Do you know whether it's a 14 or 18 thread pin? Makes a good deal of difference.

All the best,

That's an 18

If so, I would lean more to Frank Paradise. but, there are some problems with that, too. Frank didn't, as far as I know, use Delrin for the buttplate, and Frank also didn't tend to recess the weight bolt as far in the buttplate as this cue has. Though, there are some rare exceptions when Frank did recess the bolt in further. This one still has questions...

All the best,
WW

Did Palmer use an 18 thread pin?
Anyone know how the butt sleeve inlay cracked?
Cue appears refinished? and it sure does look like a titilist?
I'll go with Palmer (I doubt I'm right).
:: did Burton Spain use 18 thread pin? ::

Might be Paradise, as the other cue I asked about I believe was a Paradise

Palmer used an 18 thread pin. However, Palmer did not use stainless steel for the joint at the time when they were not putting bumpers in. And the joint rings do not look like any Palmer I've ever seen. Looks more like Paradise or Fedunka. Doesn't look like any Spain I've seen.

All the best,

I have been all over the place with this cue, same as the others.

Those butt sleeve rings...the joint rings...the pilot...and more.

I can't settle on any thing.


18 thread? And brass?


This is a very cool cue that I would love to see identified, but I can't go beyond "the usual suspects" based on some of the features.

I'm guessing the Phillips screw in the the butt cap is original Brunswick.
(some kind of kopy Kat , anything more will be surprising)

It's actually a pot metal "star bolt" and the joint rings are micarta and it's 5/16 x 18 TPI

Hope this helps. The butt rings are metal and pearl mixed

I dig this cue a lot. Well built. Dead nuts straight and plays well.

Not for sale though guys so don't bother with the PM's

Pot metal? What makes you say that? Pot metal would make a pretty poor screw or bolt.
