    Ideas that haven't saved pool

    Do you think this forum is a microcosm of pool in general or an exception? If you’re a young millennial or Gen Z’er and you log into this forum how do the think they’d feel seeing 4 out of 5 of the “New Posts” are basically politics. I couldn’t fit it all into one screen grab but how many “new...

    Brothers Billiards, new kind of pool room.

    I’d love to revisit this thread a year from now. Very cool concept. You gotta think outside the box. If you get a strong clientele base right out of the gate it could end up being a strong community.

    1989 Custom Led Zeppelin Cue by Richard Black

    That’s super cool. Really great piece.

    Stolen cues alert! Lafayette LA last Monday night.

    Please post or PM me pictures. I’m in and out of Pawn Shops all over Texas and there’s a ton of stuff that trickles down from LA. I bet I hit 30-40 pawn shops/junk shops a week from South to East Texas and I make a point to look for cues. I wouldn’t be surprised to see stuff from LA makes it...

    Went to a remodeled pool hall today, 13.50 per hour?

    Not a reflection of OPs opinion on his specific experience but just some thoughts. We all see how expensive things are these days. I know basic things like regular grocery items have shot up significantly in price in the last year. It’s crazy expensive to run and maintain a business. Let alone...

    Best cheap scale?

    I got one from Kohl's because there was one right around the corner from my house. Mine was accurate and works fine. https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-3957047/food-network-infographic-kitchen-scale.jsp?prdPV=3

    BUYER BEWARE-CASTLE CUSTOM CUE ON EBAY

    I have a lot of empathy for cue makers selling too early. We have to recoup some of our money to afford more wood and hardware somehow. It’s a tough hobby to grow into let alone turn into a business and profit from. With that said he should have disclosed condition and level of skills and...

    Yahoo.....COVID Vaccinations Are Gaining Steam........Alleluia!

    I don’t have all day but after looking over 200 of your most recent posts this is the first one outside of the NPR and politics. In the last 400 posts this is the only one I could find of yours in the main. So please keep pretending that you care about this forum beyond using it as a platform...

    Yahoo.....COVID Vaccinations Are Gaining Steam........Alleluia!

    This thread is a good example of why this forums participation continues to dwindle. OP makes a generally positive post about getting back to playing pool and it took no time for the political npr shit starters to try and ruin his good mood.

    Brunswick Liberty cues

    I just cut something like this off a cue recently but the cue didn’t have veneers. It was butterfly splice like an old house cue style. The butt was split up pretty good and not salvageable. What are those decals original to?

    Jeanette Lee

    Really sad news. As I understand she’s had a lot of surgeries already. Hopefully they can shrink it enough for them to get it down to an area they can fully remove.

    Why tournament blue?

    To my eyes it shows up on TV better. Contrast with the balls etc

    Unmarked 60" cue weird veneer strip? Handle

    Adhesive spray location, for the cloth.

    Under the rail and on the edge. Cut off on the bottom of the slate. As you described in the first part of your post. For me it makes it easier to stretch when I can tack it down on the top side of the slate. Especially working in corners. I can gather towards the middle of the pocket and press...

    Exclusive Exposure for New Cue Makers

    There’s a lot of content on Instagram. I find it tougher to find things but if you put in the time you’ll stumble across good work there.
