That's pretty much exactly the way I put my cues together. Did the handle warp? Or the forearm? What are your plans for it now?

krychekrowe · Apr 27, 2017

Hey Eric, I bought this new and sold it to a guy who, well had his way with it. Think he banged the forearm close to the grip on the rail and it resulted in a lift in the forearm. I have no plans for it but thought it be interesting taking it a part at looking inside

Ouch. Can I have it?

I'm a little surprised the tenon does not have glue rings or vertical notches.
Thanks for showing it.
That is a solid joint.
I like a little more reinforcement there nowadays. I use a threaded phenolic tube to reinforce the walls up in the handle.

Thought some of you cue wizards would like a couple of pictures.

It may have them on down the tenon, still inside the bore. Maybe not, too. It held up until it got whacked. I don't think any "A" joint would hold with an abusive side force.

Hahaha that was my next question but you beat me to it. Would be a good cue (when fixed) to give to a kid.

I'm in Europe so I don't think it would be worth the shipping. Maybe just turn it to a jump cue or something.

Or. It would be a good cue to add to my collection. I've been know to get lucky with repairs like that. :wink:

What's that innermost white core? Is that some kind of phenolic material? or is it metal? i cannot tell from the picture. Thanks.

I believe that is the stud. Either mild steel or aluminum from the looks of it, but maybe not. Tough to tell in the pic.

Nice jump handle....:wink:

It seems to be made out of aluminum, and the length is hard to tell at the moment. If you guys want me to cut further in to the handle wood I could do that.

No need. Appreciate the thought, though

CavinTan · Nov 15, 2017

CavinTan · Jan 6, 2018

JC · Jan 6, 2018
