    Do Pawnshops Know who Made the Cues?

    For the most part I agree with most other posters when it comes to production cues in their shop.....bought cheap and sold with at least a 50% mark up. With customs it is a different matter. If a man brings in his custom cue he is looking to get the best possible price/loan for it. He will go...

    Does anyone make a bad cue???

    I whittle cues out of old broomsticks. I can't do inlays yet so I just do a little decorative work with an old soldering iron. My wraps are made of whatever animal I find dead on the road.....squirrel is the most predominate with the occasional coon or possum skin used on custom orders. My cues...

    2 more stolen cues recovered! Tank you God for stipid criminals

    The smart thing to do if you want to get at least $2000 is to sell them on ebay or in some pool hall for a little less than they're worth so the thought of them being stolen doesn't cross someones mind but the deal is good enough not to pass up. Jaden No This is not the "smart" thing to...

    Pigskin for tips.....

    Whatever you do ......be sure to avoid " Chrome Tanned " leather. My advice would be to use vegetable tanned or perhaps latigo.... although the latter may prove unsuitable due to softness. I also do not know if leather other than cattle hide is tanned using the latigo process......Dan

    Anvil, Orange Crusher & Grim Reaper

    Question for ya Mike. I currently own a J&J jump break. I use the OB-2 shaft on my playing cue. The J&J feels too fat when I am breaking. Do your cues have a pro taper and can I get a shaft with a 12mm tip size??

    How to improve pool

    What little I know of commercial making usually involves the ad agency contacting a modeling agency and previewing portfolios, both still shots and video. And then making a selection for a "cattle call" . Then a top few are chosen for a screen test, which is then shown to a target audience...

    How to improve pool

    Great ideas Neil. While not wanting to play devils advocate here, I do see some major bumps in the road. First and foremost is convincing any sponsor with money enough to afford TV commercial time, that a pool player vs any entertainment celebrity, is appealing enough to the masses. Other than...

    Need some info please

    I know we have at least one member, perhaps several, that make cue cases. I'm looking for the guy that uses tubes in his and says he can jump up and down without causing damage to the cues inside. Any case makers please contact me via PM or use this thread to pitch your wares to me. Cost is not...

    How long does your Cue tip last?

    I get about a year out of kamui med's . I also bought the Kamui Gator Grip and can't say enough good things about it. Yes I know fine grain sandpaper would prob give the same results but I really like this tool, and it really does remove a bare minimum of material.
