Is the Frey still for sale?

What brand of stain can you use on a maple forarm? I have tied different stains and I can not get the stain to penetrate the wood. The cue has been sanded down to bare wood but won’t take stain at all?

I’ve been wearing glasses for years and I use an older metal frame and bend/shape them so that when I bend down over a shot, I don’t see the top part of the rim and it works well.

I have several hard cases for them.

I have a expensive TS custom designed by me and I can’t explain why but I would rather my daily shooter be a SP. I just prefer a SP over customs. It might have something to do with not having to worry about it getting beat up in the heat of battle over time.

Haven’t called him. I thought that I could find out from the group here.9

Where is this tournament at, name of place?

Yeah I read that, but it doesn’t give any real dates when Bob started or left Tim’s shop. So the question is.....was Bob working in Tim’s shop in 1986-1989 if so, did he work on bar cues while there? I started going to Tim’s shop in the early 90’s and only dealt with Tim and Mike and didn’t see...

So I have an older Scruggs Sneaky Pete and trying to see if there is a chance that Bob made/worked on this cue back then, and did Bob work on SP in TIm’s Shop? Can anyone tell me the years Bob worked at Tim shop. Thanks!

Good eye. That is a one of a kind made in 1991. Made back when Tim and Mike were working at the meat locker shop. Memories...of the good old days!

Thanks everyone for your comments.

Thanks everybody for replying. Not sure what this thing is. I do know that the diameter of the butt end is really big compared to today standards.

I have no idea who made the cues. I only know that my father bought it in Washington DC in the late 60’s.

Not sure. Someone said black palm and it could be. I bought this cue during a tournament in PA. It was in a display case so the sale person didn’t know much about it. I will say this, it’s not the most attractive wood but man does it hit well.

Actually I do love to buy SP cues, I don’t know why. I had more but sold some along the way. All of the SP’ s were bought in the early to mid 90’s.

All cues are Tim Scruggs except the 2 bar cues on the right #11 & 12, they are Bob Frey bought new in 96’. One has a 5/16 pin the other 3/8. All the cues were bought new except # 5 which Tim helped me buy from a guy who bought it new from Tim in 87’.

I finally got time to take a picture of all my cues I currently have. Hopefully this picture makes it to this thread ok.

I know mike and Tim didn’t actually make them but since it does has the TS logo it is considered “him making it”. So just wondering when his shop started making them and who has some of those older ones around. Anybody want to share pictures?

Who has old pre1990 Scruggs Sneaky Petes out there? Would like to know how far back did he start making them and are there any pictures of some of the older 80’s models out there? Thanks!

It will be Interesting to see if anyone has this stuff. I have catalogs, price list, brochures, a tee shirt, and found 2 hats I don’t even remember having. I was fortunate to live in Maryland and could visit his shop when needed. I held on to these things as a keep sake thinking maybe one day...
