Why do custom cues hit better than production cues? More specifically, why does your custom cue hit better than my Joss productin cue?

I recently saw a Ted Harris cue. The lazer points and five layers of extra-thin veneers, were eloquent and perfectly crafted. The best I've ever seen. But that artistry was ruined, in my opinion, by the blinged out butt with eight oversized blocks of ivory. Isn't there an international trade...

Hi JAM. Didn't you once tell me that there was nothing wrong with Tom Tom's libido?

Tom Wirth: my friend. I took a vacation from my retirement to visit my friend Tom in Delray Beach, Florida. Back home in Maryland, we call him Tom Tom. A cold front moved in and the temperature was only 75° with a light breeze. We did a lot of pool playing, gambling at Texas Hold'em, fine...

I would like to read a book on the history and evolution of cue making. I would pay good money.

Thanks all for this valuable dialogue. Even the funny stuff. I didn't know there was a Ask the Cuemaker Forum. I'm glad I posted this on the main forum. The cuemakers may have a bias on "The modern-age, whitish, kiln-dried stuff vs the (expensive) genuine old-growth (that just may not move...

Two of three sports bars have closed in the Silver Spring Maryland area. There are a lot of hungry league players without a place to play.

I used to have a very good pool cue. After 20 years, I found that I could no longer get action on the cue ball. The diagnosis was a warped shaft. I sold the cue for a very large profit after subtracting $500. I recently bought a high-end production cue from an online distributor. I find...

Beautiful cue cabinet. Should be placed on inside wall and each cue should be played with four hours every week. It's good that you keep them verticle and not kept in the case.

Joss $48500

I just bought a new cue with a 9-10 inch pro taper. I thought a pro taper should be about 12 inches. Any opinions on this?

I just received my Jos12 model... or is it? This came with an additional six dark brown windows. What are the dark brown windows made of? Is it still the Jos12 model? This is the internet picture of the Jos12

I just got My Jos12 model in the mail, or so I thought. The cue came with additional detail... six dark wood windows between the lacewood windows and the diamonds. Does anybody know the correct model for this cue. Here is a picture. Also, I was thinking about have it retapered to a 12" pro...

Now you tell me. I hated that cue anyway. It was a $50 Palmer I bought on ebay, then had $100 worth of custom work to the shaft. I had a Black Boar. I sold it after twenty years just as the shafts started to warp. I just ordered a Joss cue and a GTF Designer Prestigue Case. Prestige Cases...

I keep my case on the back seat of my car parked indoors where the temperature is always between 40-75 degrees. I think if I had a cue case that was adertised as "air tight" or "vacuum sealed", then that would solve the humidity issue. It should then be safe, I think, to continue to store my...

I have an indoor garage parking space. The temperature is always moderate, but I can't say that for the humidity.

My cue shafts keep warping.:confused: I use a twenty year old leather tooled cue case. I think I need one of those vacuum sealed cue cases. Any suggestions?
