  • UT's 10+ arrows ash shaft


    UT has got this shaft with him now. The Ash wood is matured and ready for any custom production. 10+ arrows. Not that 'exactly evenly spaced' between each arrow, but looking good and will make a good cue. PM, or email me at suvitc@gmail dot com if interest.
    - Square badge will be used on this shaft.
    - This piece of a Thai Cassod Wood (pattern line similar to zebrawood) will look very nice as a 4-splice butt.

      Huy : No problem. UT learns about your project already. Will wait. Please repeat your specs/requirements, hpefully with your sample cue picture to me at : suvitc at gmail dot com

      And if you want this shaft also, please let me know. The arrows are not that 'exactly evenly spaced' but the wood is good

        uncle, just out of curiousity, i dont seem to notice that UT is big on selling maple shafts, or ever to begin with.
        is it simply a thai culture in snooker that almost all thais like ash more than maple? i did notice that omin's and master's lines dont have maple cues.

        or is it simply a cost problem?

          Thai players prefer Ash shafts due to their beautiful pattern lines/arrows. Maple is too plain for them. Playing quality is different per shaft - ash or maple. Many players here claimed that the maple shaft is more 'harsh', 'less action' than ash. But I don't quite agree on this - personal talks with plenty of maple users. UT and Omin both have good stock of Maple shafts too, and their orders on the maple shafts are something like 1 to 5 of ash (60% of ash chosers here based their decision on 'lines/arrows beauties', besides the playing quality, while the other 40% just don't care about the lines/arrows as long as the shafts are of good playing quality - solid, firm, suitable action, etc. I am changing to a maple shaft in my next cue too. Why? Due to their long time stocking of this wood, I will have a very well aged maple shaft for my cue (sometimes my 'plenty arrows' ash cues are giving me kind of a 'blurr' effect when cuing - though looking beautifully - I am 54 last September ). Maple is about US$18-20 more expensive than Ash - Less import = Higher cost.

          These are all my experience BTW, to answer other members question to me.... UT is not UV _

            this time, your SHAFT, however stiff, may be too plain to look at and may warp in an S shape, my friend. BEWARE!!!

                My SHAFT is warping now. Tip first. I don't know the look of well matured shaft Maker uses the humidity scaler, and I also judge from the dust on the blanks

                  So, you are looking for the ash wood that was, slowly, growing up on the mountains with less water and humidity. Can be done

                      Thighter grains would come from trees that grow slower. That means less moisture and poor soil. What would be a better bet would be to get a piece of ash from a really old tree. Those would be better I wuld think

                          Uncle, I hope you have some progress with my project cues there. Due date is now 1 month left. Nice shaft and wood BTW.
                          My cueing sucks
