    Wood

    Man I learned the hard way about coring. I was of the belief that stabilizing added structural integrity until I snapped a couple pieces of beautiful wood. It really doesn’t compensate in weak spots like I thought it would. If I would have cored I could have drop filled easily. I’ve opened up...

    your paying too much for cues

    I’d rather lay a cue on a table than at an angle on a rack. If the full length of the cue is supported how is that worse?

    your paying too much for cues

    Most competent cue makers, even hobbyists cue makers like myself take small passes and let the wood rest in between cuts. It’s pretty obvious which pieces will need to be discarded. Coring can solve problems as well. I suppose if someones wanting to debate that or split hairs they’d argue that...

    your paying too much for cues

    I don’t care how anyone spends their money. I’ve had experience with expensive cues warping as well as cheap cues. I’ve got a handful of 20-30 year old cues, including shitty house cues and cheap Chinese shit that stills rolls straight. In my experience cost isn’t nearly the determining...

    Pia Filler Makes History as First (and only) Female Pro on WNT

    Guys like you are some of the biggest hypocrites around. You swear to stand for individual freedom and rights. Like a private business appointing whoever they choose to their tournament. But if it’s a woman or god forbid an lgtbq person your principles and convictions become flexible. Your...

    McDermott Chops Cues

    For whatever it’s worth I noticed my chops cue and others are very uniform. It looks to me like they’re made from stock for boards that aren’t shaped out yet. Just flat plywood. I found when cutting up my son’s broken boards that getting the lines to be uniform is hard because these boards...

    McDermott Chops Cues

    So I’m working on 3 cues of this style. All are centered on the handle being from the skateboards. With forearm and butt being something else. The one pictured will have a purpleheart forearm and butt. Regular maple shaft. No inlays. Simple and basic design. I have another that will have...

    McDermott Chops Cues

    I’m making these myself. My son skates and his sponsors fund new boards when he breaks them. These won’t be as over the top as Chops. I’m also a hobbyist not a full time cuemaker so they’ll be on the more basic side of things. It’ll be a few months before any are done if you’re interested let me...
