I think it’s more important to leave the interpretation wide open at least in this first year and see what is made ,bring on the Cnc trickery and the Russian butterflies

I think your missing the point Not all of them would be made from blanks I would love to see some of the Russian recut stuff in it This isn’t about who makes the cleanest traditional full splice it’s more about pushing the boundaries of what can be made with a full splice

I’m kicking around an idea to hold a full splice cue building contest. (Format to be determined) With the intent to draw some attention to the dying art of the full splice cue , I’m inviting anyone who would like to participate. The cues can be built off of a blank /tiltlist/house cue/new...

John is a great blank maker and a pioneer when you buy a Gus a Spain or a bushka your buying much more than the sum of its parts your buying history knowledge and all that comes with it It is much the same way with John’s work It’s my pleasure to call John a friend His blanks will have a...

Richard Black 360 2 of 2 Richards Black 360 that Richard titled “2017” Gold and silver inlays

If this is true I wasn’t aware that I was banned Are you sure I was a member what is the name of your group Also if I did have a meltdown (I didn’t) that would be very out of character for me If I remember right I believe my comments were about you and Daniels professionalism

You just did something not unlike what Chuck Bates was accused of in the original thread By omitting some of the more inflamitory parts of the messages

John you left out a great deal of of his insulting and childish behavior in the private messages

It is precisely as I said , the post I made here is 100% accurate There is a long list of private messages between Stephen and I that backs my story Including you and Stephen attempting to make me Kiss the ring in order to be let back in.

I never said that Stephen requesting that wouldn’t be an effective way of seeing if chuck bates doctored some private messages I said that the request is an overstep of authority

For me this has never been about the quality of Johns cases or character

The super easy resolution that John is describing was to say some childish (for lack of a better word) password or pass phrase to Stephen I’m not a child I’m a businessman so yes I declined And the original post I made is here is 100% accurate I didn’t distinguish what level of access...

Just for clarification Daniel le was not involved at all. It was another admin name Stephen framstad

So a new and interesting development has taken place I was banned from the open billiards market on Facebook ( I’ve never been banned from any forum) The story : a random hobbyist cue maker appears to have been involved in a shady deal ( most likely the cue maker is the one at fault from my...

I started building on a 14" delta later I bought a big laguna thinking I would switch my fixture over to it That was a couple years ago still working on the delta Something to keep in mind is that this fixture only makes half of a full splice and the other half in my opinion is much more...

Richard Black Received this from Richard Black a couple months ago Richard finished out 2 of my blanks and entitled them 2017 he kept one and I got the other one He just unveiled his at the iccs show It is quite a show stopper of a cue

2017 I haven't hit a ball with it My intent is to eventually sell it but I haven't had the time to really take quality pictures and really haven't come up with a fair price ( and I like looking at it ) Richard unveiling his 2017 at the international cue show this weekend
