Thanks Kim, that makes a lot of sense.

Hi, I have a cue which I want to change joint pins and also lengthen the butt. Many years ago I spoke to a cuemaker and he said he could add an inch on a cue joint without it having a detrimental effect on the playability. I think he said he could remove the pin and then plug the hole with maple...

Thank you. I bought a block of it to send to a cuemaker to do the work so I might spludge as i don't think i will have any other use for it. Thank you for your help.

Hi, I am having a cue restored with Elforyn joint collars and a radial joint. The shafts have different joints which need plugging and converting to fit the radial pin. Would Elforyn be a suitable and durable material to plug the shafts? Cheers

thanks for the info guys

Hi, I have an old brown leather Fellini case which has no rips but the leather is very worn and it has seen some action over the years. I also have an old Brunswick Black Leather Case with green felt lining which is in very good condition. I am considering selling the two cases and will take...

Hi, I can get a 9 foot snooker table and want to play Chinese 8-ball on it. Do you by any chance know the rail height of a Chinese 8-ball table? cheers

Hi, are you able to tell me the rail height on these tables? thanks :-)

I know, but I am a bit stuck as I live in WA and they don't play the game here and I can't buy a decent table other than Chinese knockoffs. I have looked at a Rasson or Diamond but they want 11K+ for them.

Hi, thank you I will have a look. They want 3K AUD but I am trying to get them down. I am guessing it will take a minimum of 3K to get it transported and then the body restored with new cloth and cushions. So I will be in for at least 6K, possibly more if i get any surprises..

Hello, I am thinking of buying an old Gold Crown 3 which has been sitting in a shed for a few years. I am in Australia and these tables are like hens teeth so I want to restore it. Are there any issues I should look for when inspecting the table before purchase, such as wood movement etc and how...

Has anyone gone through the process?

I am based in Australia and wish to travel overseas with my Black Boar. I have read that I will need a CITES Pre-Convention Certificate to travel with it. This covers: Asian elephants to the protected list on 1 July 1975 and African elephants on 26 February 1976. So if I can proved that the...

Yes in normal times, but you have no idea what position the company is in and how large their backlog is and how many customers they need to contact and what their human resources are. There might be one old guy sitting in the office with his head in his hands with no idea how to do the simplest...

Thats wonderful buddy I am very happy that you haven't been effected by the virus. Every struggling business on the planet should take a note from your book and TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY to criticise others who are experiencing difficulties in these extremely tough times. . I suppose that must be...
