I regret to inform the billiard world that today we lost one of greatest cuemakers the world has ever known. Mr. Tad Kohara has passed away. There will never be another cuemaker with his style and execution. He was a great cuemaker and an even greater father, husband and person. He will be...

Many requests to buy the TAD without the Robinson. Please call or text Rick 714-715-8373 to haggle with him. They aren't my cues and I'm just guy that posted the cues on his behalf. :)

Here are 2 gorgeous cues up for sale. This is a package deal! I would consider splitting the pair but I'm gonna want the best of it if you just want to take the Tad. These cues belong to Rick (former owner of Best Billiards) and I'm just helping him post them here. I don't check my PM everyday...

Thanks for your input. I was planning on making one with a concave insert but, to me that defeats the purpose of pressing. If the center is still softer than the edges it will still flatten or mushroom after playing. We are not talking about an item that is going to sell thousands or even...

Good to know because I didn't find anything like it when I searched. But thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the order! It will ship tomorrow.

A lot of people like the way a pressed Elkmaster plays (including Efren) and once pressed they don't flatten or lose shape. But I agree a good layered tip will not need to be pressed and will play good from day 1.

It is smooth and doesn't twist the tip. and there is enough room inside to allow the tip to expand and not get stuck in the press.

Cue-Tools Tip Press is the only press of it's kind! Simple to use...just place any kind of tip into the chamber, screw the press together, apply as much pressure as you like using the torque handles, leave in the press for as little or as long as you like, unscrew the press and remove your...

Regarding the purchase price...if someone wants one I have a brand new one that I got in a trade that I will never use since I have a lathe. First $50 gets it...half of what they sell for online and I'll ship it free. Call Robert 714-290-3130

I was out at the APA Nationals also. I am a former APA League Operator as well. The APA stopped using the Diamond tables when Mark Griffin bought the BCA League as they felt he was now their competitor and didn't want to support his interest in Diamond tables. I'm only a 6 and I played 4 matches...

Thanks again for all of the great reviews.... 7 pages and all positive!! I'm glad everyone likes them!

I have always used Elmers Carpenters wood glue. It does not breakdown with water so if you wet the linen to press it it won't weaken the glue. It also helps seal the wood under the wrap. I use contact cement for stack leather wraps.

Wetting the leather should help it cut cleaner even if you are using the cutting tool on your lathe. Most of the installers here are using a razor blade and cutting the tips flush with the ferrule freehand. I recommend turning your lathe at a fairly slow speed for trimming with a razor (500-600...

Thanks again to everyone for the great reviews! Keep 'em coming!!

I would like to thank Cuejo and Blue Hog Ridr for the sound installation advise. Also check out the installation video on our website www.blackkingtips.com or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl3rQ_hD5Q4 You will be surprised at how easy they trim just using a razor blade if you wet the leather...

Thanks for all of the great reviews... I'm glad so many people like them!

WOW got there in less than a month.... Not bad for US postal service! LOL

Hello Dick, I set you up as a dealer on our website as soon as you registered since you have a website with your cues. I tried to send you email to let you know that you had been approved for dealer pricing but the email to dicky@dickiecues.com gets bounced back as an invalid email address...
