The original shaft taper for the early Joss Cues was taken from a Balabuska shaft.

I measured the shaft every 3" and recorded the measurements on a hand drawing. I still have the drawing.

Beautiful piece of history there. Thank you. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

In a way it makes Joss and your work an extension of the legacy of George Balabushka.

Very cool. :smile:

Thank you
That's cool

The cue with the long implex butt sleeve really grew on me.
At first I didn't buy it, but as a day or two went buy, I started to really appreciate the design.
The colors are fantastic, and it's a 59" cue.
Two others are 59 as well.

I agree with everything you said in your post.

Most of the last cues I made had 12 3/4 MM shafts and that is what I play with today.

Thanks for confirming. There are not too many of us who remember those old days, and the differences in specs today.

All the best,
WW
