All mini butts are made from solid Ebony or the wood of your choosing to match your cue. They are typically 6" in length but can be made shorter or longer upon your request. Each one is finished off with my gold plated Karl Craik Customs badge.
The Karl Craik Customs Difference:
All mini butts and extensions will not only fit into the butt of your cue but they will also fit into the joint in your shaft should you have ordered a 3/4 cue. This is a major advantage of my cues over those that use the regular SD type joints in the butt. By using the 6" mini butt directly into the shaft of your cue you can then play with a shorter yet still comfortable length cue in those venues where there can be often tight playing conditions around the table.
A standard mini butt usually made from solid Ebony. They can however also be made from a wood to match you cues exotic splices.
The Classic mini is made from solid Ebony with a single front splice to match your cues lower exotic splices. It can also include matching veneers.
Also available with a resin upgrade for an extra £25.
The Envy mini is made from solid Ebony with a four splices to match your cues lower exotic splices. It can also include matching veneers.
Also available with a resin upgrade for an extra £50.
The 12" Intermediate butt is typically only used in snooker but can of course be used in all my cues regardless of pool or snooker.
Its unique design has not only the male fitting to joint with the butt of the cue but it also has a female fitting at the other end. This allows you to add further extensions such as a 6" mini butt or a Telescopic extension to the back to the 12" Intermediate butt thus extending your cues reach even further!
The telescopic extension measures 18" in length when closed and can extend up to a maximum length of 30". They feature a quick action mechanism that allows a fast and secure way of locking out the extension to the required length. Each Telescopic extension is finished off with my gold plated Karl Craik Customs badge.
Adding a further personalised finishing touch to your cue in a secondary laser engraved acrylic badge. Designed to your own specification in a variety of fonts and colours.
All custom made cues are fitted with a brass ferrule as standard included in the price of your order. Titanium ferrules are not held in stock but can be ordered in upon request.
Resin upgrades are a unique new way to define your cue. Resin splices can only be made with woods such as Olivewood and Burr woods due to the construction process. There are variety of colours available to choose from.
