Wonder if anyone has had any luck finding a split die holder for a midAmerica, Cueman style tailstock. I'm looking to be able to thread a joint for a collar so maybe 3/4 16.
Thanks

Great price on a unique one of a kind playing machine!

They sell them on ebay and they are from China the inside diameter is 38.1 mm which is suppose to equate to 1.5 inches , which is the outside diameter of most dies. However, you will have to machine the inner diameter a little bit , with a boring bar. Other than that they work great

Inevitable the forearm and one or all of the shafts will be warped. That should be considered.

It is worth whatever the market will bear. 2k is a good price to start. I dont think an estate sale gets you the buyers, unless cue collectors can find it and bid live.

Needs a refinish. The Cortland linen line wrap can be cleaned up and left on. Any decent cuemaker can tape off the wrap when refinishing. Refinished it is a $2500 cue, so it really doesn't add a lot of value, but the cue deserves proper restoration.

So I concede. Fargo gives you a true rating. I have beaten one player in the last 3 years above my fargo. So that being said anyone running a 637 and under tournament ? I could maybe cash in that as long as no fargo sandbaggers show up.

Unreal case............

I bought an old Gina that looked so bad I thought it might not be salvageable.

He refinished it and made it look brand new.

I’m guessing this woman in question has likely heard about her bad timing. Hopefully she feels bad about it and has learned from this.

Where they hiding at?

Yeah, I should have made that clear.

In taking the "over 11 days to break and run," I was saying you play the cue ball as it lies after the break. I would assume there would be several days with no shot to even hit the one directly, and a scratch on the break as well.

Exactly! I've been playing the 10-ball ghost a lot lately. I beat it 8 sets in a row now and felt pretty good about myself! I tried doing it without BIH and lost 9-1. I'd have lost 9-1 if all I had to do was make the one ball to win. Made me realize I suck at breaking...
