Not my experience. if that works for you then great.

Quartersawn wood is more stable when building furniture. When you turn something round it eliminates the quartersawn aspect.

What’s great is when you take a package to the post office, they print their own label, you buy insurance, the lose the package and it was never scanned and then they deny you any refund whatsoever. Happened to me more than once. Bunch of f@$king morons.

I wish I had the talent to scrimshaw them myself like Bill does. If things were different and there was a bright future for utilizing that talent on my cues I’d try to learn. Have always admired Bill’s work. They play great too of course.

These are two I built for a collection. Scrimshaw by Sandra Brady. I hope the pictures aren’t too large, sizing them correctly isn’t my forte. one cue is called Two Dragons. The other is The 60’s. Long time in production. Dragons cue is a one piece handle. I am the maker. Thanks for looking.

We’re not wearing masks here in north Florida. I know of no one in the pool room where I play that has gotten it.

It doesn’t matter to me. I just noted what he stated in his letter. I doubt a cuemaker with his experience would make that mistake but I could be wrong. If you say the butt weighs 20 oz by itself then we’ll go with that.

Letter from Tascarella states the butt weighs 16.04 oz., not 20 lol

After returning to cuemaking a few years ago I switched to a marine grade finish for my cues, it is called Awl Wood. Made by Awl Grip. I used it for some Burmese Teak front doors I built for a house some years back. It is by far the most durable finish I have ever used or seen. It will shine...

Good. I’m tired of government choosing winners and losers.

Don’t two of the Ko brothers play with SW?

Usually Park but if you want to come to town and match up I can help you out.

You could bite the bullet and go to Jacksonville, plenty of action there.

So I guess nobody wants to see the ivory handle cues I’m building lol. Some states are so incredibly stupid they have even banned mammoth ivory. Worried those mammoths are gonna go extinct? I think it happened thousands of years ago.
