Stolen/given idea

Steve posted a tutorial on how to do a pool cue joint and I didn't have the gear he does to do it. I have learned to never let the fact that you don't have the proper gear stop you from doing something unless it is parachuting with only a golf umbrella, or SCUBA diving with a soda bottle for an air tank. I built a jig and the second one worked a lot better than the first one and still need to make a few changes to the present design. Without further ado, slightly spalted holly with amboinya inserts on a JR. Gent. All comments appreciated and wanted. Thank you.

Not all that good with computers, hopefully this link works. My jig is very different.

You realize that by using white PR with red inserts it'll look like a circus cannon that shoots human projectiles, right? Because that would be AWESOME.
