  • Making a flat butt into a round butt

    Does anyone know if any cue makers will alter a cue to turn a flat butt into a round butt?

    I used Green Baize to do one of my cues. I believe Stu sends them off to someone to do this.

    I think any cue-maker can do this for you

                Each cuemaker will be different.

                I would estimate a tenner.

                    A tenner !!! It will be a little more than that .

                    Depends where you are in the country ......Robert Osborne changed my flat to a round .

                      As I said, it depends which cue maker which is in essence the same as where in the country you take it.

                      To change a current flat / make a round butt into a chamfer this would be around a tenner in my experience. I have had cues done like this at Robin Cook.

                      If you want / have to have a new front splice added then this will differ. Robin Cook charges £27, craftmans charge around £15.

                      Equally others will charge different amounts.

                        I believe that the original poster wants it from a flat to a round butt

                          which is near as dam it putting on 1 front splice so depending how the butt already looks depends what he has done,ie if cue already as 4 lowere splices
