    Question on tip replacement

    No I thanked the people who gave me their advice without being arrogant asses. It just happens that the majority of them happened to say what I was afraid of. I had no idea whether it was wrong or not. I felt that it was so i came on here and asked. Several people suggested that it was wrong and...

    Question on tip replacement

    I doubt after not going to him for almost 5 yrs ( since me last retip, 4.5 of that not playing at all) that he remembered me and decided to "put it to me". I discussed with him that I had someone else put a new tip on because I had stopped by a couple of times and he was never in. And didn't...

    Question on tip replacement

    So what is your sage advice that you so eroneously suppose that I won't follow? It seems you are in the minority on thinking this cue repair was adequate. How is playing with the cue going to expand the base of the tip? Mushrooming is the compression of the leather and as far as i know the base...

    Question on tip replacement

    sorry i didn't explain that right. The guy that picks up the cues at my local hall is a different guy. A younger up and coming cue builder. I had the last tip put on by him but he didn't have Trinagle tips which I prefer and talked me into a layered tip. I used to for a couple of weeks and just...

    Question on tip replacement

    So I went back to get him to replace it, he told me that it was fine he cut it in so that once I played with it would compress and line up. That sounded completely illogical, that is he is counting on a tip mushrooming to the point of expanding symmetrically a mm or so all the way around. I told...

    Question on tip replacement

    I didn't put his name on the post because i did want to give him the chance to make it right. But I didn't want to go back in and say hey this isn't right and he tell me that it's no big deal and you should never have a problem with it. I just wanted an opinion I was in no way trying to bash him...

    Question on tip replacement

    Ok I just got my tip replaced by a cue maker that has replaced several of my tips in the past with no problems always has done good work in the past. So I didn't even inspect the tip before I left, thought there was no reason to. But when I took it out to start playing with it I noticed that the...

    WTB Rick Howard PJ or Mace J/B

    Ok so I was back home in NW Florida this weekend and a friend had just picked up a Rick Howard from 98 that he wouldn't tell me how he came across it, nor would he sell it to me. Hitting with that cue really got me missing the Mace I had back in 96-97 that i never should have sold. So this...

    I have been looking at GLD Classic Cue Vault, because that's what I used to have. Can get one of those new shipped for about $50 but I would like to get something nicer if it doesn't break the bank. I'd really like to stay under $100 but not sure it's possible. Just hate to put a lot of money...
