Nice to see you, Mickey.

Two words: sandbagging and *****ing.

You dug in and pulled as hard as you could, Mickey. For what it's worth you have my respect. I hope you enjoy the next chapter of your life. Danny

It is still available.

The motor is varaible speed but not reversible that I can tell. This also has a larger chuck that will accomodate cue butts.

Unique Products Cue Companion lathe. I believe this is package 3 as it has both the small and large chucks. Works great. Asking $1200. Would appreciate PMs. Pretty sure it's all here, but if there is a particular accesory that you are interested in I will verify, just let me know.

Really sorry to hear it. My business is always soft at this time of year, but this is as bad as I have ever seen. Just limping along.

I just heard about this stuff and it's already half gone. Crap.

I would say get what is most readily available and get used to what it does. We don't use clay balls any more.

If I had that much money I'd retire. Sure wouldn't want to screw with running a poolhall of sorts.

Pool halls and bars are private property. We're not talking about a school or the freakin' post office here. You really don't have a dog in the fight unless you have $$ at stake in the business.

I would love to have one of Bill Webb's butterfly cues. They are second to none.

I don't give a damn how well the Earl/Shane match went. I'm not buying any 10' tables!:wink: Danny

These numbers make my stomach turn. Of course, I'm in a small town. you might consider starting smaller. You climb a tree from the ground up. Best of luck. Danny

Does anyone know what kind of tables and lights they had in Ames Billiards in NYC? Thanks in advance.

I think West Point makes a good point about Asia providing a viable model. It will help that nearly all of the equipment manufacturers are there. About pool never paying off, that may be true to a large extent. But that is what it will take to make quality people dedicate their lifes'...

I agree, Gunzby. The sport of pool is outstanding. It allows people of different ages, sexes, backgrounds, etc. to compete against one another. It is also a great game for socialization. However, the BUSINESS of pool will usually kick you somewhere below the waste if you try to make a living...

My grandpa owned a pool hall. I got beat on by a bunch of guys that were 40-50 years my senior. I also spent A-LOT of time on the bench watching.

A new Bill Webb cue!! Osage orange forearm with snakewood points. Ivory joint and rings. Bad-ass!:smile:

Very nice photo work as well. Capturing the details on a stick like a Webb is an art in itself.
