Cue construction:

Most common types:
· Decorated one piece butts
· Cnc prongs or cnc decorated forearms joined at the handle
· Full spliced forearms and handles
· Sharp points cut into the forearm using the "old" geometry and joined at the handle

I imagine a good cuemaker could build a quality cue from any of the various construction types, however, there are a few reasons I build mine the way that I do. Click on any of the words below for a short description and a few pictures.
