I also stumbled into things like "foam formed" or "poured rubber". Which is better? As I understand it, that refers to what the case itself is made of, underneath the leather right?

I'm not entirely sure to be honest. I haven't had a lot of time to inspect it, but its just cloth over some solid material at the top, with the holes for the butt/shaft. They don't run all the way down and the scratches are only on the end with the cloth, where the opening is. It's something...

http://www.amazon.com/Elite-2-Butt-4-Shaft-Prime-Leather/dp/B00CZAAVM0 Seems like an awesome case to me, little pricey but like the look of it.

I looked at these cases and really liked what I saw. It wasn't the cheap built case I have but the action cases were not a whole lot more expensive. Debating two 1x1's vs. a 2x2 (me and my girlfriend both have a cue. She never plays without me but I'm not sold on the whole storing them...

I've gotten a couple recommendations from the forum for JB, also one for a "poolgods" case? Never heard of em, but the case was the same price as one from pooldawg which from the sounds of it isn't much better than my current case; the link is earlier in this thread. It's a viking, so it has...

I think macguy is over reacting, and pushing your opinion (no its not fact) so hard while repeating yourself makes it look like an awful weak argument. If I had a child in that situation you bet your ass I'd be at that persons house. And you can also bet it would be later that night. Why...

And on a slightly off note, any ideas on maybe buffing those scratches out? Is this something Q-wiz is great for?

I mostly posted the pic because I was curious if that kind of wear is normal from a case. From the responses I get the feeling my assumptions were right and its not. I'm 100% open to suggestions for hard cases. I planned on buying the pooldawg one when its in stock to replace this one (I...

This particular cue has never played a game. It's brand new, and was flawless when it arrived.

Well I am debating returning them to him. I knew they were used when purchasing, but was not told they smelled of cigarette smoke. That's why I came here, to see if my problems were specific to a bad case or not knowing what this type of case was like...

I can post pics from the listing (or a link to it) I can also take pictures of certain parts of the case if that would be more helpful? http://www.ebay.com/itm/321745116410?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Is the listing with the pictures he had available.

Erm, the "Made in China" variety. I wasn't aware of that when ordering them. Unfortunately the one I want to order is still out of stock. I don't see a brand on them anywhere.

I don't know why I never thought of that, but that is a great idea! I just did that, and looked down there and aside from a very slight amount of dust I don't see anything. The scratches seem to be from the fabric itself which is only at the top (the holes don't run all the way through it...

So I got a couple "new" cases for our cues instead of the soft cases they came with, and I noticed that the inside of the case has started to scuff the end of the butt a little. Suffice to say that was a tad irritating but I was curious, is this normal? I didn't think it was but *shrugs* I've...

Have been and will continue to. Not learning proper care for a tool generally leads to many new tools. That can get expensive.

I looked up that Q-wiz you mentioned and am curious why you don't use the polishing side of the pad instead of a soft towel? I may have been looking at a different product, not sure. Would something like...

What on earth is a greenie? >.> So something slightly abrasive (magic eraser) is good? Guessing you'd wipe down with that, then polish with microfiber cloth?

What's the scotch brite pad/magic eraser for?

Really interesting article. I am "that guy" that says I play better after drinking; however by drinking I mean one MAYBE two drinks tops. And I'm talking a beer or a mike's hard. Nothing terribly strong, and any more than that and suddenly I can't seem to hit anything lol.

This is probably stupid obvious, but assuming the shape should be the round shape it is now. Looking at the bar room cues, the ones that look like mushrooms are probably the ones that need shaping?
