Your brain creates it. It does not exist in the physical world.

I don't think so.

Yeah. Well, I discussed it outside the forum. I guess I let the cat out of the bag...but not the cat's name. :unsure:

I lived there for a couple years 25 years ago. I played mostly snooker at a local snooker club, with my Joss. There were some local pubs with tiny coin op pool tables. Honestly the proportions of everything was so screwed up, it was challenging to adjust. I will be curious to know if the...

The post apocalypse cue. That could be out of Mad Max or something like that.

Interesting observation.

I would say that depends on the finish of the leather. There is a huge variety.

Yup. Hard to tell. They share a lot of basic parts, probably same suppliers. And I believe some things like blanks have been shared as well. There is currently a brand selling out after the cue maker died, that I am pretty darn sure were Taiwan imports. If eel it is a touchy subject since...

I had someone ask me whether or not their nitroglycerin tablets would explode if they dropped them. Yup...happens every day. :unsure: :ROFLMAO: 🤪 ;)

Nice examples! Nice group! I really dig those cues. That's kind of the look I am after with the group I am building, but more plain with no veneers.

We have a winner! There have been many great suggestions, and some interesting thoughts about why certain types of wraps and colors would work. Partly because it is what I like, and partly because I want to contribute to the theme of the group of cues I am putting together, I am going with...

Necessity? I highly doubt that. More of a style I would say. Advantage? I think in practical performance terms none. But like many things in pool it is psychological or ritualistic.

And slimmer/lighter cues, and tighter pockets. The games have changed, and so has the equipment, hence the techniques evolve.

Your mind also makes up false facts, false knowledge. The more you memorize, the more false knowledge your mind creates. It's an interesting thing that I run into teaching medicine. The most inferior way to learn is rote memorization. Not only does it not include understanding, relevance, or...

I haven't seen that. Must be entertaining. You can also look up Anton Syndrome. It's a rare disorder where a person is blind but thinks they can see. Their brain can manufacture "sight". As a demonstration that your brain constantly does such things, you have been reading this while not...

Yup. 👍 👍 👍

So on this subject...I played hooky from work and went to the pool hall. My break cue tip has been wonky shaped, really crooked, and the shaft needed attention. I'm busy and have had lots of excuses to neglect fixing it myself. So I handed my shaft to to the manager. He put it on the lathe...

I'll trade a brand new Joss for it, even. Keep the case.

Adam. Early. I'm out. Will likely have exact model when I get back to my office.
