Why don't you take some time and introduce yourself in the Cue Machinery & Supplies area, and describe your tips to the group. You've posted this same thing, 4 times now, just expecting people to click & buy. We have several established tip makers here with whom you're competing. Introduce...

Hubert Cokes, Titanic Thompson, and Minnesota Fats; that's a hell of a trio. I remember reading somewhere the "old" Fats that most know about was but a shadow of the "young" Fats that organized & collected. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when those three were roaming around.

Very nice. It always seemed to me, those proficient at snooker have a more precise cue delivery. At lease at the amateur level. Something to do with the smaller diameter balls & smaller tips.

A lot of history in that cue. So tempting.

Duffs were always solid cues. Many have been used as blanks for conversion.

Never saw them before. Nice cues. How do they play? Do you play snooker, or use them for pool?

Perfectly summarized, Hu. I love it when the old guard is summoned for red rep bombing. lol

To me, colloquially, they're almost interchangeable. I believe "Rambow-style" better denotes bumper-less. Some build "Hoppe-style" cues (white ring/black butt cap) but add a bumper.

You have to "spread rep around" before you can give it to the same person again. I honestly wouldn't worry about it. It was a mistake, and you've already contacted the person. Just circle back around in a while after you've given some rep to others. Not many people check it, anymore. I do, but...

Could you send pictures of the Tad only to me? Text: 304.268.0431 Email: ja3robinson@gmail.com

Hey, CC. I remember Raist Chen; he had some nice cues and was a hell of a shooter, as well. Here's Tate's website: http://www.palmercollector.com/Titlist.html

The Titlist was a veneered one-piece "house" cue built by Brunswick and used as "blank" from which jointed cues were made by numerous builders. A Hoppe-style cue is a cue with a short black buttcap and no bumper. Most often it is accompanied by an Ivory (or white) ring directly above, like Mr...

Joss never made a cue with a sideways "W". Billy Stroud made Joss West cues with a sideways "W".

I agree, that's nice.

God Speed, Michael. "And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light." You must fight.

The majority of what I've seen and compared has been ivorite. That's the material I've been collecting for some years, and selling to a select few. Cutting into the three, the ivorite is the brightest cream/faint yellow, Ivory cuts to white, and antique ivory cuts to a dull off-white/yellow...

Now, I would say any of the three could be considered the "good stuff", as you first have me quoted: "Just to be clear, are you saying they were using the "paper decoratives" in the "Ivory" color version of the three colors you described? (Ivory, Antique Ivory, or Ivorite)" The "good stuff" is...

Agreed. I stock UltraSkins, SIBs, and Milk Duds. No better tips out there for the money.

I have some actual Meucci Originals ferrule blanks if you want one. Josh
