I have tried and made both type of extensions and the butt extensions that attach with a thread are better in every way in my opinion. They are fast to put on when needed, and the balance remains good as you will be gripping the cue from a different location anyway when you're reaching for...

Absolutely stunning find. Owning a cue like that must be a priceless feeling! Such an outstanding piece of cue history, it makes me speechless :smile:

Thank you for making this! It is really nice to be able to watch you play and comment on it while doing so. There is a lot of good stuff there I could incorporate in my play aswell, especially in situation where you got slightly out of line and talk about different ways to get out anyway :smile:

I forgot to add the taper measurements in my earlier posts but here they are. Point of measurement in cm, measured from the tip towards the joint. 0cm - 12.5mm 10cm - 12.5mm 20cm - 12.5mm 30cm - 12.5mm 35cm - 12.6mm 40cm - 13.0mm 45cm - 14.3mm 50cm - 15.6mm 55cm - 16.9mm 60cm - 18.4mm 65cm -...

^ Nice! I think it will be a hit and of course a welcome addition to the CF market. It is also time to give one last update regarding the Cynergy I've had the pleasure of owning. For once this part is easy as pie, due to the fact that I feel exactly the same about the shaft as I did first...

Nice work! I really like your enginuity with tools adapted or made for cue work. Please post pics once this build is done, I can't wait to see how it all turns out when finished :cool:

^ Clean work on the ferrule replacement. What glue did you use on it if you don't mind me asking? I also own a Cynergy, no need to change the ferrule yet but it would be nice to know what worked for you :smile:

Very impressive stuff. Nice to see such attention to aesthetics on the control box and the computer models.

I use their hard maple shafts. Mezz still makes them and they are great for their price point. I take them down a little in diameter and lengthen the taper quite a bit to suite my taste better. The one I like the most has been taken down to 12.2mm and has a similiar taper to the Cynergy. It is...

^ The Cuetec appealed to me with its tip size, ferrule and taper, so I thought to give a competing product a chance aswell :smile: I like it obviously so it was worth a giving a shot at :embarrassed2: I will be giving the Ignite a try aswell, but they under a rock at the moment. I should be...

^ I too hate the Sniper tip that comes standard on the shaft, and that is the reason why I had it replaced by Seyberts with a Zan Grip hard tip. Didn't even want to bother with the Sniper as I've never liked it on other shafts. The Zan is a very nice feeling, grippy and easy to maintain tip that...

Not yet but I do have a line cast out fishing for one :wink: I've heard good things about the Ignite from finnish pro players so I'm looking forward to getting mine aswell. I'll update the thread when I get to compare the two or maybe write a review of its own if I feel like there is enough...

Thankfully it is very easy to skip over all threads labeled "review" if you aren't interested in the least ;) I know there are reviews out there of most of the CF shafts but I don't think it hurts anyone having an extra one, written in a little more detail perhaps. It isn't quite as simple all...

I wrote a review of the Cuetec Cynergy shaft here on AzB's Cue and shaft review subforum. Very few of our members browse those sub categories here, so I thought to share the link here on Main forum so everyone interested can get to read it through :)...

I decided to give carbon fiber shafts another go even though I didn't grow to like the 12.4mm Revo enough to keep it. I really liked the stiffnes of CF shaft but the unnatural feel of the Revo eventually made me give up on it. There are now other manufacturers making CF shafts and they all...
