    Samsara Cues

    I used a PJ Samsara for a short time several years ago. Cue was too stiff for me. Plus, one of the shafts warped pretty bad and the second developed a slight warp. Samsara replaced one of them. I didn't want to sell the cue because I didn't want the shafts to go bad and it would come back to me...

    Sneaky Pete Cues by Arnot

    Arnie is one of the most honorable and trustworthy cuemakers on this planet. He is an asset to the cuemaking trade. I know for a fact that he ONLY uses high quality seasoned wood and the very best parts available. Plus, these two cues that he has available are a steal!

    Titlist questions

    Since you already have experience with Jerry Olivier and live so close to him, I'd use him. He has a lot of experience with Titlist conversions... and the ones I saw were beautiful. Plus, he makes some of the best shafts out there, and his finish is flawless.

    Titlist questions

    Slim, you said it well. You owe no one an explanation or apology for what you posted. No matter how some things are expressed, some posters will just never get it. They are always looking for something to wolf about... and they jumped the gun on this one. IMO.

    I hate to be a pain. I'm very interested but I've lost track of which one is available. Let me know which cue/cues are for sale, and your best price, shipped using paypal, or your choice of payment.

    2010 Cue of the Year

    I somewhat agree but I think it's a stretch to say ''hatred'', but the jealousy part is spot on! It has reared it's ugly head on the thread... and that's sad, IMO.

    2010 Cue of the Year

    It's a tie... the Joel Hercek cue and the Searing! But since these are my favorite cuemakers, I guess I'm a little biased.

    Make my own cue case?

    I like box cases, too. Here's the best one I've ever come across. It's the only case I use. You would do well to at least use this one as a model. It's a 2x4 case that holds 1x2 in the lid, making it a lot less bulky than other styles of box cases. http://www.cuesight.com/stx6al.html

    custom cue

    After this long you have every right to name him... here and now. It will not help or hurt your chances of getting the cue you paid for, but it may help others from making a mistake dealing with this guy.

    OCD cue makers!!!

    Dennis Searing simply is a perfectionist. He refuses to compromise even the smallest detail. He takes a lot of pride in what he produces, and figures that EVERYTHING is important when it comes to his trade, cuemaking. He is to be admired, IMO. With his popularity came a long wait to get one of...

    Glasses to contacts (or surgery)

    If you choose to wear glasses, the most important thing is to get a prescription for single lenses and use them for pool only. Explain to the examiner what you want the glasses for and they will find just the right focal point for you, for the table size you most often play on. Just make sure...
