MIKE Webb Q

I am in search of a bumper for this queue
It’s from the late 80s maybe early 90s here’s a couple pictures. I’m hoping somebody out there has been hanging around thank you.

Early 90's
They had no finish on them, just sanding sealers. The bumpers were the stem bumpers with a 3/8x16 thread on them.
The extender was a phillips extender out of Canada. I brought some back to the USA when I did repairs for the Canadian pro tour.

Mr. Webb,

Are you aware of a source that has them for sale as a kit? From what I could find, De Roo makes them but doesn't sell the hardware separately. I did message them through the website to be sure though.

To my knowledge Mr. Phillips was the first to offer the extenders. You could install them in any Cue. I wasn't aware of Mr. Deroo til years after Mr. Phillips and he called it his own.
I don't know.
What ever makes people happy I guess.
I still have 3 of the originals somewhere with no intentions of selling them.

Fair enough, couldn't find any reference to Phillips, just De Roo. Is Phillips still around?

He would be really old if he is.

Helpful hint
After I brought them here to the States
Nat Greene of Southeast Cues
Fell in love with the extension and installed it into most of his Cues. A company over seas also jumped on the band wagon, just can't remember who.

Awesome, thank you for taking time out of your day to respond.

De Roo got back to me. They will sell them, but in packs of 5 at $300. Oh well, don't want it that bad.

I have to say, those are the strangest pics of a cue I've ever seen. Laying down in bed with feet/socks sticking up, while another person holds the cue...
