Made some acrylic ferrules

There’s a market, albeit a small one, for a variety of ferrule colors if you can come up with something.

I think you’d be better off sticking to only a few colors and see if you can come up with a durable, stain
resistant ferrule that has the best compression properties, durability and appearance. Ivory ferrules are
the best, IMO, but are becoming very expensive and harder to obtain. A substitute is needed and what
are the options? Then see if you can come up with something better or at least different but never inferior.

Presuming you were successful, don’t embark on a making a large variety of colors but rather a select few.
You could become a huge success since cue makers aren’t looking to be innovators & just use the best stuff.
Yeah, I've been down the road of trying to produce a product before, and I don't think it's really my game. I don't like turning hobbies into jobs unless it's stupid easy.

For the cue work I do, it's probably gonna stay one off work for friends and some people who ask for work done. I don't want to be standing in my garage on a 90* and humid day trying to turn out 4 dozen acrylic ferrules on my manual lathe haha.

OB classic, XL classic, or PRO 3/8x10

billyjacket, I have a new old stock OB+ Classic with the stich ring. I made a mistake on the other OB shaft. It is a plain black ring which is marked demo 10 on it. I also have a new old stock OB 133 butt.
I have a O.B. 172 and bought a new OB-F1-10S OB Fusion F1-10S 3/8x10 w/ OB Stitch Ring shaft to go along with my Fusion 6 shaft. I know O.B. went out of business and both my shafts have the stitch rings on them. Thank you for sharing about your 133 and your OB+ Classic with stich ring.

Snooker from Saudi Arabia

Well Ronnie is the goat for sure but you have to give credit to Neil how well he held his composure in the last two frames, especially the penultimate frame break which started from a difficult red in the middle and the whole clearance was amazing!

And you could tell by his emotions how much it meant for him. Ronnie was his usual cool himself, maybe even a bit more happy than usually. It seems he’s enjoying the game and life more now and is very relaxed.
with a net worth of 25 million USD life cant be all bad
but money doesnt buy happiness
(i know he has demons which he seems to have conquered)
