Ordered from Chris a few weeks ago. There was some mix up but Chris is more than accommodating.
Still awaiting this great product! So excited I can barely contain myself!
Good lord I am hoping your package is well on it's way... I don't recall a Calvin so I hope the mailing address is not to a Calvin LOL.....
Aside from Fred "Cornerman" I think I have everyone's package shipped up through todays order and Fred's package will go out tomorrow... His is a piece to a cuetec so it's not like it's gonna be a game changer LOL....
Chalk will not be ready by the BCA Tradeshow... Labels are 3-4 weeks from my supplier and my mock-ups won't happen until tomorrow... Will post pics and let people vote on the label color palettes after they are ready....
Break tips are actually getting closer.... I have a leather break tip that will blow past the samsara right now but I really want to be able to lap them which I think is doable...
In addition to the leather we are working on a synthetic as well that will be on par with the sonic. or predator phenolic.... That project will take longer just because of it's nature..
If you are in need of a good break tip that offers better performance than the samsara and good control unlike the g10 or phenolics... Jaden has a Jump/break for sale with his On Target Tip line that currently has me pretty impressed.. He is making them himself and not having them made for him so give him a shout... Yeah I am plugging a competitor but people keep asking for break tips and while I drag my feet I think they should know who to go see for a good one......
Accu-Rack Revisions.... LOL Yeah they look like spiders... I originally let the form follow their function even tho they looked nothing like conventional templates... The geometry and material has proven superior to the other templates and I no longer need them to have the wtf is that quality to them so version 2.0 of the templates will be out in the next month... Same material, same internal geometry just not so spidery looking =) I always thought calling them the Aracknids was pretty funny.....
I posted a thread about golf shirts... $25 each... These are at cost this go around..... Looking into possibly expanding to include a clothing line... I have a good friend who will be relocating to Knoxville who has been in graphics design for 20 years.. In college I would sell t-shirts to pool rooms and he did the art work and I made the deals.. We never had to have real jobs =).. I know Hustlin has a stranglehold and Universal is moving in but I think with good designs there is always room for one more....
My bridgeport mill should be here in the fall and the Breaksmith will come out of R&D at that point... The breakrak has been the standard for years now and I think anyone who values the break shot in 8-ball,9-ball, 10-ball or even 1-pocket will find out that it's not the best solution.....
Couple of other projects on the horizon but I need to source some help...
Outsville will be here awhile... No worries about the tips or anything else going away.. I intend to add more products as we go.... At 45 I am pretty sure I can't make it to world beater anymore but my products sure as hell can be.......
