Video as a tool.

Tough nuts to crack.
Force yourself to stay down on the CB as you pop it. This was one of the miracles of CBL for me. I even backwards engineered the theory from it. (I don't actually remember but it's gotta be 50/50 right? :ROFLMAO:)
The theory is the shot is usually so iffy there's built in doubt as you shoot it. Lo and behold, I might be close to 100% on 'em. Proving to me I know the shot, I just don't like the looks of it. lol

Has anyone seen cue work like this before?

  • Has anyone seen another cue with this style or level of hand inlay work?

    Exactly like this style? No. But other cues with a similar amount of work in them, yes many.

  • Does this resemble the work of anyone else, or is it fairly unique?

    To be honest, the type of work done in this cue reminds me a lot of antique furniture.

  • If something like this were to be offered for sale, how would you go about valuing it?

    Being brutally honest, the quality level of the inlay work is more then acceptable for furniture, but not even close to the level needed to get any kind of decent money for a cue. I can't see many people paying more then a couple hundred bucks for it. if that.

  • Is there a market for cues like this, or is it simply too different from what's traditionally collected?

    I don't think there is a real market for them due to the quality of the work.

NEW Bulletproof Synthetic Playing Tips.

The tip on the left has a proper nickel radius, the one on the right doesn't, looks just like the one I did by "eye" after using the proper tool and returning the tip to a nickel radius the difference in play was dramatic, I now use a Willard's nickel radius tool about every 6 weeks to verify proper radius, if your shaft radius is 10mm or less the dime is the one to go with but the tip is too round in the picture, I didn't believe it till I tried it myself, I was able to hit the cueball lower with the proper radius, see Dr. Dave's video on this.
That’s all bar room chalk grinding to create the state it is in. You can see the same on the triangles. Once people burrow into the chalk the tip soon gets that curvey radius.

Video as a tool.

I can now say without reservation that video of one's play is an important diagnostic tool and for any player who hasn't done this yet, I highly recommend it.
Being a stubborn jackass,
always thot I was a Cueball last player. Video of me says otherwise. Right B4 I pull the trigger, my eyes veer up to the object ball. All these years....
Just goes to show you. Only tool here is M'wah..😂
Try frozen to the rail with minimal angle with lots of english. The stuff you wanna bunt but gotta move the ball around.
