I used to keep in touch with a guy off another snooker forum and a lot of players around the north east swear by this guy as a very good cue maker. His cues are relatively cheap too, never seen one in the flesh though. This chap I knew often ordered cues for others and said that they were all very well made and good players. Hope this helps, certainly worth a punt at that price.

Do you have any contact details or website?
cheers

[cueman]

No sorry, the guy I used to keep in contact with I lost his contacts as my old PC blew up! Didn't have anything backed up. From what I remember he never had a website, only contact was through people who knew him, he didn't make cues as a living as far as I know, just did it as a hobby.

they dont look too bad for that price, dont see the point in the 2 butts thought for different games, different shafts i could understand as you want a smaller tip for pool :/ confusing that is

If you look at the spec, one cue is an inch shorter and 1oz lighter. I guess he uses this for pool.

PS. Its looks very well made.

yes i agree, going to keep my eye on it see how much it goes up, 5 hrs odd left and no bids

I used to have one, and strangely enough it was off the same seller on ebay. I did ask him to give me contact details to get a custom cue made, but was told he didn't have the number anymore. I have since found out by talking to Stu over at Greenbaize, that he does all modification work for Stu to cues that he can't do himself, like adding joints and weight alterations etc
He is based in Gateshead area (near Newcastle) and the cue i had was very nice indeed, paid about £120 for it, and sold it for £140.

very nice! and for £120! think ill be getting that cue on ebay, well worth the cash
