If you look closely, they used old balls and clearly the 5 ball is orange.

Did you read the original post?

Do they come with a black ferrule?

What you have there is a clone, a fake, a hoax.

The genuine Mazerak prorotype is held at Smythsonean Museum, in a collection not on display. It has the Mazerak signature on the forearm.

I have the only known picture outside the archive, this is the first time is is being shown publicly. As you can see it is not completely carbon fiber. It is in fact a full splice carbon fiber into BEM, with a carbon fiber wrap.

I need to get a new case, but I want it to cost less than my cue.

Perfect for someone who feels like paying 2.5x the price of a regular Volturi for the Predator logo, haha

I'm not a Volturi fan but I can see why having a case like this would be appealing for Predator, but I don't get how they came up with $1400 for it when a regular 3x6 Volturi can be had for about $600 from Seyberts.

Well it’s a special limited edition of course !!!

thanks for your answer i cant believe its right though.

the spit thing is true we used that years back on the side of tips. but soaking the whole tip softens it up.
some cue repair guys use super glue on the sides. i cant think that is good. but it looks great.

I use the top of the rail on a Valley, seems to work well for me.

I have no interest in those other, lame sports. But I thoroughly enjoyed every second of that ad.

It’s true that the CB is the one that wears down faster, but the other balls do also wear down.

So if you have an old ball set and the room replaces the CB, the CB could be a bit bigger.

By the way, for anyone who doubts that the CB wears down, stand a wooden rack on top of two OB (one on each corner) and then try to slide the CB under the rack. It usually slides under easily. If you try to slide an OB under the rack, it usually gets stuck.

A more precise way of demonstrating the size difference for a worn-down cue ball is to surround the cue ball with six object balls, in a ring. If you get five touching the cue ball (and each other), the sixth will leave a gap with the cue ball. If the cue ball is large, like maybe a new ball, the sixth object ball won't be able to complete the solid ring and will leave a gap.

In both cases, the size of the gap is three times the mismatch of the diameter of the cue ball to the object balls.

This technique can also detect a large/small object ball relative to the others. Is the one ball small compared to the stripes?
