Just thought I'd say Hello !!
Howdy all,
I couldn't find a place for "Newbies" to log on and say G'Day, so this seemed like as good a place as any.
Seemed like a good place to also post a pict or two of my little endeavours in the back shed.
Among other things, I think I make a pretty mean pool cue.
Let me know what you think.......

Yep: you make a mean pool cue. Not bad for a "Newbie".
You just can't post stuff like that and not give hints as to how.
I'd also be interested in your finishing process. Looks superb.Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

Yes Mr Cue Builder, having whetted the collective appetite for knowledge on the seemingly many & intricate processes involved in these works, you are now morally and contractually obliged to indulge us by following up your fascinating inaugural posting with a series of informing and entertaining tutorials on the manufacturing process. A to Z.
Sorry, but that seems to be the way it works around here. Great work, by the way.Don't Just Do It.... Do It HardenFast!!

Amazing work. Congratulations. Like others, I would appreciate more info. Do you do this for fun, or for a living?
Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.... new members just drops in, teases us all with his pics and drops back out, ignoring calls for telling us how they do it. What a tease.
