    Yes, I think that a heavier cue will help cueing flaws.

          • Yeah from wity, pearwood with buckeye burl for the butt. Need to put a firmer tip on it but plays decent.

              How much do his cues sell for? Seen some pics knocking around but thought it was a collection he had that wasn't for sale.

              • £250-£400 I believe. That being £350. Lovely cue for the money.

                    • My new cue courtesy of Mr ADR. First time I used it I found the lacquer just a bit tacky so I've taken it back to natural using 120 to remove lacquer then 600, then 1500 and finished off with 0000 wire wool.

                      I had planned to oil it but think i will leave it as is I like the look and feel of it, it just glides in my cue arm now no problem unfurling my fingers either.

                        is white spirit any good to remove the lacquer ?

                        • I tried white spirit, varnish remover and acetone Kayen, none of them touched the lacquer, so had to resort to elbow grease, I took it gently, very gently as I didn't want to screw up.

                            I'd suggest you do oil it. it's possible with the right oil to maintain the smooth glide

                              Oil it for sure, as it helps stop thing's like it bending as the wood is sealed.
                              Just a coat or to with linseed would be fine.

                              • Well bugger, my red baron tip decided to explode after a screw shot miscue. First time i've ever done this to a tip, generally a screw miscue just leaves a little scuff that can be filed off. Cue came with this from new, was only a matter of days old and maybe 4 hours of play.
