Don't recall ever seeing this thread before today. Thanks for your concerns. Yes, I'm still on this side of the grass and life is good. Hope all is well with all my friends in the cue community. Flunked retirement - again - and bought a tool shop that makes plastic and rubbermolds. A log...

Jim, There's only one way to describe these cues. "Simple elegance". You may want to consider having the other cue makers you respect make cues using the same basic materials, ebony, snake wood, silver and ivory. It would make for a beautiful collection. Regards, Tony

MartinoCues Web Site Revised with Enlargements Please re-visit the website www.martinocues.com. I've included a couple of views of each cue that can be enlarged to show much better detail. Thanks, Tony

Thank you for your comments. We'll be getting some blown up views of the cues on the site in the near future that will further define the fine design and execution of today's custom cue makers. Thanks again.

You're comments about the quality of the pictures is absolutely correct. There is a great deal of time required to get the initial quantity of pictures up on the site and close-ups will be forthcoming. Stay tuned and we'll try to get the close-ups on the site as soon as possible. In the...

[COLOR="Red"]Two things. 1. I've seen people forget and weigh cues with the shaft and joint protectors on. 2. I found a good digital scale at Office Max that has both grams and ounces for less than $30.00Two comments.

This post is for John. I was too late to get in as a backer but in the future, I certainly don't want to cut out any of those who did back you but if and when you need a backer or any portion thereof, please pm me.

Little Jon is a trip!!! More amazing than Little Joh is his horse, Tony Watson. I never saw a player so wired never miss a ball. I think he had a beer for every game he won in the challenges. He had a run that had to be an $8,00 to $10,000 run and just kept hollering at Little Jon that he...

I have one of Thomas's one of a kind in ebony and ivory that is really unique for $5,000. PM me and let me know if you have an interest and I'll send you some pictures.
