Bit of a tricky one this!! and i can understand why True cue makers like Crispian are pissed off!
There are people on here selling £65 thai cues with their own custom badges for £400 and sometimes much more!
Why should these people who have been in the cue trade for 2 or 3 years make a massive profit at your expense and make probably 3 or 4 times an hour more than someone like Trevor who has more than 20 years solid experience!
For everyone about to buy or order a new cue PLEASE do your homework first!!
I'm so pleased now i bought off Trevor White and Crispian who both send you pictures of your cue being made at different stages throughout the process.

sory andy but i have just been out to see someone and only returned just now, ive seen many of your cues and as you know they are handmade, im refering to one cue in perticular that is on the forum right now, i have also been emailed a second cue in the hour that i was out, both these cues in my opinion are questionable, do you want me to add pictures of them here bearing in mind they actualy belong to customers ?

the reason i ask andy is because as you know a cue is spliced traditionally using a hand plane, without drawing a diagram for the less expirienced here, that would mean plaining in a straight line from point A to point B where as the thai cues will have there splices put on using machinery that involves the splices being added in a convext way, so i geuss that i would need get out my plane and ruin this perticular cue to show whether it is or is not a thai cue ?
this would mean ruining the whole cue, a waiste of my time and efforts to prove realy, but if needed then that is what i will do !
the cue is in the workshop now see, but trutrhfuly it is the last thing i want to do to it
