How much and where for a Hendry Maple Replica guys? :O)

[ADR147]

I can imagine! Im in no rush so wont be chasing. It comes when it comes.

Off topic but who cares....do Pro Granite's mushroom as bad as elks? Im finding everyone i put on i have to sand the edges off every half an hour and its getting annoying. I want a tip that stays the same shape for more than 10 minutes at a time!

yes they mushroom less - as a rule the harder the tip the less it mushrooms.

@ Cueman

Just give them a ring mate. Emails will be the last thing they check if they are stacked out! Let us know what they say!

@ADR Shall i buy a pot from your ebay shop then or can i just paypal you some money?

Are mastercraft taking orders at the minute? I've tried e-mailing twice in the last couple of weeks with no reply. After a quote for a cue for my mate but to no avail? Possibly too much work on and therefore prioritising that as many orders maybe need to be done in time for Xmas, he's now deliberating going to Craftsman instead only he wanted snakewood splicing but told him Craftsman haven't got any.
Ah well may wait until after the new year and see how things are then.

they are from me - phone them.

Dunns will make to your specs???

As others have said, loads of choice depending how much u want to spend.

If on a budget and you want a new cue then Dunns as mentioned by Jaffa might fit the bill

There's a thread here from someone who bought one

http://www.thesnookerforum.com/board...-new-Dunns-cue.

I have read some people not so happy also about Dunns and I suspect that they set expectations too high re. craftsmanship but at that price you won't get premium cue quality e.g. Trevor White, Mike Wooldridge, Robin Cooke, John Parris Ultimate etc..

Then again if you look at Hendrys original cue, that certainly was not perfect quality so perhaps this replica is more fitting to the description

When i was searching the net for types of wood for the main splice on a cue i came across this Trevor White "Hendry style" cue, it looks superb

[sootyvrs]

Here's a couple of Trevor White cues in the Powerglide Conny style as the one above is not quite the same style

[sootyvrs]

John Parris also has a version of this cue which can be seen here

Not sure what butt wood the original one was but the JP & cheaper Dunns use Rosewood. The bottom of the TW one is Cocobola wood

Original is rosewood.

Dunns cues use to use ebony as this was one of the first things I ever looked at when I started,

if you look at the authentication page and the G's, you will see various ones.

The one thing I really like about dunns-cues website is the gallery content.

You might as well save a little more and get one off Trevor White. I'm not knocking other makers here, but I've played with a few cues and I've never seen cues as good as Trevors'. I've just had mine made and in my opinion is the best option (but that is just my opinion). Happy hunting!!!

I have seen many beautiful Hendry cues made by Trevor on this forum. But I dont believe you can get one made to your spec for 300-350.
Perhaps unclevit is a good choice, but Thai is flooded now so may be he cannot do anything for you at this moment.
I saw some nice Thai cues on the Craftsman site that are quite nice. have you checked that out?
