Definitely not a Robert Weir cue, Weir cues used a flying W on the forearm for trademarking and were just a production cue made under contract by Adam

The thing is it really doen't matter, if you ask me what I paid for something I'm selling I'll tell you point blank 'It's none of your damned business'. My price is my price and if you don't want to pay that price then don't buy it. For me it's just that simple.

This is Cornbread Red aka Billy Burge and Al Jolson

I'm sorry I missed the post about Sky. But the brackets are nowhere near up to date assuming you canread what it says or see the entire bracket at all.

You know, you have a decent product but the way you handle the bracket chart and updates is pitiful. Who won the midnight madness? And why can't you post a proper bracket chart so the spectators can check to see how players are doing? And before you start, yes I am a subscriber and have been...

I bought a new 69 Chevelle SS 396, buckets and four speed for $2975

Yeah, they don't have a real-life view of the costs of going into business nad the way they describe the operation is like it's a hobby.

The reason you rarely ever see an old timey pool room is because they don't work they go broke. The food and drink is what supports the business. The local room here has 20 tables and is very successful but table rent is less than 15% of the business.

I have a set each of standard Aramith, Brunswick Centennial and Albany Hyatt balls and have played with all. They all react ball to ball the same. In playing at the DCC with the Cyclop balls I found this not to be the case. Afterward, I wondered if it was just me or the balls and contacted...

If I were buying a new diamond table I would tell them to keep the damned balls, they're junk

Those ferrules were called fiber and was made of a blended material of wood pulp and cotton fibers. It made a very sturdy material which could stand up to a lot of abuse but did stain and had a tendency to move. Properly installed they were very serviceable ferrules.

I figured y'all just wanted to go back to college and needed a way to pay tuition, because you know everyone payed their way through college playing pool.

I'm going to be honest with you I don't like Bill Stroud, he's an ass but the truth is you're not likely to a cue that hits and plays much better than his. And the older cues were mostly tastefully done not like the gawdy stuff he turned out later.

Rib, you are correct, Bill was building cues in the 70's and never worked for Tim or was apprenticed by Tim. By the way expect this thread to go away, that's what happened the last time I corrected Nick regarding his rant against Bill.

In the early days of Scruggs Cues Bill and Tim were friends and Bill was a financial partner in Tim's business. At the time they were both making cues, Bill in Jackson TN and Tim in Baltimore. At times Bill would also help Tim in developing new inlay designs and would also do some...

I believe you have this backwards Bill was financially invested in Scruggs Cues and some of their work was done in Bill's shop but Bill didn't receive any return on it.

That's probably where they keep the Pappy Van Winkle

Well it'a got to beat that crap Danny Janes has been turning out for the last 40 years

Nick is the Chuck Norris of gum chewing

About three weeks ago it was smokier outside than in the poolroom. That was when the fires on Signal Mtn and White Oak Mtn were still going.
