Hi Mr Tucker

i want to ask you about your work..

1. Do you feel a different joint pin will create a different hit, let's say 3/8 x 10 flat face and 5/16 x 14 stainless steel...what type joint pin do you like best.. i ask this question because i notice that many member here like your cue with 5x16 x 14 stainless steel joint pin... but i also notice that you built many cue with 3/8 x 10 joint..so i ask this question...

2. is joint material will effect the feel about hit.. let's say stainless steel and phenolic

3. What wood combination you like best for build a cue for your player... i mean if someday you got a chance to built a cue for yourself:D what kind of wood you want to use and what kind of joint material, ferrule material and what kind of joint pin will you use...

4. do you thing bumperless will give you different about the hit...


I hope somebody know what i'm talking about:p.. damn, english is a very hard languange:D

Hey, i think it's a good idea to create a thread about a specific cuemaker..maybe now every member who want to ask about Tucker cue can put a post in this thread...offcourse if Mr Tucker is not bother with this thread.. I will create one for Eric Crisp...:thumbup:

Something to keep in mind.

Murray Tucker does not make his living building cues. He has a successful machining company and just loves to build cues.

Eric Crisp also does not build cues for a living. As a matter of fact, he just recently announced that he is taking an indefinite leave of absence from building cues. He has much more important priorities.

Both are tremendous craftsmen and build great cues. They are highly respected as cue makers, but not as a profession.

If you keep these things in mind. I think you will better understand it if they don't reply as you wish.

Well...it's never a big matter for me if Mr Tucker is busy and didn't reply my post...but, i certainly will be very happy if he can share his knowledge to many member who loves his work.. that's all i need. And i'm not push him to answer to this thread, maybe if he got time he can share with us. :smile:

Eric is a good man who gave his family the biggest priority in his life...i think that's what a gentleman should do. I'm gonna missed his work, but i respect his choice. :thumbup:
