Custom Cue #35

This is a custom cue for Australian Blackball champion, Mick Norton to use in competition.

A piece of dyed/stabilised Black Butt was the basis for this cue. This is very heavily figured, so no points will be added.

Customer wanted no wrap, so this has Red Zebrawood for the handle section.

Butt sleeve is Ebony with Elforyn and reconstituted stone inlays.

Cue will also be used for Heyball, so hence the smaller tip diameter.
