i'm interested in getting some design ideas and ballpark quotes/timelines on a custom cue. as for details i'm not sure yet, i want it to be related to/inspired by firefighting. i saw the jesse james jacoby with the white pistols and thought something like that but with an axe or maltese cross...

i know this is a stupid question to some but dont have any experience in the area so... i have been wanting to play for some money, not much but a little to keep it interested but most of the players i play with are better than i am so how should i ask for a handicap, in other words what are the...

i'm reading "banking with the beard" and i'm having some success but i have a question. i cant figure out why sometimes we need to sight through the diamonds and sometimes opposite the diamonds. i am not seeing a pattern, is there any way other than just remembering which to do when? thanks...

just wanted to show a little love on here. i know its been said before but i think its worth noting, KV is an honest and helpful guy. he put a new tip on and fixed a ding for free. also i was impressed by the fact that a rather big name on AZ took time and talked to me several times even on a...
