever see having a "Blemished" line of cues for sell? I wouldn't mind some imperfections in the finish...just more handmade character!
That is a good looking cue 👌
really work of art
Gorgeous cue
Great art, great skills, great finishing. I'd love to own one just like this one. But then again, I can't afford it and even if I could, the wait list would be an issue. 😢. Hopefully, I'll be able to buy one from you one day
I am a cuemaker myself, and I want one of yours :) well done sir.
So nice !!!! ❣️❣️❣️
So beautiful ❤
You make awesome cues bro, love it ❤
Beautiful cue that would be perfect fit for a black carbon fiber shaft!
Very nice cue.
I know its trial and error, but for a guy you say "a beginner" your cues are awesome and the videos are great. Great work! Might send a cue request one day! Keep up the amazing work!

I recently discover your channel. I see a great artist sensibility. Surely there is a long waiting list but let me know if you could do one more project.
0:53 I love the sound of the pieces of wood hitting each other.
These look great. It’s too bad you’re not taking orders now, but I’ll keep an eye out in the future.
