JoeyInCali Maker of Joey Bautista Cues Silver Member Oct 5, 2016 #2 That's horrible. He should have used zip ties.
Redneck Jim AzB Silver Member Silver Member Oct 5, 2016 #3 Duct tape must not have been available when this repair was done.

Yotehntr AzB Silver Member Silver Member Oct 5, 2016 #5 Haven't tapped the cue on the floor to call for a rack in quite a few years... someone was pizzed when they called that time huh? LOL

HawaiianEye AzB Silver Member Silver Member Oct 6, 2016 #6 Damn! That is a rare find! You better hold on to it. You've found a "bail-a-bushka" in the rough.

WildWing Super Gun Mod Silver Member Oct 6, 2016 #9 It's not in bad shape at all. With some sandpaper and epoxy, I could make that sneaky you one you have to have. All the best, WW

Yotehntr AzB Silver Member Silver Member Oct 6, 2016 #11 Perhaps the long for gotten sighting system? Bend the twist up to sight down the cue?
CuesDirectly AzB Silver Member Silver Member Oct 7, 2016 #12 It was Fred Flintstones cue. Then one day Bam Bam got ahold of it. Fred racked the balls, Bam Bam broke. Then Barney put on the wire. You don't want to know what Wilma did with it,
