The easy answer would be a lathe, shit Ariel lost his fingers (luckily they didn't go far) to a router attached to the lathe but leaving the chuck key in while starting it or having long hair/long sleeves around a lathe could be bad news. Over time certain finishes or woods will kill you if you...

If you didn't take the comment out of context then it would make sense, do you report the news by any chance? And I have seen someone almost lose an eye because of a faulty Billiard product, my guess is that if you try hard enough you could come up with a piece of pool equipment that could...

*double post* Wish there was a way to delete posts like this, if there is a way someone please teach me. Thank you. Neil

Yeah because years and years of R & D is free, you can take anything in any industry basically and the sum of the product pieces won't add up to the retail cost. Making things isn't that expensive but learning how to make things that perform well, don't kill it's users and is protected by...

Yup, cuemaker out of Riverside California...not sure if he's still around making cues. Neil

I bet Rex-kwon-do is doing great these days seeing as how the UFC is such a hit and more people are into self-defense than ever. Maybe we can learn from Rex, he's not a failure because he goes home to Starla every night. Forget about it!! Neil

Only 1 sticks out that can be confirmed, beat Ronnie Alcano in the 2002 US Open hill-hill being down 1-7 or 1-9. This was the first year he splashed onto the East Coast scene and had won the Joss Tour that year plus he was billed as the "Next Efren" by those whispering in the stands. So of...

It's the only time when someone asked for the "8" but the guy could only give her the "5", poor guy didn't have the game to take her home. Neil

Hard to get a proper finish without a lathe it's definitely worth it if you find someone that can wax shafts for a good price, otherwise your shoulder/arm will be so sore it will probably throw your stroke off. Neil

Almost got me laid to rest a couple of times, as far as the sex part goes...it's a definite maybe. Neil

Welcome to the pool world, the only thing that changes as you proceed up the ladder is that it becomes the money that disappears and not the spot. Neil

So what you're saying is that the APA rating system is flawless and nobody should have a different thought in their head? Okay. Neil

I'm very lucky to have started at a pool hall on my 18th birthday and that the owners also owned Hard Times Bellflower, so I was privy to a lot of extraordinary things. Watching Busty and CJ play for $5k, seeing Okamura play before he stopped coming to the US, hearing Coltrain & Watson barking...

Every single handicapped event I've ever seen has been geared toward the lower skill leveled player, because they make up usually 60%-80% of the field. It makes sense and good business, plain and simple. Neil

That's the awesome part, even knowing what to look for & slowing things down it's sometimes hard to see the trick being done. It's great seeing someone do their thing when it's obvious they put a lot of time, effort and imagination into their craft....very impressive. Neil

I wanted to put a bet down on Toasti before the tournament began but missed the window to try and drum up some action, damn it!! Neil

I was thinking either Players or Fury but can't be sure without seeing more of the cue, it will at least point us in the right direction if we can get the manufacturer pinned down. Neil

Who made the cue? Can you show pics of the joint, butt cap and overall cue so that more research can be done and you'll have more information about the artwork on it. Neil

Wow I remember that guy from Hard Time in La Habra in like 1993-1996, Anton Reniti or something like that right? Nice to see someone that makes it "big", he was a nice guy and always entertaining. Neil

Thought you might put it in the user's avatar or signature but I have them turned off which I figured most people do also, since some of us get carried away with such things. So your example of using the "custom user title" is a pretty good idea but you'd have to sacrifice your snazzy tagline, I...
