something different, a billiard
This is exciting, a new billiard. Anyhow I would appreciate any advice and critiques. The next one will be something different, thanks, Norm.

Looks pretty nice! The stain looks even and the fit and finish look pretty good.
On the shape, I think the taper on the shank is just a degree or two too much. Also, there should be just a little bit more heel than what you have. Aside from that, I think you're really close to making a perfect billiard. You've come a long ways since Chicago.

Nice shape. I totally agree with whats been said. I will add that the stem from the top view looks pretty wavy. Take a file and make the sides flat or taper very slightly toward the button. The other thing that sticks out is the shank. It looks very oval-shaped. Try to make them roundon all sides by turning the stem while sanding.
