I met neil at the SBE and test drove his cue with his tip set up. Not that the system is anything I could get excited about, the cue with his tip system, surprisingly, hit pretty damn solid. The system seemed very well made. Barry

that's a very nice looking cue. It has a somewhat traditional look, it's a classic. Adding a leather wrap such as lizard, elephant etc; will take away from that classic look. I would think just a black textured leather would be great. It would still be somewhat traditonal and keep the...

Holly looks great!

I've used both methods of heating the pin to break the epoxy. With drilling, you're not really drilling the pin out, you're causing friction to create heat and then you can turn the pin out by reversing the the lathe with the bit still drilled into the pin. the pin will usually come right out...

George has been calling me about this thread and thought I would participate. I do see it has drifted from it's original question, but anyway Chris and Blud seemed to have covered things pretty well. I think the ACA and ICA are fine organizations helping the individual promoting his craft...

I have received two pm's in the past that were not for me. so, it seems possible to me..... I never replied or investigated if they were addressed to someone else. Barry <thinks PM's are a poor communication....

I have no experience with the porper or Unique products. I have been doing business with Chris Hightower for over 10 years. Chris's equipment does exactly what Chris says it will do. Plus Chris is always available to help in any way he can. You should give Chris and the others a call.

90% of the time, what the tip wobble means is that the joint facings are not flush. It could even be caused by dirt on either the shaft facing or butt facing. For demonstration, screw your shaft and butt together and leave it loose, slide a small piece of paper, flat, into one side of the loose...

If you venture over there, you'll find no thread topics concerning AZ banishments or the monitor at AZ. It's of little interest. What you'll find is a great bunch of folks enjoying the freedom to discuss their pool interests and not spending all their time editing posts and looking over their...

I'll be there, lower level, booth #19. Barry

I thought Matt was just offering informative information. Barry

Hi Joe, you need to come visit us sometime, it's been awhile.... Anyway, I have to disagree with you on this. As you probbably know, absolute power, corrupts. That's why our government and legal system is constructed with checks and balances. I would certainly hate to go before a person that...

I agree Dick.... Everyone has there own opinion as to how a cue hits, if you don't like the hit, feel etc; then return it or we'll change it. Barry

Just a suggestion. Get the customers order by stressing a full refund within 10 days after receipt. If the customer doesn't like the cue for some reason, return the cue "in like new condition" (which should be stressed) within 10 days for a full refund. If you do your quality job, then you...

I don't post very much on AZ (to afraid I might not dot an i or cross a t) but, I've been a part of public forums for years, even back during the Prodigy days. The problems with AZ isn't Jimbo or other people that have been booted. The problem is the moderation of the these forums. People have...

Hi Ginky, good to hear from you and Bobby Hunt says give us a call some time. I think the "idea" of the IPT and it's start was great for pool. We all know pool needs an influx of money and some organization. I know you're a smart guy, and was wondering what you're thoughts on what needs to...

Tommy can be contacted through his website or phone at www.tnscues.com. Super nice guy. I find a phone call is better than his email. Barry

I don't care for the hit of a Predator, but that is me. Apparently, there are many that are ok with the hit. I also don't believe in the magical cue to replace practice. But I will do what the customer wants, within reason. Barry C. cameroncues.com

My vote would be for the cuesmith. I've had one for 8 years, drug it around to many tournaments in the back of the car and it's still going strong. Besides, Chris Hightower is super for after the sell service and help. Barry c.
