Ah thats why I never heard of him...I have never seen either show
 
When I said Nick later address the straightness of the cue later in thread, that says it was poster @7:12 AM the following morning, I have no lathe or dial indicator to critcally address any run out a cue may have. I simply put the heavier shaft on the butt, rolled it across the table, saw noting to attract my attention, and proceeded to play with it....

So your saying the cue straightened itself out in 3 hours and 19 minutes?

:eek:

7:12 the following A.M. is only 3 hours 19 minutes later than 5:09 pm the evening before?
I never witnessed the cue prior to my receiving it so I never witnessed it needing to be straightened out?

How did this thread become the circus that it has?

that was close!!!

I was wondering why such a "prize" was offered at such a good price. I just happend to check AZ as this was being posted. I would have had an aneurysm if I bought this and it had some roll out. Thanks to everyone for raising awareness. Oh, good luck on your sale sir.:wink:

Do you really need to ask?
 
Hay nineball champ

Bama still treating you good? Will you be a world champ before you are 18? I hope the best for you and stay in school.
The cue rolls straight together. I talked to Mr Jerry about it and he said that the joint will stay off the table when rolled together.
I gave this cue to Mr Phil. I am giving him a very nice Scruggs cue and only want what he can sell this cue for.
Someone is going to get a steal of a cue and Mr Phil is going to get a Scruggs veneer cue back for basicly nothing. He gave it to me a while back for 9Ball lessons. So now I will be giving it back! Neat stuff yes. Conditionally of course. He can never sell the cue!
It is a give away. The blankis around $400 from Davis. The ivory joint is a extra $200 from Jerry and the conversion with 2 shafts is a little lower because of the full slpice. Figure $500 and all the extras. You are looking at $1100.00 in investment with a wait.
Good Luck with the sale Phil. If you get less don't sweat it. You will have a nice Scruggs from me. You have been a good friend. Thanks,
Your friend,
Nick :)

NICK,
THIS HAS ME VERY CONFUSED..... -R- DOESN'T USE A PARABOLIC/COKE BOTTLE TAPER, SO WHY WOULD THE JOINT STAY OFF THE TABLE?

MY OTHER QUESTION IS..... HOW DOES A FULLSPLICE GO FROM BEING WARPED TO STRAIGHT, OVERNIGHT, OR EVEN WORSE, IN 3 HOURS?

THIS ENTIRE CUE GOING BACK TO STRAIGHT HAS ME VERY CONFUSED AND CURIOUS.

TO ME, IT'S EITHER STRAIGHT OR IT'S WARPED. A FULLSPLICE WILL NOT GO BACK AND FORTH

It's all rather mystical, isn't it?

Could there have been a misunderstinking and the TIP (of the heavier shaft) stays on the table when when rolled affixed to the butt because of the facing?
 
Easy

The cue rolls straight together. The shaft stays flat on the table or at least on my pooltable. But there is a slight variance in the hight that the joint stays off the table when it is rolled seperately.
Much as old joss cues with double tappers did. And as a matter of fact Jerry has done so many differant tappers on his butts over the years to accomidate the custom orders that I am sure his tapper is built to order on any part of anything he builds. If the buyer specifies anything Jerry will do it for the right price.
There are many old Joss cues, pre 1973 that do the exact same thing this cue does when rolled.
That is why I said in my origional thread it would be a non issue to most. Many builders use this tapper and the butt appears to have a slight wobble but is is dead straight in a laith or when the cue is together. As you say it is not Jerry's typical tapper but if you like the double type tapper this cue is for you.
This happened to a cue you sent me once Marcus. I swore it was not straight but it was in the bottle neck and spun true when the builder checked it. That cue too rolled straight together.
Thanks for asking.
Just send me the cue Phil. I will send you a very nice Scruggs and thanks for everything.
Nick ;)

MORE QUESTIONS...... HOW DOES A PARABOLIC TAPER DISAPPEAR WHEN YOU PUT THE SHAFT ON? THAT STATEMENT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME. I'M JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND, I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE.

WITH A SW, WETHER THE SHAFT IS ON OR NOT THE VARIANCE TO THE TABLE AT THE JOINT DOES NOT CHANGE. AND IF YOUR SAYING THIS CUE HAS A "DOUBLE" TAPER(PARABOLIC), IT SHOULD DO THE SAME.

WHAT CUE DID I SEND YOU THAT HAD THIS HAPPEN?
 
?????????????

You sent me a ###### a while back that moved 4 times more than this cue. It rolled straight together kind of. #### chuched it up and the pin stayed dead nuts. This cue has so much less movement . How you all of a sudden can say the exact opposite of what you told when I sent that cue back to you makes me have to say you are not a truthful person.
When something is alright with something you are selling but not alright even when comparatively speaking way straighter than your stuff as far as straightness but your cue is straight yet this very same exact description you find impossable makes me say to you WTF are you talking about.
You tried to tell me over and over the cue was straight and I said I can't sell a cue that moves like that. Phil's cue is in another universe as far as movement. You are a smart man playing dumb. Why?
I wouldn't give a cue to anyone unless it was worth giving. Ask Grader. I gave him a 6 point Rauenzahn that was on the fancy side.
Just send me the cue Mr Phil. Enjoy the Scruggs and rember you can never sell it. It is a guift. It is the cue in the far right of my avitar!!!
Mr Marcue I will PM you the cue makers name.
Nick :)

THAT CUE HAD A PARABOLIC TAPER, YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND, SO I TOOK IT BACK...... JUST LIKE I SHOULD HAVE. DON'T TRY TO CALL ME OUT WHEN I DID THE RIGHT THING. ###### EVEN TOLD YOU THE CUE WAS STRAIGHT.

I'M SURE YOU KNOW WAY MORE THAN I DO NICK, YOU EVEN KEEP REFERRING TO A PARABOLIC TAPER AS A "DOUBLE TAPPER", SO YOU HAVE TO KNOW MORE THAN ME....... I NEVER KNOW WTF I'M TALKING ABOUT.

MY CUE WAS STRAIGHT, PROVEN BY THE CUEMAKER, BUT YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND. SO I TOOK IT BACK.

I'M NOT SMART, YOU JUST TOLD ME THAT I DON'T KNOW WTF I'M TALKING ABOUT, SO I GUESS I'M DUMB, NOT JUST "PLAYING DUMB"

PHILS CUE IS CROOKED, AND YOU KNOW IT. THE ###### WAS STRAIGHT, YOU JUST DIDN'T UNDERSTAND.

I KNOW THIS -R- CUE WAS BUILT WITH A STRAIGHT TAPER. (*VERIFIED AS FACT) AND HAS DEVELOPED A ROLL IN THE NOSE BECAUSE DAVIS DOESN'T SEASON THE WOOD FOR HIS BLANKS LONG ENOUGH.

Don't book it

The joint is smaller than the forearm and that is a bottle neck. The blank is not perfect and may have origionally been straight tappered but when it left Jerry's shop that was changed but is way straighter than what you personally call straight.
I already have it traded. Marcus you are such a sugar and $hit person I can't believe it. You have a cue it is sugar. I have a cue way straighter then your pos and it is $hit.
How you get away with the BS you spew is testamony to what I hear more and more every day said about as I call around the world. You do yourself a disservvice. I will Mic the joint and the forearm just below it and post the numbers just for a laugh. And I will be laughing at you not with you. How you can make others so mad they want to see you without Chris so they can teach you manners is beyond me. But live and learn. This cue will go and there are no hard felings at all here but I can say I have a feeling there are more than one AZers that don't feel the same as I do. And I don't mean Mr Phil.
Good luck with your sales.
Nick:)
