Today on Studiotronics, we're making a pool cue from scratch. Jack's full splice cue is 62 inches of African Blackwood, Abalone, and carbon fiber.
This is, to date, the most challenging build I've attempted. Thanks to Jack for letting me take on his vision.

⁠​⁠@@cheemomugdoo799without trying to be rude or anything…there’s a difference in stress levels. Fly rods bend back and forth, cues get slammed on end into a 6-ounce phenolic ball. Bamboo inlays would probably work, but as far as an entire butt or shaft made of bamboo, I don’t know.

Oh man!! Nailed it! 🤟🏻🎱 I’m a Captain on the Upper Mississippi River. We’re currently pushing some barges up North between Illinois and Missouri in a snow storm in the dark. 💨 ❄️ I have a steersman so I mostly just “correct” him from the couch. 😜 When I seen this new video pop up I had to watch it. Thanks for another trip through the shop to get me off this boat for 21 minutes of awesomeness. ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸❤ I wanna see the kayak video now. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I am in awe of this man. What dedication and talent he has! When he was on the computer figuring the V cuts for laying in the Abalone, that blew my mind. I’m a huge fan of black anything and this is by far the most beautiful cue I’ve ever laid eyes on, wow! The Abalone against the glossy black African wood sent chills up my spine. I would name this The Black Mamba and have him inscribe that somewhere on my cue and I’d cherish it forever. I could never afford such a beautiful piece of art, but I’m just curious, how much would a cue like this run? $5000? $10,000? And me being 5’10” I prefer a cue longer than the standard 58”, so 62” is absolutely perfect. Thank you for this wonderful, entertaining video! You do incredible work! ❤❤❤

I prefer a 60" or 62" cue over the standard 58". The problem is if you want to take it on a plane a 60" cue will barely fit corner to corner in a 28" suitcase, which is the maximum size allowed on many flights. I use a 60" cue. It seems like a standard size cue with an extension is more convenient but I haven't tried playing with an extension either in the center or a butt extension. Shane Van Boening used a butt extension all the time for a long time so it must be okay.

Are absolute cues made by production, or are all the perfect ones always hand made? I've played thousands of games of pool, but I'm tied to oxygen 24/7 w/COPD, but I would be beside myself if I owned it! It would be handed down to my family! Just awestruck watching you work, and the patience you have, is a rare thing now a days! Looking forward to see more! "With ❤ and 🙏's. (Just for s and gs,"how much would you sell this cue for)?
