    One-piece cue + other advice

    one piece I have had a great time playing with a one piece fiberglass cue similar to a cuetec. It is called an eliminator, and retails for under $50. I put a moori tip on it and use it when I go to pool tournaments and league also. Its a nice change to not have to worry about anyone stealing...

    Just wasted $60

    Unforseen problems I'm guessing that they were allowing a little "wiggle room" in case they popped one of the slate seams. if that had happened and they had to take one half of the rails off, take out the staples and peel the cloth back to relevel the slate seam, and then put the table back...

    Tournaments dwindling at the hand of one

    Ban the vultures I agree the tournament director should ban A players, the bar will end up being the big loser out of all this. They want casual eaters and drinkers to be at their establishment for 3-5 hours on these nights. there is a lot of revenue generated by 12-30 people hanging out for...

    Changing my leather wrap. Need help

    The nice part about the cuemakers at the tournament is that your cue never leaves your sight if your that worried about it. Obviously, sending it to a specialist would be my choice also. JMO

    Changing my leather wrap. Need help

    What kind of leather? This question would probably be best answered in the cuemaker forum, but what kind of leather is the wrap? full leather or stack leather? I would have the cuemaker change the leather to the one that you want? What type of cue?

    Anyone had a cue made for them?

    maybe Start with lower end? I like the idea of starting with a lower end cue from a custom cue maker. That way you can still pick your preferences when it comes to joint type, tip size, shaft preference, wrap or wrapless, and not be out a ton of $$$. I have done this with several cue makers...

    I'm glad WalMart is selling Schon cues!!!!!! READ B4 You Vote

    Schon quality I think that there is a possibility of a future problem here. from what I understand about walmart, in a couple of years THEY will approach Schon to make their product sell at a cheaper pricepoint, thus more sales, volume etc.. the real bummer is when schon, or any company for...
