I agree with Hotpot, the grain and colour of the shaft on 69 just looks like a proper cue.
That does actually lead me to another question for all cue makers really, what is the quality of ash like today, is it hard to get good quality ash that is good enough for making cues with? A lot of cues I see just lately, the grain looks quite ugly IMO, looks like some cheapo cues you get out of a catalogue. Also most the cues I've had or tried seem very whippy these days, getting a good stiff cue with a nice spring to it seems as rare as hens teeth!

Really good! You have a very traditional taste when it comes to splicing
and it's what I like too!
Your badge looks great too!
Keep it up mate!

Good ash is very hard to find and there's a fair amount of spoilage from each batch I get.
It's a shame as its purely visual and some of the ash I reject for ugly grain patterns actually feels like it would make a great playing cue.
