They were amazing tips. I miss them. I love when I walk into a shop and someone tells me they have Moori tips. Uh yeah... no you dont.

Beautiful!

Starting a Titlst conversion soon. It has a much larger handle diameter than today's cues. I have to assume that is just the way it is. Looking at other conversions they have the sticker intact which tells me they are not cutting down the diameter of the handle. What are you all doing?

That sounds like it would work. Wonder if petroleum jelly would do the same. (Waiting for the jokes)

Coating my current work and it has a ss joint. Using CA. What is the best way to keep the CA off the SS collar. Tried blue masking tape but now have CA build up on the tape on the joint. Thank you in advance

But it's soooooooo good!

Wow... nice work!

Sanded off what was left. No stain

Redoing a Huebler that had an A joint problem. Pretty much fixed that. Now doing the clear coat. I put the epoxy on it and about fell over.. what type of wood is this? (I hope it pops like this after the final coat of CA)

Bad thing is... I am 6ft 3 and already feel like I am in a half squat when I play... if I crouch any more I will need a chair :P

BHE = back hand english - used to counteract the affects of deflection imposed on a cueball when hitting it off center. Can't use bhe when using a low deflection shaft.

Getting back into playing again. Been out of it for a while. I am now 30 lbs heavier than I was, have a belly and not able to get down on shots like I used to. I know losing weight is a start but what else can I do to allow me to bend my neck far enough to look down a cue? I have tried...

Been looking at carbon fiber shafts and have a dilemma. I like the convenience of using BHE. Aim swivel shoot. I have a 314 and put a kamui ss on it to allow me to play BHE with it. I have got so used to playing with BHE that low deflection aiming is actually more difficult for me now. Did I...

Been getting back into playing. Started with the L, Drawline and climbing the ladder. These are all fine but I find playing the ghost has elevated my game the most. Add in if I miss I spot the shot with paper aholes and practice it till I make it 10 times in a row. I really miss the days I...

I mostly shoot by feel now. Bob J. (good to see ya) and I discussed the CTE, stick aiming, lights... etc, back when Hal Houle was a traveling tutor giving his knowledge for free. We pretty much guesstimate that a lot of these systems forces the subconscious to aim instead of the side of your...

Been watching aiming systems on YouTube. I find it funny that most of them are shown shooting in an object ball a diamond away from the pocket. Wish they would use the system on half table shots... then we can see if it really works.

I own the book... was just trying to find out what experienced cue makers found to work for them. Apologies for asking a noob question.

I was afraid to get an answer like this :) So let me ask a little differently. What is a good starting diameter? They are 2 inches now. After I assemble everything and take my first pass what size is desirable?

I have some 2 inch rounds I turned around a year and a half ago. It is time to put them together for the handle of my cue. I will be using a tenon with 3/8 all thread to pull it together. Once I do... what is a general rule of thumb for turning diameters? What minumum diameter should my first...

Just happened to hop on here looking for some info. Because I just stopped by I figured I would wave a hand to some old friends. Haven't played in while but that will soon change as they are building a new hall around the corner from where I live. For those that remember me would love a "Hey...
