I know absolutely nothing about the intricacies of cue identification. If it doesn't have a maker's signature on it, I got nuthin'. As a result, I enjoy the "ID me" threads because I learn things from those of you who knowthings... In that light, can someone explain what x-raying the cue will...

An interesting little update. I have a little 10" bandsaw that I use for small items and tighter radius cuts. It has a weird 2.1" OD dust collection port. I emailed Gus at Mullet yesterday and he said that one wasn't in their catalog of tools. He asked me for a model number and a pic with...

Every time I watch Tommy Kennedy, I wonder how he makes 3 balls in a row...

I have their hose kit and intend to get the cyclone. They make a great product. I use it with a little Ridgid 4000 vac. Works great in my little shop and handles just about everything I throw at it, including jointer and planer as long as I don't get crazy...

Am I understanding this right? When he says "play a rack of 8 ball", The player is simply breaking and playing by himself? Playing an 8 ball ghost? Adding points until he misses and then moving to the next rack?

^^^ This ^^^ Unless you're deep into 8 figures already, if you're "investing" in pool cues, you need to talk to an investment professional...

Is this a trick question?

Yeah, I don't see leagues changing that one. Even more "competitive" leagues want to attract a certain number of newer, less skilled players. While I disagree, I think the leagues will be afraid of scaring away those newer players...

Yup. Buyer beware though. The last time I swung by Chris Nitti's shop I told him that his cue was defective because it didn't make very many balls. He said that wasn't covered... 😂

Duck behind the 5

Now back up over the little shit stain!

You're playing with some of the better players in the state for sure. Regardless though, my comment was a bit tongue in cheek and pertains to the average bar/tavern. Damn, I still miss a good old Wisconsin corner bar!

I grew up in Wisconsin. Probably long before you, playing in Frank (Sailor) Stellman's room in Racine. I beg to differ. In fact, looking at Wisconsin's top players, I notice that it only takes a Fargo of 634 to break into the top 100 players in the entire state. And they tend to gravitate...

It It's also worth noting that a modestly skilled player can often follow, draw, or apply throw to the OB with a jump shot in cases where it would be difficult or even impossible to do so with a kick...

True dat.

Good to know. I love to push out to a relatively easy jump shot when playing people who think like that... 😁

Nice! 👍👍

Stupid should hurt!
