Hello all,

After losing my ass due to unforeseen events, If I could and if allowed, I’d like to offer remodel services in exchange for a cue. I’m located in FORT WORTH, TEXAS.
I’ve been a member for quite a while. I mainly scroll through and admire collections. New cues. Just admiring the art and beauty of the craft. I Absolutely enjoy the forum and it’s members. I don’t buy and sell much online. Every transaction I have made has been 100%. I take that seriously. Most of my transactions are local. Fast forward to now

If not allowed, (apologies in advance),admin please delete.

I’m starting over. Hell, most have been there at some point. Im 35, and previous life choices many moons ago have finally caught up with me. Health. Through collateral damage, my mental health rapidly diminished. To a point nothing was worth living for. I didn’t belong here. I Couldn’t work. I lost literally everything I own minus 2 duffle bags of clothes, and my cue. I “pawned” the only cue I said I’d never sell no matter what. To whom I thought was a decent friend. He soon showed his true colors, wanting 3 fold to get my cue back. I’ll never see it again. Call me weird, call me crazy. But when Im at the table, my health, day to day bullshit, whatever work I have at that time, doctor this or doctor that, none of that matters. It’s my peace. Blood pressure drops, the peripheral neuropathy settles a bit, and i run them out. When my mother passed (my best friend) I was 25 and barely 4 years clean and sober. I feared what was next. So. I went to the pool hall. Shot for 9 hours and some change. No alcohol. No drugs. 4-5 hours were by myself. Besides the oilfield and construction, it’s what I know best. Thanks to a wonderful woman, now my amazing girlfriend, I’m exponentially better. I’d say fiancé, but I still need to fix me. Need to get back to who I was before.

Anywho,

I’m Not asking For a handout here of any kind, never have never will. But I am proposing this:

I’d like to trade remodeling services for a really nice custom cue. Mainly I focus more on custom bathrooms remodels and custom tile/stone showers. I can lay any flooring besides carpet. I just don’t care for it. As well as Interior trim, 45 crown (single, two and three phase). Really anything except electrical. I’m terrified of it. And I don’t mess with exterior repairs (don’t care to go get necessary permits and deal
With the city)

Please, if you don’t like my post, don’t bash it. Just move on and go about your day. I have enough negativity I’m needing to distance from.

PLENTY of professional references upon request. Tons of pictures. Most smaller/simpler showers start around $1200, and some go to $10,000 and up. Depends on complexity, build out, demo, etc... here are a couple installs
