    Arvorin Rod for Sale - Ivory substitute.

    I got some of all sizes. Joint size drilled and bored nicely. (OD hasn't been machined, in the pict ....that's the way it came). Ferrule size drilled and tapped nicely. Yet to finish a cue using the material. Am currently building two cues which will use the material as a testing ground.

    Arvorin Rod for Sale - Ivory substitute.

    No problems turning, cutting, drilling, boring or tapping here either. Suspect chipping issues may be due to using dull tools, or trying to remove too much stock too quickly. Image attached is off the tool, no sanding or finish.

    Butt foul?

    An interesting read, my first thoughts were if it's in any kind of decent tournament, the ref could call it a foul as most sports have a general rule about "Bringing the Game into Disrepute", and if in their opinion (the Refs), the player, being a lazy *****, or a smart ass by shoving their cue...

    can someone explain Joss cues. some are expensive, some aren't. the letter styles?

    Interesting, I guess there is no chance those items were in there to absorb any moisture or condensation that might form during transport / storage ?

    taps on Ebay.

    Hi again, Thanks for the thread info. :thumbup: Regarding your listings, I am aware you do not list on e-bay.au as such, but when I do a search for an item such as a 5/16 14 tap (of which there will be none listed on ebay.com.au) , I would normally get a listing of items that match that...

    Bois de rose & holly butterfly

    Lovely Cue, always great to see the Butterfly cues representing !! Are the butterflies high / low (like you often do) or are these ones even. Hard to tell from the picts. Finish and ringwork is spectacular. :thumbup:

    taps on Ebay.

    I got a couple and they seem nice quality. Delivery was fast to Australia. :thumbup: I just had a search and I can't find any of your listings on e-bay by searching in E-bay-Au, in fact it was difficult to find you at all in the first place. I think I only found you through a link on this...

    Belgium the n°1 country for pool in europe

    Wow, I am amazed you say it's her first try at C8B. I watched her game vs Allison Fisher, and she really only lost out due to a little match play inexperience and a couple of bad position shots towards the end of the racks. Her single ball potting ability looked better than Allison's, and...

    Belgium the n°1 country for pool in europe

    Take a bit of time and watch some of the vids on YouTube of kamila khodjaeva. That's a name and face women's pool will be seeing a lot more of in the future. Textbook technique, and amazing potting ability on the Chinese 8 Ball tables.

    Ban safety shots.

    I hear what the OP is saying. There are days I just wanna pocket balls, and there are people who just wanna bring you down by playing safety. I have a game for this, I call it "No Safe 9 Ball". If you miss or can't continue your run, your opponent gets ball in hand. Problem (mostly) solved...

    Looking for a CueSmith II or III

    Cue Man Billiards .... I got my Deluxe from Chris almost 15 years ago. He managed to send it Down Under no problems at all. Highly recommended.

    Challenge of Champions dump

    Probably going over old facts, but why the hell would Bud let it go hill hill if he was dumping it. I know the vid looks bad, but why would you risk it getting that close. Just doesn't make sense. I also enjoyed the famous snooker reference. Surely the only reason Davis could miss a shot...

    Another Jerry Rauenzahn 360

    Well, since you ask..... They are not perfect by any means. In the pictures of both cues you have presented, there are many things that are not perfect. Butterfly cues (seem to be) much harder to master / construct than points, and most people don't seem to know what to look for when judging...

    The True Record Hi Run

    Interesting read this thread. I see lots of Stupid people arguing about menial facts, and I see Old Timers clinging on to remnants of the past. Exactly what one expects to see on the internet. I have no problem with any of this. But in this day and age, cameras are cheap, and if anyone was...
