What is good practice for bank shots in pool?

McDermott has a video on their website of the cuebuilding process. Somewhere in it is the inlay part. But yeah, CNC router to cut out the shapes, and then glue them in by hand.

Who is the best pool player in the nashville tenn area?

Points are generally spliced. Inlays are usually routered with a CNC machine or a Pantograph, but can be done by hand.
For everything related to cue building I would highly recommend getting a book and/or videos. One of the best and most recommended sources of info and cue building tools would be Chris Hightower. Check the link below.
