Four point, four veneer, with nice inlays. Linen wrap, two shafts - one 3.4oz and one 3.8 oz both roll straight. Butt is 15.6. Wonderful playing cue and a real fine example of an Andy Gilbert. $1600 plus shipping...

Very nice example of Steve's work. Butt is 14.9 oz and both shafts are 3.4 for 18.3 total. One shaft rolls perfectly smoothly and one has a very minor roll off that is barely noticeable. Four sharp points into bird's eye maple. Artfully done inlays. Radial pin, gorgeous lizard wrap. Let me...

With all of the negative threads about cue makers lately, I thought I'd share a good story. One of my teammates has been playing with an old McDermott for over 20 years. He plays well with it but we always made fun of his "crappy" old cue. It really wasn't too bad except for the fact that the...

I stopped by Sunday night to see how Anthony was doing and they are very close to re-opening. The place is BEAUTIFUL! There will be 9 Diamond 9 footers plus a Diamond Billiard table! Inspection is final hurdle. Assuming it goes well, could be open this weekend. Any MD/DC/NoVA AZBers up for...

Over two years ago I posted a thread entitled My "New" GC1 showing off an old table I bought off a friend of mine to go in the unfinished basement of our vacation cabin/retirement home in PA. (Before shot of table when I brought it in - 1961 GC1) After two+ years of waiting for a mechanic...

That was the right move. It's getting out of hand.

Last night in league play (TAP 8Ball). Shooter attempts a shot with a wheeled attachment on their cue. (shooter plays in a wheelchair) The attachment is an extension/bridge that allows for a longer reach. During the shot attempt, the shooter flubs the shot and misses the cue ball, however...

Just bought the finals for $3.95. What a bargain!!!

A while back someone suggested a solution to help with tight joints, something to put on the shaft screw to help make go on and off easier. I've searched and can't find that post. Can anyone help me with a solution for a cue that is VERY hard to put together and get apart? TIA, MM

have any of the TAP members here seen the letter explaining the new handicap system for TAP. Our LO is new and he hasn't gotten the letter. I'd like to see it before I go to my league on Tuesday. As league director I expect a lot of fuss. MM

For any of you that have played league pool in Northern VA I have sad news to report. Billy Carr passed away suddenly today. Billy was one of the first members of TAP. He played on many teams in different leagues through the last 30-40 years. He was a good man and loved the game of pool. He...
