Beautiful!
I really like the way the stripe slants.
By the way, aren't you joining Alan on his drive to Chico?

beautiful work!
you could really wreak some havoc with those at a pool hall.
the tops really are all quite lovely, you could get some stunning photos
if you could borrow a pool table for some shots.

Thanks For all the kind words Guys. And yes Neff that was my goal to use only the pool ball and add just a tip. it makes for a mighty tight little spinner. I did however break the delerin tip and it has now been replaced with a modified spintastics tip.

It's not the size that matters it's how you use it.
Just sayin.
