Can't help you with the Hecules, but if your looking for the original maker of Balabushka cues (George Balabushka) I believe he has passed on some time ago. Company that makes Helmsteader cues now manufactures a Balabushka line that is in every way inferior to the originals. I know if a guy in Pittsburgh that does work on those cues, his name is Paul Mottey and does top quality work (will cost you top price though).

What exactly do you need, maybe I can help you out.

WOW Haven't heard anyone speak of Balabushka cues in many moons. Happen to have one that was owned by fellow that used to play pool out of St Louis named Louie Roberts (St Louie Louie)
An unscrupulous fellow who would dump his mother for a dime but very talented,drugs supposedly got him but my thoughts are he dumped the wrong person.
Had almost forgot about it till I read this thread. Haven't taken it out of case in 15+years as it is stored at my folks house.
