Really seemed close to last years vendors, to tell the truth it seemed exactly like last year for everything
I can tell you're far to sensitive to hear what's really said in sports.i like players being miced up. it should be required in most all sports. as sports figures are really high paid entertainers. they make money only because of there being an audience. take away the audience and all sports go away.
and the audience is entitled to have the full experience and they can learn to speak civilly.
Heres another I made10-20 years ago....................I like this one:

A Tip Shaping Guide & Blade Rest - Cue Man Billiard Products
This is a shaping guide for those who prefer to use the utility blade to hand shape the tip. It has 3 radius guides on the rest. Nickel, Penny and Dime size radiuses. This takes the guess work out of it and mounts on one side of your tool post.www.cuesmith.com
I also have the automatic one mentioned above but like using a razor blade.
I made something like this years ago. You still have to reduce the diameter of the tip firstI have a Cue Companion and didn't like the tip shaper that was included with the unit. Recently, I decided to try grinding a dime shape into a HSS cutter. Boy did this work great!!!! Now all I do is insert the cutter into the Cue Companion tool post and cut a perfectly shaped dime radius every time. No muss, no fuss! Pic shows the resulting shape on a ½" dowel that I tested it on. All the tips that I have done with this cutter have come out very clean with no damage to the layered leather tip. I also made one for a quarter shape on the other end of the same cutter so when I want to change to a quarter shape all I have to do is flip it over end-to-end and I am ready to go. I will probably make a penny and nickel shape as well. Hope this helps.
There were a bunch of us thereDamn, didn't realize you were there. I was the tall skinny guy asking a bunch of questions. haha. I need to hit you up for info on the refinish you did on the GC from the other thread a month ago.

No, success is not relative, name 1 person who can travel to tournaments, pay entry and expenses and live on 18,000.Success is relative to the individual, as it is simply a matter of accomplishing one's goals. Success as a pool player does not typically equate to a successful career.
