At SBE one year. A collector makes a comment while looking at a shaft - "ehh, you can see the glue line at the ferrule... I don't like to see that". A VERY well known cuemaker (won't mention the name) overhears this and chimes in - "I WANT to see the glue line... that way I know the glue is everywhere inside that ferrule".
Little off topic, but I thought some people might get a laugh out of it. The guy was kind of speechless and seemed to change his tune and thoughts about the glue line right then and there.
