Best Answer

This is a subjective question that cannot be answered - there is no "best" but there are many good cue makers. The best cue makers have attention to detail and while they may use computer aided cutting, turning, etc., the cue construction is essentially by hand. They make sure that wood goes through multiple drying stages and have other checks throughout the process that cannot be performed by any mass production of cues. There are dozens of high quality cue makers today, and none could be identified as "best", except by an individual personal opinion.

Where can you get your cue weighted?

Most cues are made to be adjustable. The weight bolts are changed, added, or removed as needed from the butt end of the cue. Remove the rubber bumper from the butt end of the cue. If there is a weight well, then your cue is adjustable. If there is no weight well, then I would recommend you have a cue maker or cue repairman determine if your cue can be made adjustable.


Who are americas best pool cue makers?

The answer to this is subjective. All the US custom cue makers are good in their own right, the term "best" depends on what you refer to. The most intricate designs are only made by very few cue makers, and those made by hand are fewer still. By many people's measure, the level of intricate artwork measures the cue makers skill. However, some cue makers concentrate on craftsmanship of the cue, not artwork. Artwork on some of the "best" cues is performed by a craftsman other than the cuemaker. An example is Sandra Brady who is an expert ivory scrimshaw artist that has worked for cue manufacturers but does not make cues. "Best" can refer to satisfying hte customers neds in the design - Michael Wagner of Raven Custom Cues has spent many months working with a customer for acceptance of the design of a cue before even cutting a piece of wood. Each custom cue maker has their own strengths and weaknesses, and "best" will be determined by who meets your needs the best. Meet with your custom cue manufacturer and look at their work and how they will work with you before ordering a custom cue. However, the best custom cue manufacturers will charge a lot for even the simplest lookingof cues, so be prepared to "get what you pay for".

What is the best snooker cue in the world?

I would answer by saying that it is a matter of personal preference. However, my belief is that a tip size of between 9mm and 11mm is the ideal range for a snooker cue and will produce the best results for the discerning player.


What best snooker cue to buy?

There is no "best snooker cue", conversely to tennis rack a snooker cue is not just a tool to strike balls with, it is an extension of your arm as described by Dennis Taylor, former snooker player and a veteran snooker commentator. This is why most snooker players prefer not to change their cue's and some use the same cue for 30 years.Stephen Hendry, 7 times World Snooker Championship used through out his career until 2003 a 40 GBP cue which he bought when he was 14 years old. This proves that it is not the cue but it is the cue-er.There are many high quality snooker cue brands but it all comes down to your preference. John Parris is a very famous cue maker and many snooker professionals use his cues. Mike Wooldridge, Accurate, Master cues, O'minand Cuecraft are all high quality well known brands.I would personally advise you to buy a quality snooker cue that does not come with thick polish layers even if it will slightly cost you but taking good care of the cue means it will stick with you for the rest of your life and when improving in the game, you wouldn't feel that the piece of wood you are carrying is cheap and it is time to change it.


What is the value of a Raven cue SN-56 with both original inlaid shafts?

This cue sold for more than $6,000 new, and is expected to have increased in value if it is in excellent condition. It is unique because its shafts have inlaid artwork as well as the cue butt, unusual today. In addition, it is the only cue to date that has been autographed or initialed by the maker at Raven cues.


Who are Americas best custom pool cue makers?

Popular is a subjective word. There are dozens of excellent custom pool cue makers in the US, and depending upon what someone is looking for, some are better choices than others for many reasons. So, without listing at least 25 great custom cue makers, this answer is only a starting point, and is not meant to take away from the fantastic work performed by those not mentioned. If a fine handcrafted cue is wanted without any fancy work, Barringer Cues has been well known for decades, and also Mariposa. If fancy work is desired, the question now goes to how long do you want to wait and how fancy - Joss, Longoni, Pechauer, Raven, Schon, among many others, can provide the work. If true artistry is desired, the custom cue maker that works with an artist is needed - pdf Studios has been noted for this (several people worked to make the well known $50,000 Hustler cue), Richard Black is another, as is Paul Mottey. If you want the most popular, you may mean those that have sold the most, but this certainly does not make them better or more popular. Each custom cue maker has their own approach and only a handful can most likely fulfill your needs if you have a specific project in mind.


How much would a one piece Riley pool cue dated from 1956 cost that has felt tip and has original metal one piece casing and weighs 16.5 oz?

This sounds lke a snooker cue. It is not a pool cue. Riley was not a recognized cue manufacturer in the US as either a production or custom maker in 1956. This cue has little value in the US to a collector and no value to a pool player. It may have value to a snooker player.

What cue did willie mosconi use?

For a while when he first got started playing, Even winning Championships he didnt own a personal cue. He would have to find a good House cue (usually brunswick cue since that's all that was readily available and they sanctioned all the tournaments) or he would have to borrow one. It wasnt until he had won his 2nd or 3rd championship that he got in touch with the custom cue maker that used to work for Brunsick before quitting and going out on his own. The Cue makers name was "Rambow". Ballabushka Cues and Rambow Cues were the best cue makers at the time. Mosconi used mainly the Rambow Cues and i believe he had a few Ballabushka Cues as well. After a few years went by there were literally Hundreds if not thousands of custom cue makers! When that happened its hard to say what kind he used. The person to answer this question best would be promoter and long time friend of Willie Mosconi, Charlie Ursetti. Hope this helps. Brad
