Thanks for the information. Do you know when these cues were made? I was told this one was from the 1980s. Here's mine: It looks like there may be a signature engraved on one of the points. I tried to bring it out with some graphite powder, but wasn't very successful. I think I'll...

I think I now own this cue. Is there anything you can tell me about it? It came with a custom Jill Hawk 2x4 case, and it appears to be signed on one of the points--though it's very hard to tell. The engraving is very tiny and partially worn away. Thanks!

Can you send me some pictures? Thank you.

I'm aware of that. Never hurts to ask.

I found a 10+ year old post from someone selling replacement hardware kits for It's George cases. I messaged the seller directly and I'm waiting for a response, but I'm not too hopeful. They haven't been active since that time. Does anybody know if these hardware kits can still be found...

I'm looking for a nice 1x2 case in the $150-$200 range. Nice, because it's going to be a Christmas present to go along with a cue. Not too nice, because it's for my daughter's boyfriend, and I don't want him to get the impression that I actually like him.

Do you still have this cue? If so, would you ever consider selling it? I recently picked up the Queen cue from this set, and had Roland refinish it. He still had a couple of the small ivory queen inlays, so he made me a set of joint protectors as well.

My experience is that there are very few things in life that you can get REALLY good at on your own, without some form of training. You can certainly get better and learn to compensate for poor form, but that's not a substitute for directed training.

While I'm not in the market to spend $500 on this, I'd really like to try building one of these for myself. Would you be willing to measure and share the dimensions? Length and diameter of the tube and length, diameter, and spacing of the pins. Thank you.

Still available?

The buttons at either end could be done with two remotes and a little bit of Velcro--which also addresses the question of where to put the remote(s) when I'm not using the table. Voice commands sounds intriguing, and I think I'll do a little investigation to see what it would take to add it.

So far it's not an issue. The table moves from one end to the other in not much more time than it takes to chalk my cue and walk to the other end of the table. I suppose there could come a time when it disrupts my rhythm, I still have some more testing to do to see if I can reasonably speed up...

In my next iteration, I'm hoping to eliminate the noise completely by replacing the stepper motor with a servo motor. It's a pretty expensive upgrade, so I wanted to make sure I could get it working with a stepper motor first.

I already have the 8-foot table, and now that the motorized rail system is finished, I have enough room all the way around to play with full-sized cues.

I'm incredibly excited to start playing. I've blocked out my weekend to finish the rails and just play. My next project is a display case for my modest but growing cue collection.

Thanks. Major props to Scott for blazing the trail I followed.

It's an 8-foot table.

I have finally completed my "Pool table on rails" build. I still need to recover the rails with the new felt, but I'm very happy with the results. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UjZhPdFp9RmUN-pjzvTsCINNXmrx5A26/view?usp=sharing

Very impressive work!

I just measured them. The joint diameter on the butt is 21.80mm, but the joint diameter on the shaft is only 21.49mm. I can definitely feel the difference in size.
