    The magnificent Irving Crane

    I remember "The Deacon" winning the 1966 Salt City Open in Syracuse. He was from Rochester, NY and I believed he played out of the Olympic Bowl. I heard in the off season he sold Cadillacs. He seemed cool, calm, and in focus. A great player.

    Ku King Snooker Cue

    I just figured out the problem. The butt had two joint collars on it. A thin black one and a taller white one. The thin black one is missing and the tall white one was pushed down in it's place. Thus the reason for no pilot hole. Once I replace the missing black joint collar and put the white...

    Ku King Snooker Cue

    It looks like a piece was added to the inside of the joint collar on the butt so the pilot won't go in. The collar on the butt is white delrin or some plastic. It appears that the joint collar around the screw needs to be bored out for the pilot to fit. I'm working on pictures to show the...
