    An Obsession

    I do own and appreciate true good custom cues. This is a different thing. A number of years ago I was researching Steve Mizerak which led to researching some of his business dealings and the "Dove" cue line he had. That led to researching Cobra cues and KaoKao. I had bought a few example...

    McDermott E-H1, E-H2, and E-H3

    Nothing high end or custom, but I think it's nice to have these three in such nice condition. You can see from the bumper and logo that the E-H2 is a later model, it also does not have the tulipwood joint ring of the earlier models, and it has a linen wrap. The E-H3 happens to have some really...

    Scam Web Site?

    I ran across this site. Check out the prices, insanely low. I was searching for info on a cue that sells in the $700 range, and they have it listed for $148. https://www.procuegear.com/ The address is a house in Texas.

    Finish Damage Question

    So I picked up a nice old Schmelke 2x2 box case in great condition. It was a Dufferin cue for sale, but the case was probably worth more than the cue, so I grabbed it and ended up with the cue too. It is a Dufferin cue, and the finish is cracking all over the butt. I can grab pics tomorrow if...

    Looking for Ebony into BEM Cue

    As the title says. Jet black genuine ebony into BEM. No veneers. Simple cue. Custom or production. Wrap or no wrap. Full splice or short splice. EDIT: Thank you for responses, I am avoiding ivory because of the legal issues. Prefer wrap to be black linen or black leather. Prefer plain...

    Cue ID

    UPDATE 9-21-2025: I was working on a deal to purchase this cue with others. It turns out the cues may not have been owned by the person I was dealing with. The cues were not theirs to sell. No, not stolen really. I won't get into details as it is someone's personal issue. I will leave...

    Buying Unknown Cues- An Example

    Unknown or unidentified or unmarked cues can be a matter of controversy when posting and asking about them. If you think it's stupid or it pisses you off, you might find a more interesting thread to post in elsewhere. Up to you. Have you ever "taken a chance" on a cue? I mean, without asking...

    Help me decide the wrap!

    Help me decide the wrap! Leave it as is, or do it in black? (EDIT 8-28-2025: The results of this adventure are posted here- LINK ) I don't know how to do a poll, so just respond in the linked thread. I can leave the wrap as it is, or do it in black. If you want to know what this is all...

    Russ Espiritu Cues

    Do you have any Russ Espiritu cues to show off? I have one that's in need of a refinish. It believe it went through hurricane Catrina because I grabbed it cheap from that region after the storm. As you can see the signature date is 4-92, so it's got some age. The wrap is trashed. The cue is...

    Ebony and Maple, No Veneers

    I posted pics recently of my ebony Dufferin cues. After mulling it over, I thought to grab some group pictures of the Dufferin cues along with a couple Mali cues that are also ebony and maple. Curious to see what anybody else has in just ebony/maple spliced cues, no veneers. Please post pics...

    Real Road Player Sponsored by USPS!

    So I have a cue being shipped from Georgia by USPS to me in Florida. The cue is currently in Chicago. I should have got on my Harley and went to pick it up. The cue is on the road without me. Must be a great player.

    Do you want to see some beautiful cues?

    Since my return I have noticed the Cue & Case Gallery is a bit quiet compared to what it used to be. I have made some comments, made some posts, and bumped some old cool threads. Frankly, it is slow. Got a cue to show off? Put it in the gallery. New, old, custom, production, it does not...

    Early Adam Cue Question

    EDIT 7-3-2025: The solution to this matter is below in post #15 Some years ago I bought an Adam Rambow cue, R/A-7B (Rambow Leather). I got two shafts with it, then put it away. Both shafts fit the butt perfectly. As I was going through my collection recently I came across it. It caught...

    Fellini Style Lid Latch Part

    Help me fix my case! I have a case that is nice, but some knucklehead cut the hooks off the lid part, I guess to get it open. It's not a Fellini case, but has the same lock. I do have a couple complete lock kits but prefer not to break one up for the part. If you have a case that's trashed...
