heh just got an email from viattorre. and they said this "We're gonna use Uniloc's Radial pin, Tiger maple and cocobolo. Ivory joint, ferrule and 1 solid rock maple shaft. The cost of the cue would be US$475 + shipping. Current waiting period is approximately 3-4 months."

thats like "woah!!" so my dream is becoming real. gonna find out more abt payment and stuff so i can start budgettin.

and yes only the weather could have dampen my spirits and spoil plans but its alright. i'll get to them later.
