I am looking for a lathe to repair cues, ie, tips/ferrules, facing, joint pins. Live in Indiana so prefer close to the state if possible, Larry Smith.

I have Richard's book and am inquiring about any information that has been accumulated on his insights?

I just purchase a cue from a friend and the inkling is that it is a Balabushka, remember the word, "inkling". I've had three Balabushka's in my hand, two were purchased from George at his shop and one was purchased in Kokomo, IN, years ago. The cue is as solid and straight as you'd want, it...

Just looking for any info on a cuemaker named Keaggy? Have one, know he made cues out in the west, I think Arizona.

Occasionally I will use the table cloth to ascertain the Cue Ball line to a pocket or a rail, anyone out there know about any links, books or videos related? Thanks in advance, I know there's a big crowd out there who has the info...........Larry

Anybody out there with knowledge about a site or book that has good visuals on identifying woods turned down for Cues. Sometimes I get cues with a wood that leaves me baffled as to what it is, so I just call it beautiful but would like to know what beautiful is.............Larry
