You won't strip them....its only catching the one face of the threadsee above, it is tight when fully screwed together, but less than a quarter turn "loose", and there is a serious wobble between the butt and shaft. I am fearful of really cranking it too tight to avoid stripping the threads.
Sure it would work.Got an aftermarket shaft that is correct thread for existing butt, but is a bit wobbly screwing on.
Anybody tried a bit of white teflon plumbing tape to tighten up the fit??
I don't have any tape handy to try, so I wondered if anyone had done it before me.
TIA.
In a pool hall situation it could make a little sense...but even then not really.I actually wonder if 760 would be better for a Diamond, since its rails are usually considered faster than other tables. The bed speed would more closely match the rail speed. I've never played on a Diamond with 760, but have played on dozens of Gold Crowns with 760 (and 860 of course).
see above, it is tight when fully screwed together, but less than a quarter turn "loose", and there is a serious wobble between the butt and shaft. I am fearful of really cranking it too tight to avoid stripping the threads.if it tight when fully screwed, then you don't need to do anything.
If it's not, there is a fitting issue and it could be fixed by re-threading the shaft but if it's a cheap shaft then I wouldn't bother with it. just sell it and get a better fitting shaft.
I've had 4 colonoscopies and due for another. Oh, what fun!!!Yet the older you get the more you will treasure them. And if you lose them you will pay a gastroenterologist or surgeon hefty sums to get them back.
