Hello all. For your consideration is my Schon SP1106 playing cue with Predator shafts. It's one of the only recent Schons that I've seen that has sharp points. Ebony forearm with six red points and ivory diamonds within each point. Stitched silver rings. Matching black and red stack leather wrap...

For sale are a couple of Predator cues. I am listing these for a friend, but these cues are in my possession. I have inspected them and will describe them as accurately as possible. Prices are firm with maybe a little wiggle room if both are purchased together and include all fees and shipping...

Hello all. Does anyone have any shaft sized rings they can sell me, say two of them, in the style of the pic below? It doesn't have to be exactly like the one in the pic, something close would suffice. Thanks.

Anyone have an extra one lying around that you could part with? I can get one from my regular distributor but I don't see it getting a lot of future use so I thought I'd check here first for a better deal. If you have one available please text me at 630-546-0966, or e-mail to...

I have for sale a McDermott D-15. According to McDermott's web site, these cues were built between 1984 and 1990. This particular cue, again according to their web site, is currently valued at $635 in 98% condition (http://mcdermottcue.com/timecapsuled.php). For an almost 30 year old cue, this...

Up for sale I have two original first generation Predator Z shafts, both are piloted 5/16-14 joints with the black joint collar with silver ring. Shaft 1: Like new. I bought this shaft new and it has sat in my case as a back up to my playing shaft. Very little play on this shaft. This shaft is...

Had this happen to me the other night at the pool hall. I was playing some 9-ball with my buddy while some of our other friends were watching. He scratches on his break. I take bih and start my run. After each ball I pocket, he's laughing. By the 3rd or 4th ball pocketed, everyone's laughing. At...

I was watching a match the other day and Efren got a little out of line, as below. Due to impeding balls around the table, going 3-4 rails around for position was not an option. It was a ring 10 ball game so safties were not allowed either and he had to go for the shot. Billy Incardona said the...

I've been beating the 8 ball ghost lately (in rotation, not the game of 8 ball) and have recently been told by a friend and one of the best players I know that I've been doing it wrong. I rack 8 balls, break, and take bih. My friend tells me that I should be racking 9 balls and I win if I...

Anyone have any? I'm looking for around a dozen or so in different colors if available. I've searched and searched and can't find any. Please let me know. Thanks.

If this is inappropriate, I apologize. In 3 weeks we are starting the Shooters 8 Ball League in Chicago. It is a money league with decent payout, no handicaps, no sandbagging, all out "go for the win!" My team shoots out of Cue-Phoria Pool Hall in River Grove and we took 3rd place last year out...

I've been learning the game of one pocket, playing a very good player on a nine foot Diamond at the pool hall. The only break he and I use is to clip the head ball, glance off the second ball, with inside english. Works well enough and is what I've seen most, if not all, the top players use. I...

I'm in the market for a machinist level but don't know much about them. I did an ebay search and came across this: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-MASTER-PRECISION-MACHINE-LEVEL-0002-10_W0QQitemZ150131271961QQihZ005QQcategoryZ104241QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem Anyone know anything about this one? If not...

I tried to search for help with this but to not avail. I have a CL Bailey table with 1 inch slate that I am pretty happy with for now, until I break the bank and go for my Diamond Smart Table :D . Anyway, the slate is directly on the frame of the table with no wood backing and the cloth is glued...

I bought these two maintenance pins as part of a set and have no need for them. They are 5/16-18 & 3/8-10. Here is part of the description for the auction, with permission from the seller champ***: They are made out of Stainless steel with a 3/8 shank. These pins are 100% concentric. Precision...

I just wanted to let you all know what a great experience I had with Jim Sickles of Sickles Custom Cues. I was contemplating having leather wraps put on two of my Schons. Jim PM'd me and offered a wonderful price. I shipped him my two cues last Thursday. Jim got the cues on Friday and...

The game is eight ball, assuming BCA rules, and regarding the first shot after the break. Specifically, if you use a solid to pocket a stripe (or vice versa) in a combo, then you call the stripe and have designated your group, right? Now, if the solid goes in also, you're still stripes, since...

I spoke with a cuemaker the other day about rewrapping a couple of my cues with leather (which currently have Irish linen). He said it could be done but there could be a problem with the depth as Irish linen is THICKER than leather. Is this true? I would think leather would be thicker than the...

If you have two shafts for the same cue, do you rotate their use or keep one as a spare, assuming you're not saving one for resale or collectability? I always keep one in my case as a spare but I got to thinking recently, should I be rotating them to distribute wear and tear on the shaft and...
