@@PostUp_Time Producing something doesn't mean lack of hand work. Things were produced before the industrial revolution totally by handwork (and footwork to, I guess, in some cases). :-) I think you are thinking more automated production, but yeah, today that line is pretty blurred, and most times people probably take the meaning the way you used it.

Hi Niels, Today my sparkle arrived. Thank you for the quick processing over your Shop. :) What can I say, I'm totally impressed. The quality is very high, the grain of the wood is extremely well-defined, the cue is extremely well balanced, and the design is simple, but that is what i wanted and the overall picture is impressive. Plus your signature, I'm flashed. The Hit is amazing, the Feeling is much better, than any other cue i have played. My smile won't go away :) Thank you very much and a small donation for the KZread channel is also on its way today ;) Thanks and Greetings Udo

One thing I didn't see was how long from the time they get the wood until the time it can be turned and sent out of Longoni's very nice factory. That definitely looks like a very nice cue,Not like most production cues. More like a custom cue for what seems to be a pretty decent price point for the work they put in. Thanks Neils for the walk-through! Good stuff

Got an answer back from Longoni right away. Most wood nowadays is delivered dried and cut and then can be used very fast. If it's maple for example and uncut then Longoni let's it dry 24-36 months before they work with it. Hope that answers your questions
