    Need info on an old Helmstetter

    By 16... you mean 4 points with 4 veneer/point or you mean points in forearm and butt that total 16 point assemblies? That specific information could drastically narrow or widen the field of possibilities... just wondering myself. Sounds nice. Good luck. Sent from my LG-MS770 using Tapatalk 2

    My Growing Cocobolo Collection

    KooKoo for Coco... I agree... all three are very nice. The Webb forearm is so eye-catching. Curly is one of my Fav's. I like all of them and would find it hard to pick one if I had to choose. Cool pics.

    Beginner that needs help finalizing decision!

    One more minor item to consider... If you keep your Schmelke cue and use it for a break cue later, the 13mm shaft will be a bit stiffer than a 12.5, given the same taper. It sounds like you are off to a great start on your first cue. Keep me posted on how you like it. Hopefully your college...

    curiosity got the better of me 'The name for the province of Saskatchewan comes from the Cree, who called the Saskatchewan River "Kisiskatchewani Sipi," meaning swiftly flowing river.' Taken from the web page http://canadaonline.about.com/cs/provinces/g/saskatchewan.htm Apparently the...

    Ultra Skin Tips

    How about other hardeness Ultraskins? Does anyone care to chime in on how the H or HH compare to a Medium Hard Triangle? I realize there is some diversity among hardness values in tips within a brand's category, but a ballpark guess is welcomed. Has there been any Hardness testing/analysis...

    Case of the Year 2012 - Jack Justis/Ron Ross

    add a survey to the poll? perhaps a survey where the voters rank from 1 to 5 the most important reasons for their vote... Then the highest average will give you the main reasons why they cast the vote the way they did. Maybe that is subjective too, but it could prove to be insightful. (if it...

    1st Cue of the year

    Great start to the new year... That is a Very nice cue you made there. The rings balance nicely with the BEM and lighter Coco. I am leaning toward letting the wood speak for itself in my cue ideas for upcoming build contracts (whenever that happens after my new cue comes in) and keeping...

    Are all linen wraps the same?

    D-4 Nylon... My D4 has a nylon wrap. I just started using it again after a long while. I had a new shaft made for it to use as break/player. Anyway, the nylon feels abrasive to my hand after shooting with it for a while. Personally, I love the Joss wrap. My DZ wrap is nice too. The Joss seems...

    Black Ash Burl and Indonesian Blackwood f/sale

    4th pic from top... It looks like it is wood and no insert...if that is what you meant. Either way it is a great looking cue. Jim has been busy.

    Where to buy a Diamond table from in Florida?

    Have you contacted Diamond to find an authorized dealer? Maybe a call to chat with the folks at a local or in-state billiards store. Sent from my LG-MS770 using Tapatalk 2

    threads... A rolled threading process does not remove material to form the threads. The threads are compressed into the metal stock/rod with machinery. This type of process strenthens the metal due to hardening from cold work. Grain flow patterns in the metal are not interupted when rolled...

    Jimmy's Cue

    Little help with an old Joss Limited cue?

    Try this as a starting point... This looks like a similar design. In the past while looking on Joss' web site, I have seen some of the "Customs" with the same forearms and different butts. (or at least close enough where I thought they were the same) Take a look at the 94-12 cue here. There are...
