Again so good video! Learning a lot from Cha.
Login to view embedded media I don´t have access anymore to carom table but I play online on Shooter´s Pool. many won´t play longer matches there but last 20 matches(10-30p) almost exactly 1.0 avg! Best have been 4 avg to 20p It seem to take 2-3 weeks to get same results on real tables what i get on simulator. I actually want to celebrate my 50th birthday by year playing 3-cushion tournament... I am not sure if i can but there is ranking event near my little sisters place. I would like to get there day or 2 before so I could shoot some on real tables.

Also this new lesson from Dani is nice one! Login to view embedded media

Antique Brunswick One Piece Cues Questions

F
Here's the other part to my estate sale find. There were two more cues I left there because they were shorter and didn't have the old Brunswick labels. I paid $30 for the whole group and left those two because I thought they were garbage.

Then I found this on eBay (image below). Yup, those were that. looks like I made another bonehead move.

Funny, because I was thinking the other seven were antique Brunswick so those might be Brunswick too. I was a fleeting thought though. I should have at least taken them as potential shaft wood.

One Pocket Resources

i think the agreed upon opinion is that book wise, winning one pocket and tom wirth's book are the best books. i haven't read them, but i've read upscale one pocket and it's quite rudimentary. i wouldn't bother with it.

i think it's beneficial to watch videos/streams of older players of a slightly lower than top tier level, ike runnels, john henderson, etc. they have the moves, and they need to use the moves a lot more than a pure shooter. or than a wizard like chohan

Antique Brunswick One Piece Cues Questions

If they have a screw hole in the butt end they probably had bumpers on them.
When these were made the bumpers were known as rubber noise subduer.
The labels on these cues show that they have been played a lot.
Bumpers are cheap and easy so I would clean them up and use them for play.

It looks like none have veneered points so the value of these for conversions will be limited. The ferrules on these old cues were commonly Ivory.
Great find and a fun project to make them playable again.

I assumed the holes on the butt end were for bumpers, but I looked closer and unless my eyes seen wrong, they don't have threads. They look to be straight formed (drilled) holes. I was wondering if that's the center hole used to hold them in the lathe. I expected to see rough threaded holes made by a wood screw.

Send them to a cuemaker you trust to pin them and make you a few awesome sneakies!! 3/8-10 wood to wood.
Trust me on this!! 👊🏻

That's an idea I'll explore. So far I only have $30 invested in seven. I'm guessing the work to fix them up into good sneakies would be a few hundred each. Still might be worth it though.
