Are you serious??????? Making ignorant remarks like that, you really should consider a career in politics.

Thanks Greg, I appreciate that. I plan on doing a lot of fishing now. My goal is to become a Master Baiter. :)

I guess each person has to make their own decision as to where to draw the line. I've heard the expression "grey area" several times. I was Office Depot the other day and decided to look for a pen that would draw a "grey" line. Couldn't find one :) To me, the word "intent" comes to mind on...

My ole buddy Simon :thumbup: Thanks for the well wishes. Yep, finally made the decision and not regretting it at all. Mar 31st was the day but technically today is my last day. All the machinery leaves tomorrow and the shop is being converted into a sun room. I'll drop you an email toshare...

:) I just figured out who your are. Hey there Doug. Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks for the kind words Chris. I'll let you in on a little secret though...You did all the hard work...I had the fun part :) And yet another secret. One of the key ingredients to a successful project is that the cue maker be working for a customer that knows what he wants and is able to...

Thanks for the plug but, I've never made a "clone" of another cue makers work and would never even consider doing so...Not even my own Fathers work. Copy, clone, tribute, all the same to me. I put them all in the same category of being wrong to do and disrespectful.

Yep, I remember. That's why I only put one HUGE window in your 4 point cue :):)

Many Designers are at a disadvantage in that they don't have the benefit of actually having used the manufacturing tools (cutting tools in the case of cues) and have little to no idea what the tool can or cannot do. No reflection on the posters showing their drawings as they're actually very...

Your Grandfather was a talented man!! Yes I'm familiar with Glasply Boats.

Looks good in theory. A drawing is approximately 5% of the project. The killer part is the other 95%...Making the drawing work. An old saying comes to mind; "You can draw a monkey, but can you build one?"

Thank you Chris. There's another cue in my final batch finishing soon that will be just as nice or nicer :wink:

Of all the cues I've built that is one I would LOVE to have back. You have a PM.

Hey Steve, Dontcha be startin any rumors now, ya hear? I've worked very hard at learning to be a grumpy ole grouch :)

I'm speechless!!!

:D :D Could be. I heard Bubba broke up with Big John and is now looking for a new steady. Isn't love grand :)

It'll catch up with him sooner or later. Then he'll have a new place to live plus three hots & a cot! Maybe a new girl friend too :D

If anyone has they would be rather foolish to admit it in a public forum wouldn't they?

Just for the record, I don't feel "ripped off" at all. If I had made my 1995 photo public and someone had copied the part then I might feel differently, but I doubt it. If I held a patent on it and it had been copied, I woulda been all over that person like white on rice. Fact is, I shared the...

TulipWood isn't always Red/Orange but the grain structure is pretty consistent with what is usually shown. I have some that's more akin to the color of Walnut. It's not seen very often.
