I walked over to get a beer the other day at Rack Daddy's and my Magic Chalk cube "disappeared." I was so irritated that I had five more beers! 🤣 #goodchalkisn'tsafe

Get a Brunswick Centennial and your wife won't ever give you grief because you'll have a stylish table!

I've never seen a cue with a longer joint collar/piece, but could you make a longer ivory joint? Maybe sleeve it over a small maple piece you attach to bring it back to 29"? Or just have a longer ivory joint? Interesting project!

Pete Sr. could be curt and require specific details, but plenty of good artists/craftsman have far greater faults. He also handled hundreds of inquiries a month and developed an approach that ensured he could accurately price a cue and ensure customers were on the same page. I was initially put...

Smart decision. Try a Hoppe and take the bolt out, which creates some nice resonance. Traditional ones are nice too, but the Hoppes hit really nice.

I was surprised too and disappointed initially, but the quality is amazing and you'll have the best custom cue experience from a legendary maker. It's worth doing if you plan to hang onto your cue for awhile.

I agree with this, but also agree that Tascs are amazing cues and they are very easy to work with, which is rare for a top tier builder. You're $5k cue is likely closer to $3.5k on the secondary market, if you choose to sell it. I had a "60 hoppe that played beautifully and would have ordered a...

I just tried one of Vince's shafts too and it was excellent! The first solid hitting carbonish shaft I've come across. The shaft had very low deflection and was beautiful. I second Ajay''s recommendation to try out one of Vince's shafts.

I have what I believe is his largest hickory Burl and blackwood cue with oosik joint and buttcap. Price is $5k shipped to pry it from my hands. If the price is acceptable, send me a PM with your cell and I'll send you pics. Thanks, -Ryan

They are awesome! I had them refinish a Palmer model J and it came out amazing. They even cleaned the wrap and brought it back to life!

His last Snakewood cue plays great, that's for sure! I sometimes wonder how many battles he won and what money he earned with it. Maybe a cue like this is fancier than what a typical hustler would use, but surely by the time a hustler earns a well enough reputation, there's little need to fly...

Has this cue sold? If not, please PM me.

All I've had some fun tinkering with Mike Bender over the past couple of years. Mike took on several projects for me: 1. authenticating a DPK I bought on here from Troy years ago, 2. building a cue David started but never finished when Omega closed, and 3. refinishing one of his cues, which is a...

Testing pictures

I have a Palmer J. I couldn't tell you which catalog it might be, but I always loved the look of this cue. Let me know if you're interested and I can send pics and specs.

I have this cue now and had it refinished. If someone is interested, PM me. Thanks, Ryan

Ok, I'll ask him. I have one of his past personal cues and I'm curious of his estimated value.

Well when United has developed AI to reject 90% of claims, it makes clear the industry's standard approach. I've handled a number of bad faith lawsuits where the percentage of claims denied is revealed, and it's shocking, depressing and typical....

Thanks for everyone's comments and suggestions. I really appreciate the feedback, even yours MS boy. The resources and experience here are great, even if they come with an ocassional salty response.

Ha ha, hysterical! 😂
