FS: Old Westinghouse Micarta Ferrules

pathman said:
This is the most ridiculous post I have seen on this board yet.This stuff is still out there. I guarantee you most of the old-school cue builders still have it and will put one on one of they're cues for a hell of a lot less than $75.00. I can think of three right off the top of my head that have done this for me in the last two years. No way will I throw the names out there just to have all the nits call them up and beg for a ferrule to try and re-sell. Trust me, if you are a little resourceful, you can find it.

I'M GLAD YOU HAVE GUYS THAT WILL DO IT. I GOT 75.00 FOR EACH OF THE FERRULES I SOLD. I KNOW I WOULDN'T TAKE LESS THAN THAT FOR IT.

I think I will report you to the Feds, you are obviously a robber and criminal. :D Good for you Marcus, and they say you Yankees don't have any ingenuity. I'm just making meatballs man, take no offense.
 
Dick,

I was at Richard's shop last week to pick up a cue and bs with him. Believe me, he does NOT have any old yellow micarta left. The material he has to make 650 shafts is the "white" micarta, not the old yellow.

I talked to Richard in April and he told me he still had enough yellow micarta left for about 650 more shafts. He said he had bought a quantity from a guy who used to make knives and got it fairly cheaply.

Thank you sir for clearing that up. It feels much better to NOT be jealous!:D
 
I do have samples of yellowish micarta, fake yellowish micarta, micarta, paper based micarta, and SW melamine ferrules. They are part of my "ferrule" collection. I also have all kinds of Moori tips. I will post some pics once I got time to take them.

Great to talk to you today in person, I knew there was a piece of the puzzle missing in our communication.
 
I had a shaft and joint protectors made by Richard Harris between feb-june. I asked him about some micarta, He said he had but just a couple left
and they are not for sale at any price.
