it's out bloody standing! i assume its burnt to look like that?

The lower part of the splices immediately after the joint before the actual splice points start to emerge. Heard several cuemakers refer to it as "the crossover".

Are you saying the butt looks very thick around the region just below the joint?

[mng86]

What do you mean by "cross over?" Do you mean the alignment at the joint?

I noticed the misalignment as well. I guess it's some QC issue as Dave is dealing with family illness. Is it something that my local cue maker can rectify? (Airin, "knock knock")

Just looks like theres too much ebony above the joint for the length of the splices, personally i prefer it to be about an inch in size myself. The cue matty is waiting on arriving has the kind of look i prefer:

Trouble is the prices for Ions replicas are awful compared to Glovers.

don't really know why that is - some of tony's are superb.

Errr Andrew, they both go by the name Tony... so when you say some of Tony's are superb, which one are you referring to?

superb, well I have seen ash, maple, pear, even an old broom and now bamboo - question though...
is it stiff or whippy ?

[willtyson]

A man near me owns one of these- he claims it's one of only 4 or something like that! Looks nice, bet it's hard to keep that in good condition :snooker:

Thank you very much for taking the time to explain this to me. I never heard this term "cross over " before but I think I now know what you were saying. Learn something new today, thank you.
I personally do not like to see a big blank of black in the middle, too--but it is just personal taste I guess. Some people like that kind of look.

Very nice cues, what maker are they? Or did you make them yourself? :snooker:

The owner purchased the snake wood and LP makes it
One of the best piece of snakewood I have ever seen.

[willtyson]

It is the best piece I've ever seen to be honest, almost perfect! If that's possible in terms of cue making lol :snooker:
