Kamui Tips Q/A

Paul Bell
Tip Paladin just the tip.jpg


I shape my cue tips before every day of play in part so that I can replace tips more often. I do not have a glazing problem.

The problem I have had is that any tip that has a clear or plastic bottom to it, it is more likely the cue tip will pop off. That includes the Kamui clear tips, Rhino's Time Crystal, and the super-expensive Paladin Precision (two images here).

Dealings with Joe Salazar Connoisseur of Cues

One question I haven't noticed being mentioned is How much did Mr. Salazar's widow know about his business?

If he kept his business life and his personal life fairly well compartmentalized, his widow may well have not actually known that he sold cues on consignment rather than just buying and selling cues. If she didn't hear anything about consignment until after her husband's death, she could understandably be worried about being hustled by various pool players. Collectively, we pool players don't have the greatest reputation for honesty and ethics.

Very possible...then she still has the legal obligation as an estate administrator to verify the ownership of any and all property before she disposes of them. She may be entitled to be compensated for her efforts.

Texas law does not make Joe Salazars wife honor any contract Joe had with anyone.

All the shit is hers and she’s keeping it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I do not interpret this as an attempt to get Joe's Estate to enforce any of Joe's written or verbal contracts. I believe this is a "bailment" issue whereas Joe, or his estate, has the legal obligation to return any property given to him in order to perform specific work upon the owner's demand. I don't believe that anyone is asking her to fulfill the work Joe contracted to do. If the court has not ruled on the motion with prejudice perhaps they can file in another venue, one that does not have that particular condition...Again I believe that that particular Texas law (which I have not read) applies to fulfilling contractual agreements, not returning property that does not belong to the deceased or his Estate, I believe that this is a "bailment" case.

Plain Jane cue construction

Planning to have this cue made with Cocobolo and Quilted Sapele.

I initially started with the design having joints, butt cap and rings, somehow, it seems to remove something from the cue, and I ended up with this.

I once read that you should never join two pieces of wood together without any rings in between, is there any truth to this or is there a workaround to achieve the same effect without compromising structural integrity?

EDIT: pin would be Uniloc

I have a cue that looks similar...made by John Chaplin...Coos Cues.

Cocobolo with Sindora Burl handle...cored with Purple Heart.

I would hesitate to have a cue built without a joint collar or butt cap.

China Open

Except for the final, all the other matches I saw of Fedor, he didn’t play well, missed shots and was behind and somehow his opponents stop playing and gave hom the match.
He is a great player but he had a ton of luck in this tournament. Of course that you still need great skill to capitalize on your opponents mistakes
