No need to bring in back up clowns, you're doing just fine!

Extremely unappealing, not plesasant to look at and so forth. Didn't the Sears Minnesota Fats cues have wraps like that?

Bruce-you tell a lot of folks that you won't GAMBLE for any amount under any circumstances !! Is that not now the case and you're out looking for lunch money?? Try the Boys Club in your area.

Very well said, a good rep headed your way sir! I can't help but remember a bunch of the Wheat Cues posts as almost sounding like sermons from the mount and then wondering "who the heck is that guy?" Barenbrugges cues and how highly they are sought after speaks for themselves.

TIPS is a very interesting subject to an equipment freak such as myself. I've always thought thought it would be advantageous to use a different shaft/tip combo for different pool games. Something like perhaps using a soft tip and a more flexible shaft for One Pocket and maybe a stiffer...

Don't Bring A Cuestick To A Knife Fight After reading the banter and repartee between Wheat and Barenbrugge, heres a couple of comments and seriously astute observations:eek: 1) Wheat has lots of info on cuemaking and loves to share it. Some of it probably correct and some of it is...

I dream you had your own forum so you could start ding a ling threads like this somewhere else.

You get an "A" for being persistent.

I'd buy you your own forum. You could have unlimited identities and post and answer your questions to your hearts content.

Not being familiar with your cues, how would you characterize your "unique contribution to cuemaking." ?

Ethanol is excellent for burnishing tips and is also very good for putting a final slick and shine on the shaft. As a fuel, it sucks. The lower cost is more than offset by the decreased mileage.

PoolSleuth- Fall off your hobby horse and hit your head? Reach for the sprouts but grab the loco weed by mistake? You can blame the evironmentalists to some degree, but blame the current crop of politicians and lobbyists in Washington even more. If the recessions deepens, look for certain...

Value on W1P & SMS The Eddie Robins books come up for sale here and on the One Pocket forum several times througout the year. Do a search at the 1P forum and you'll get an idea of what the books sell for.

Nice looking traditional cue.

That's for sure. If Frost gives Chohan weight, I'm going to find as much cash as I can and watch Tony make me some $$$. Chohan wins even up in short sessions. In longer sessions, Chohan wins going away.

Lots of technical and technique reasons for a miscue but tension (choking) can't be discounted as a big possibility. Tension tends to make a person hurry and not set up correctly or hurry their stroke and jab at the cueball thus the chances for a miscue dramatically increases. The more...

Thank you Dick. Thats the place of my fathers misspent youth or so he says:) .

Tap, tap, tap to Brian. The market sets the price, end of story. Fair is in the eyes of the beholder. If the cuebuilder supports the list price the dealer, which bought at a discount, can make a buck. With so many new/second tier/unknown cuebuilders building good looking, nice hitting cues...

As nutso as it could be, it seems like seen I've another Bender that had the same joint set up. It'll be interesting to see what Mike Bender has to say. That is a very nice looking cue.

The 1P books you have are available in various editions from a couple of different sources with prices all over the board. I have a couple of sets and am very aware of what they are worth. If an individual is a collector, he or she may be willing to pay more than a student of 1P that is just...
