    Poll: smoking and pool

    You should have a 4th choice. 4) I'm smart enough not to smoke tobacco. If I go outside it will be to fire up a joint.

    Boring clear acrylic rod for window

    Better yet, this is available in tube form. I've used it before. The inside is nearly imposible to get looking right if you bore it but using the tube it's easy enough to turn the outside to size and polish out.

    Angle Calculations?? Bob Jewitt??

    Frankly Chris. I can't see how knowing the precise degree of the angle helps anything. In my pea sized brain those details do nothing but confuse the issue. Any way you look at it, you just have to shoot how you feel it's necessary to make the shot. The same goes for all those "quarter ball"...

    Check out this new Twisted Turtle Custom Cue

    This cue looks very nice but if you don't mind I would make one suggestion. It's been my experience that when you decide where to make the division on a jump break cue you do not want a thin ring such as your silver ring to be where you make the break. It will hold up better if you have a...

    1954 Popular Science

    In one of those old Popular Science or Popular Mechanics magazines there's a story about a jig for turning wood dowels on a table saw that gave Dave Kersenbrock his idea to build a saw based shaft machine. I love old magazines not just for the articles but as Joey pointed out, it's neat to see...

    F.S. Custom Schon Cue

    quoted from Sherm: "Unique" I assume would be a "one of a kind" design that would not be repeated. A custom wouldn't necessarily be One of a kind, just ordered special and as a customer desired using standard design concepts. It makes sense to me but I'm no authority on Schon Cues. I'd like...

    Did Allison Fisher leave Cuetec?

    Wow I'm sorry to hear that! I was hoping she would follow Earl's lead and get a custom cuemaker to build her a cue she could win with again!

    How tight is three and a quarter inch pockets?

    That would make or a brutally tough table. Much too tight. Some might tell you it would make a good practice table but that's ridiculous. You'd probably not be able to shoot a ball down the rail and make it and while tight tables can be good to tune up your game a little, when you take it to the...

    TVmike has proven untrustworthy

    I don't know about that Chris. I've been using USPS Priority for many years and have NEVER had the first problem with them. It's also the most economical way to send something with a couple of days delivery time. They will also provide shipping containers (Triangle tubes) perfect for shipping...

    TVmike has proven untrustworthy

    I really sorry to hear this Jay. I know you gave him every chance to do the honorable thing even after he took advantage of you by not living up to his original agreement. I also know that you're an honorable man who would rather give the guy the benefit of the doubt than make a big deal about...

    F.S. Custom Schon Cue

    No, As I stated in the Ad, I made the assumption that this was a special order since I could not find a cue like this in the on line catalog. There are some that are similar that have no veneers or some with veneers but no inlays in the points etc.. I'm certainly not trying to mislead anyone. If...

    Gus Szamboti cue on ebay

    I have one that looks newer that that but it still has the original tips installed by Gus when he built the cue shortly before his death. This cue can be bought for slightly less than the starting bid on the one on ebay.
