    Although heavily interested in the Mosconi Cup, I can't follow the late matches here in Europe. So I was excited to read the score this morning (2 - 8). But it es also quite exciting to read all the comments here on AZB, although they keep repeating themselves every year (OK - the last seven...

    need a cue maker

    Even in our time of Whattsapp and Internet, I would go to a cue maker that is not too far away from your location. I would go there, have a look at the workshop and at some fine examples of his cue building. I would discuss the pattern with him and then place the order. I would look him straight...

    Cue ID help. Brazilian rosewood?

    My guess would be Brasilian Rosewood. I have some wood sitting in my cellar with exactly that colour and burly look. Some of it even much more with burl. Bought it from a wood wholeseller. Can not be bought any more in Europe. Coco is often more brown-red as that one tends into lilac-red. If...

    Mosconi Cup

    Jay Helfert is right - the Phillipines might be good to hone your skills. Lots of different players, lots of different conditions. And hey - how can a few drunk English people shark you, when you are used to play for money, while chicken are running between your feet and the crowd is literally...

    Domestic Table Culture (Atlanta)

    Going on a business trip in October to Atlanta. The Missus asked me what I am doing in the evening. I told her that I will be exploring the domestic table culture.

    And this is just covering the distances. :) There are more measures in the imperial system with e.g. weight systems. While I was actively boxing in England as a student, I totally lost ground as my opponents were weight in pounds, stones and ounces. ... and the poor Germans like me just had...

    Instroke que case question

    Quite an interesting topic! Your post made me read again through the text of their web page more carefully. The text there indeed does not state, that they are making the cases in Germany. They are just claiming, that they are controlling quality and production by their company in Germany. Now...
