5/16-14 love

[PDX]

While I do love a big pin, I can't get away from the good ol 5/16-14 pin.

1st is a Greg Sowder conversion of a 60's fullsplice with pantograph inlays.
2nd is a 90's Falcon loaded with bone and quite good looking. Normally I hate anything CNC, but this looks quite nice.
3rd is a Bob Runde that I've had for almost a decade.

The paperwork from the eBay sale on 2005 states the cue was Don Tozer's old cue from the early 1960's, possibly made by Bill Hawkins.

I just got the Falcon yesterday in a trade. I have a soft spot for falcons, they are a perfect mix between a Joss and a Schon. Canada's finest. I also have an old Mohawk that I love too.

I love this cue too. I'm pretty sure it's going to have an ivory joint soon.

Oh my, that Greg Sowder is my dream cue. It's just perfect. I've been trying to find something with a similar look for sale. You're a lucky guy!

I got really lucky. A friend fave it to me as payment for selling off his collection. Just the right amount of decoration, wonderful colors, I love earthy tones, and it's a 50 year old fullsplice.

Love the Falcon! You don't come across many of those older loaded ones anymore!

I dig this cue. I just traded a D series mcdermott for it. I threw on my favorite shaft and couldn't miss a ball, so it can home with me. I'm not normally into fancy cues, but it flowed really nicely.

Cool. Well, if you ever want to part with it, I've got a nice home for it

Greg sure did a nice job with that conversion!
