Pool cues

[Ronald Fox]

I was wondering if any of you have turned any pool cues? Where do you find the hardware? Any thing I should be aware of if I give one a try? I wouldn't want it to explode and hurt some one ;)

Thanks,
Ron

More complex than at first it seems but here goes:
A good list of links: http://www.poolshark.com/cues.htm
One of the best on the site, though I couldnt open it: http://users.mwci.net/~rspragg/poolcue.html
There's an association but here site doesnt hold much, except a short discourager:
http://www.cuemakers.org/aca-maq.htm
Shaft and handle wood (maple grades you aint yet heard of !): http://www.cuecomponents.com/shaftwood.html
tell us how it goes...
