Probably pool cue manufacturers do use some sort of CNC, copy or engine
lathe, but I'd think a woodturner wouldn't buy the equipment for modest
production. I have a friend who makes custom croquet mallets, drum
sticks and batons on a old Craftsman tubular bed lathe with carbon
tools...he does very well.

BTW, I'm thinking about buying some cheap flea market golf clubs,
removing the metal shafts and turning some faux 'old wooden shafts with
leather grips' as replacements before the collecting craze is over. Bad
idea or am I too late again?
