I may not get to go out and play much in the near future, but I feel fortunate that I have a nice diamond table to practice on. I’m not sure how motivated I’ll be to keep my game sharp though since I don’t expect many visitors. Hopefully my sons will want to spend some time occasionally playing a game in real life. Maybe I’ll get a friend to drop in, if we think it’s safe (...sigh).
I do have plenty to keep me busy, though. I still need to finish staining the play deck I built last year.
Also I have several cue builds in the works, many of which can get finished sometime this year, depending on a few variables, that is. If all goes well, this batch will fund my CNC machine and then the real fun begins. I hope that someday the ideas in my head can become a reality, because I’d like to think it can be something special. I do like the Merry Widows (Should i call them Mari-Widows?) with different exotic woods, but somewhere down deep there is an dark horse artist that wants to take this not just to the next level but maybe even beyond. I’m lucky that I have the time and ability to learn new things and resources to accomplish whatever I set up for. I feel it’s my duty not to waste the opportunities that I’m given.
“Get on me Bert, I can’t lose.”
Several (#1-5,8) of the builds below will have (dark leather) wraps installed.
About half (#1-7) of them have ring work where the dash ring is Cocobolo and “ivory” and the other half have ring work where the dash ring is made of Ebony and “Ivory”)
Pic below was taken between turns (before sanding, etc)
