    Help me decide the wrap!

    When I sold my cue making shop, I still had a half pound of Courtland, #9 Irish linen that was White with Green Speck. Back, in the day, I sold some here on the forum to cue makers doing restoration / refinishing valuable cues. But, I agree that the discontinued Blue Mountain green speck Irish...

    I agree with you, any billiard cloth will turn over time because of and dirty balls. I used to vacuum and wipe my tables down sometimes 3 times a day. I once used Simonis 860, on my pool tables and 760 on my billiard table. With all the league play and consistent business I was very seldom able...

    Woods are the same way, Cocobolo is very toxic. I always wore a mask and long sleeve shirt when turning it or sanding it. Because, it would cause irritation on all exposed skin. Ebony, also caused irritation for some people, but not me, only Cocobolo.

But, sometimes there use to be...

    You’re certainly correct, I am familiar with that whether true or false. I also wore a dust mask when sanding the forearm of Titlist cue during a refinish. The earlier model Brunswick cue (26 1/2) didn’t have those veneers, it was replaced by the Titlist in the 1940s. Thanks for the information!

    Time for new pool balls - Aramith Tournament Pro-Cup or Brunswick Centennial

    I with the Brunswick Centennial ball, I personally prefer them over any other brand, based upon my experience they last longer if cleaned regularly.

    Closet queen.

    When I grew up, closet Queens were never spoken about in public!!!!🤣🤣🤣 That case is BEAUTIFUL and it doesn’t deserve to be kept in a closet. I am not familiar with the case maker, but he certainly does fantastic work, I am truly jealous. We have a fantastic case maker here on the forum also, his...

    Ebony and Maple, No Veneers

    You know, I was thinking about that Wrap. It might also look good with White Irish linen with green spec, similar to the original Courtland #9 used back in the day.

    Has anybody seen this logo before?

    I don’t think it’s a logo, just the persons name who owned the cue. I have done similar things for my customers. Can you remove the bumpers and post a photo of the bottom of the cues?
