    Is it just a plain cocobolo butt? If it is, I've seen the piece Robin's going to use, and it's niiiiice! I reckon if you're looking for something a little out of the ordinary then a plain cocobolo butt is the perfect solution. Good choice!

        to make it clear: THIS is would be a 16pcs cue, because there are 4 times 4 splices added (with veneers, in the picture)

        I was speaking to Robin recently, which is why I know ...
        was just wondering keith, was you on the phone to robin last wednesday? because i was trying to get through to him and he eventually said "sorry i was on the phone to a customer in france and couldnt get off the line as there was much to speak about"

        straight away i thought it was you but would like to know if you are "that" customer from france.

          Hi. If I were you, I will go for Rosewood butt. Ebony is seen everywhere
          It's in the Shaft

            was just a guess, didn't pretend I'd know...

            12 cues? ok, there are 22 balls, so why not...

              well to be honest I would love to have 12 cues... With 12 different designs...

              But on the other hand if I could find one cue with which I can make a century break... I would give away all the other cues

                    Yip, that was me, alright. Guilty as charged! I was on the 'phone for a pal of mine who doesn't speak much English, so I had lots of questions ... poor Robin!

                        To be honest, if that's what you were looking for, then just a plain cocobolo butt would've done, but I'd NEVER critiscise a fellow cocobolo addict! Lol

                                ah i see lol. yes ive just ordered a cue from robin and sent off my cheque. with some luck, royal mail will get it off to him.

                                the cue will be for my mate that had his stolen. ebony main butt, 4 secondary splices of cocobolo, 4 bottom ebony with green veneers in maple. looks like all cue makers are getting really bussy
