Phil, no one is hating or trying to drive off anyone. Frankly, I doubt whether Leon could be driven off. This is certainly nothing new for him. And as far as other cue makers, many wouldn’t last here a week. This thread alone would get most banned.

I would think you of all people can understand the importance design plays in a product. It sells. If it didn’t, Leon wouldn’t be cutting and pasting other maker’s work and we wouldn’t be having this conversation. Think about it, here is someone who cares zero about your hard efforts to get where you are today and sees nothing wrong at bettering his own business at your expense. That is his bottom line and he has been very clear about it.


Who is Phil??? Anyway, there are many pros and cue makers that choose not to participate on this forum, however many of those do get a good laugh at all the nonsense! Have a good day everyone...
 
Sorry Dan, I have no idea who Phil is either (lol).

You're no doubt right about some being entertained by all this but I do know others who aren't. Guess you have to be in their shoes to understand.

No Problems, I was just messing with ya!
The one thing I think we all agree on is our love of pool. From the moment I walked into my first pool room in 1966 I was hooked. Honestly I don't know if it was the smoky, dark forbidding interior, the click of the balls or maybe it was the whole experience combined with the innocence of youth, but I was all in!
As far as cue makers doing similar looking cues I don't see an issue. BUT that is just my opinion and everyone has their own opinions which is fine. What I don't like or agree with is the insulting, name calling childish behavior that I read on a daily basis in many of the threads on AZ. Those school yard tactics are for kids and cyber bullies, in the real world many of the comments made in threads would never be said face to face. Over & Out!

Hey does that offer stand for me too, I can't wait to get my knee pads with my new "black sly" lmao. Oops I mean " Leon sly". Lol

just make sure you bring them chocolate chip cookies and i'll take it easy on you while your wearing those knee pads.:smile:
 
It's been very entertaining.

Eric, please explain to me in more detail about my cue being a exact copy....or if you want to talk about it feel free to call me i'm very easy to get along with 410-827-4966
my true opinion the only one who can make and exact copy of blk boar is tony himself.
1- why because he has his own geometry and cad drawings for his own cue designs.
the cue i got posted up might look (similar) but not identical.why because the cue was built by me ....not tony.
personally i don't think theirs anything wrong with building a cue with a similar look to another cue 'why' because it will never be the same identical cue as the original.
i'm not bending arms here or begging anyone to buy a custom made cue from me!!
i'm going to keep building cues for customers how they want them built i'm really sorry if this offends anyone.

As a copy I like the way you act clueless. As for calling you I have no need to (Sorry but I would never buy one of your cues) and for a lot of people they would rather buy the original than a copy that won't hold any value.

Do your thing Leon, haters be damned

That's the problem.. "you've heard".. I spend MY money always have, but that's not the point. How about you bring yourself and who you "heard" it from and stand in front of me, and we can discuss it.

But there is not pot, or kettle situation here.

JV

You just happen to pick the right one to say that to, I will gladly stand in front of your face
and tell you. So here's my number 812-722-8073 now as for when I'm sure you come to Derby City, so when your in town you give me a call I'll be at the tournament most every day.
I look forward to seeing you this Jan.
 
What are you doing Sly. Black Boar is a similar cue that sells for 20k. You should raise the prices on these particular designs.

Great Work!
 
ship tomorrow Jim.

Jim Harrison, i'll be shipping tomorrow!!
Let me know about #2 with burl handle:smile:

There not even close to being in the same league. It's like comparing an Chevy Impala and a Ferrari. Anybody that believes differently, doesn't have the faintest idea what they're talking about.

Jimmy,

I have the highest respect for you as you know, but I also like Leon's work.
Tony from BB has done amazing work and I am one of his biggest fans, but putting down Leon's work in terms of quality it's not very nice, that's all. Leon's work is top notch as well...

They both are the same great quality.

Just like a Mercedes is quality and Ferrari is quality. To be honest, Ferrari's paint jobs are horrible and I'm talking about the real car.
