Who is the best cue maker in the world?

Answer 1

This is a subjective question that cannot be answered - there is no "best" but there are many good cue makers. The best cue makers have attention to detail and while they may use computer aided cutting, turning, etc., the cue construction is essentially by hand. They make sure that wood goes through multiple drying stages and have other checks throughout the process that cannot be performed by any mass production of cues. There are dozens of high quality cue makers today, and none could be identified as "best", except by an individual personal opinion.
