Real men don't give a rat's ass what other people think. I've got a buddy who's always popping off about stuff like this and I keep telling him no one cares what he thinks.

Please add me to the list of interested readers.

Here's a project I've done.

If that's all you've got that's not much.

You should check with cue repairmen, they are likely to have some laying around. I've just got a couple of blacks left that are 3/4 inch long but I have several whites that are about 1 1/4 inch long. I have the whites with either 5/16 or 1/4 tenon hole.

I forgot tips would have either been Elk Master or Le Pro. Fancy cues would have been Champions with a red fiber backing.

To replace ferrules you will need access to a lathe and it will be one that can handle a full length cue. If you're trying to restore them back to original condition you would likely want to use fiber ferrules in either white or black. That's what the house cues came with and the private cues...

Yeah that guy had lorded it over the whole town about how good he was. But he found out what a player really was.

I've read the book and have had a copy for about 30 years or so. My favorite scene was when he hopped a passenger train to go west not realizing there's no play to ride without a ticket on a passenger train and that's why you hop a freight train.

Probably not pirating since there's no ship involved, but I would think the publisher that owns the copyright might have an issue under this regulation. What is copyright infringement? As a general matter, copyright infringement occurs when a copyrighted work is reproduced...

This just means you need a bigger bolt.

I used to carry one of these.

Yeah it was what came on the old McDermotts, I believe it was made from cellulose (wood pulp) and cotton fiber and I'm sure plenty of chemicals. I have a bag of them too, still use one every once in a while.

This is probably caused by too many sh*t shots.

And he was a perfect gentleman and put forth a really good image for pool. I met him at a BCA show and I asked him to autograph a print I had of him and he said gladly and then asked if I would like for him to date it. He was getting on in the years at that time.

Back in about 1984 I was at a Clyde Childress memorial tournament in Richmond Ky. and bought into a raffle and won a Robert Weir cue and satin jacket. Weir was there and was showboating like he actually made the cues but in truth they were made by Adam on contract. I still have the satin jacket.

Robert Weir used the flying W on the forearm

Luther Lassiter played with a red ferrule for a good while.

When I felt I was playing my best I was rotating cues about every two weeks. They were all similar hits I used a Bill McDaniel, Josswest, Paul Mottey, early 80s Schon and a Gus Szanboti. I felt like as I rotated cues it helped me keep my focus and not relax too much and get sloppy.

Are we going to get a reasonable start time tonight or are we going to wait until after bed time for most people before the broadcast starts?
