    Smooth deal with 'sixpack'

    I worked with the engineers & pipefitters on most of the large loft conversion projects downtown. Unusual and interesting scenarios with these old buildings, especially the startup with little or no load on the heating & cooling systems.

    Southwest cues - reasons for their popularity

    South West cues have a certain look and feel that draws in a lot of players and collectors. It is surprising how many different types of buyers want South West cues. You never know who is going to be interested in a South West. Quite a phenomenon like there is a mystique to a pool cue. The...

    Some of the big collectors are a world of knowledge about cuemakers who are up and coming, or cuemakers you might not think about on your own. For instance I remember 15-years ago Fatboy told me about Sugartree. Everyday I see guys looking for certain cues they must have played with or someone...

    I'm saying that I understand how important the balance is, not to be confused with the ridiculous "balance point" question. As far as ordering a custom cue, I have to like the way the cuemaker does things, balance is one, but I've never discussed the "balance point" with a cuemaker. I've never...

    vertically-challenged, horizontally

    We all have our favorite specifications and some cues are just inherently butt heavy or back-weighted. You always hear people say a 16 ounce South West butt doesn't feel heavy, so they obviously do a nice job of balancing a cue butt. I have a 16 oz. South West butt right now, and it doesn't feel...

    Balance point is a coefficient to nothing. In all the years of dealing with cues every day, I have never sold a cue to a guy who asked what the balance point is. In fact I have never even had a response back after I've answered the question. Balance point is basically a copout question asked...

    Played pool at a bowling alley. Never again. Questions?

    Over the years there has been a lot of nice pool rooms in bowling alleys. It used to be a common thing, and still is to a certain extent. I played APA in-house at the Holiday Bowl in Denver for several years, and at the time it was much nicer than the crappy bars I had to travel to playing VNEA...

    What is the deal with these Cues - see ad on Ebay ?

    I think Ebay is going to be the best deal on these "rare" and "vintage" cues. You can't blame a guy for trying to make a buck but he doesn't need to embellish his description to the point of being ridiculous. Typical Ebay bullshit
