    Dealer Prices Without Having To Be a Dealer On Cases, Wraps, & Billiard Accessories

    These are nice cases and good deals. There are a lot of folks at the pool hall who have Gil Castillo cases and everyone's happy with them. I had gil do a wrap for me on one of my old cues (before I sold it) and boy did it play nice. () Waiting to see how generous Uncle Sam is with my taxes...

    Last of the original deano cues

    Adding to this, I bought a 60" deano cue from Deano and took the supposed "leap of faith". And pretty much found out what everyone else on the forums already knew: Deano is a great seller, and especially fun to talk to on the phone. Deano is a great seller, the cue is as he describes, and if...

    WTB: SNEAKY PETE or Plain Jane.

    Ron Trager Sneaky Pete I have a Ron Trager Sneaky Pete for $120 shipped. It's about 13mm, I would think about 18oz (no scale). Probably a moori medium tip. I see that you are a bears fan, but not sure if you live in Chicago. If so, we can meet at one of the pool halls and you can give it a...

    Windy city cue show......?????

    This cue show was fun. The only downside is it was 1 day (though I understand why). The cue show is always a good and bad thing for me. Good because there are a ton of cues and most people let you try them out. Bad because I'll try them, love them and not even think about value or price...

    Looking for 5/16x14 sneaky for bar play

    Trager Sneaky I have a trager sneaky. 5/16x14 piloted, true sneaky, nice tall points. 13mm tip, moori medium. Perfect bar beater, but has more feed back and plays better than any cue at that price range. Very well balance and hits like bricks. Not sure if butt is 15 oz, but I assume it...

    Some hand cue repair at home (hand sanding shafts edition)

    Just a drill? That's not a bad idea actually. When I did this, I would have to sand and spin the shaft by hand (i had a system of counting how many "passes" i made each time). Once the shaft heated up, I would stop and let it cool, then attack it again. I only had 80 grit, 120, 600, and...

    Some hand cue repair at home (hand sanding shafts edition)

    Below are my main players right now. The trait they both share is the fact I've hand sanded both shafts. Blasphemy right? :thumbup: Before I get thrown into the fire, here's my reasoning: 1. Because I figured these cues have almost no resale value, it didn't matter if I could experiment...

    Lambros VS Cognoscenti

    No weight bolts in the cogs. They were naturally balanced. Joe Gold only added weight bolts if you wanted a heavy cue (after giving you shit for wanting to play with a heavy cue :D ). The cogs i've played with range from 16oz-18.5oz. And since I'm in Chicago here, I've had a chance to try...

    Old Pool Halls --- Need your help !!!!

    I've never heard of Howard-Paulina Billiards recently. Did a google search and nothing came up in terms of location (just a few articles). But another old pool hall in Chicago is Marie's Golden Cue. Here's a pic: And a link to more pics on the Facebook Page I go there a good amount because...

    Lambros VS Cognoscenti

    I had a cog and I had a chance to play with a friends' lambros. Personally I like it when i can feel vibration and feedback to my hand. It helps me monitor my shots a little better (speed, control, etc). In this regard, I would say I like the hit of a Cog better. To me, the lambros played...

    Schon R-Series Stitch Ring Shaft For Sale...$50!!!

    I'm not referring to the pilot. (this one is flat faced so that wouldn't be an issue). I'm asking if that was originally a schon shaft, or an aftermarket. Only because a schon shaft will only fit a schon butt. A joss shaft will fit everything. I tried screwing on my friend's runde schon...

    Schon R-Series Stitch Ring Shaft For Sale...$50!!!

    My question is will it fit on other 5/16x14 joints? Or just a schon 5/16x14? I have a joss and I would consider this on that cue, if it fit. I remember schon shafts not working with other 5/16x14 pins.
