Joey,
Slightly Tapered pin into stepped minor hole. Larger hole is tweaked on each shaft to obtain very tight fit just before facing.
The taper is only .312 to .3175 and can't be seen with the naked eye but without the tweaking of the stepped minor, the shaft will only screw on half way and reaches refusal.
You can use this method on a non tapered pin as well with a little experimentation. I modify many Omega DPK shafts for customers. Just create a smaller minor where the pin fits very very tightly and will not insert more than half way in because of friction of the pin - insert interface. Then get and use a larger chucking reamer. At about 1000 RPM step the minor just a little. What size reamer? I don't know you have to guess at first then you will most likely need to get another one or may be two. Try fitting the shaft to the cue and see how it goes. You want to have the last turn get very tight as facing happens.
McMaster Carr sells chucking reamers in any size in .0005 increments for about 20.00.
It took me buying three reamers and some trial and error to get my geometry perfect on my set up but now I know how far to insert the reamer, what size for my undersized initial minor and what size final reamer to use. I always go short of that insertion point and test the fit, then sneak up on the final insertion. It is amazing how just .001 makes such a difference concerning " go or no go" in the ID when searching for the perfect reamer size. I eventually interpolated mine down to the .0005 increment. But that just me.
I do a lot of work on Omega DPK cues and have put new inserts in many shafts and made them fit tighter using this method. Makes a big difference. Players don't like loose fitting joints and the stitch rings line up and stay lined up because it is very tight at facing and you can't over tighten to degrade the threads.
If you want your stitch rings to stay lined up over time, this is the way to do it and was the motivation behind this procedure from the get go. I use a 7 step tool change procedure for machining my shafts to that end.
