Thank you. I will admit that truly loved the work. It really was a passion for Tony and me and I only wish we could have been less artistic and more business minded. Somewhere in that mix is a happy medium that we could never agree on nor figure out. Every step of everything we did was about the science of what a pool cue does. Fascinating stuff. We listened to everyone's opinions and untested theories then went about building a better mousetrap from the inside out. Great fun.
Won't be making it to the room on monday--problems at home are going to set this back for a few weeks--will try to make it down that way latter in the Month,,will look forward to meeting one and all

Hi Josh...sorry man, I just now saw your message to me. I had many, many Black Boars. When I left there I had an amazing piece that Tony Jr. and I designed and built but got disenchanted with the entire industry and sold it to a gent in Norfolk, VA along with the most gorgeous Whitten case you've ever seen. I fell on hard times and several years later asked Tony to make me a plain Jane which he did. A few years after that I had a meltdown of epic proportions and had no choice but to sell it and I haven't played since. It's been at least 10 or 12 years now.....actually closer to 14 since I hit a ball.
This is a milestone birthday. Happy Birthday to you! Enjoy it to the fullest! :)

Pancho El Poucho LMAO. I check Funny pic/gif daily and I have to say you have posted some of the best stuff on this site. Best regards John
Hi, I sent you another private message about the pechauer but this site is not showing me any kind of sent messages so I don't know if they're sending
Hi, Jam. This is going to sound unbelievable, but I just now saw this message. I don't check AZ very often anymore. Just too much drama for me. Anyway, thank you for wishing me a Happy Birthday as I honestly appreciate your thoughtfulness and hope that you are having a great year so far.
I have 2 right now built that is available. I getti g ready to start 4 cues this weekend
Rats! If it were not for the collar I would take it. if you learn of one all wood let me know. Thanks
Just saw that you responded to someone's post that you have a unused unchalked Scruggs sp shaft that you would sell for $210. I have a older Scruggs sp wood to wood with the Delrin but cap. I had it refinished by Scott Sherbine a few years ago, and have Ben thinking about picking up an extra shaft in part because mine has a small Birdseye that goes through the shaft so I worry about it breaking. So my questions are, is it a wood to wood shaft with no collar, is it perfectly straight, how old is it, and are you sure it is a Scruggs so that it it would have the same taper as mine, and oh yea, did the poster by it already?t
Hi Chuck;

It is definitely a TS shaft, in fact, still has Tim's writing on the tip with his customers initials (that's how Tim & Mike kept this straight at the shop). I bought an unplayed, unchalked, like brand new sneaky that came with two shafts so was looking to sell the one. It is a black phenolic collar which may not work for you. Let me know if still interested.

I think you have to join in other threads before you can post. Unless you're talking about that. Then choose the links at the bottom of the threads to reply.
I know you don't visit AzBilliards much, Terry, so I wished you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY on FB. That said, I hope it was a good one.
