I if you doing to do it, imo you should remove all the old threads and have full length of new threads for maximum strength. I would bore it out and plug it to the depth that the pin sticks out or more... Sent from my SM-G990U1 using Tapatalk

Having someone drill and tap a hole in the bottom of a SW is the last thing that should be done. With some SW cues its not possible due to the length and placement of the connecting screw used to joint the base and the grip as they call them. With some it is possible to get an inch or two of...

I have only ever made one of those so far and it was kind of a proto-type, but it seemed to work well. Hopefully some time in the future I will build a batch of them as there is definitely a demand!

Thanks John, glad to hear some one thinks so! Lol Anyway, I took the idea from when i worked at Jacoby Cues. They use the inner tubes for every operation when is comes to a finished cue; tip installs, joint replacements, butt cap replacements, you name it. They also finish cut to depth and...

Glad you found what you needed.... I have almost never seen or heard of a different kind of Viking joint pin that was not their moified 5/16-18 quick release, other than some new custom ordered cues that had radial pins and the old Vikings from the 70s and 80s that used full 5/16-18 and 3/8-10...

Just because a joint screw is "quick release" does not make it "Uni-Lock"!!!!

Like Joey said it's Mike Lambros, but also it Guido Orlandi from MI.... Lomax and Gulyassy both use flat faced joints...

I have an old Meuller cue made by Ryan and Troy that a friend of mine purchased off the website years ago if you might be interested in that? I am asking $450. It is a brown stained merry widow style cue with stitched rings and 5/16-14 pin. If so email me at austinhillcuerepair@gmail.com

I am selling a gently used Taper Shaper and a brand new Inlay Pantograph. Both were bought directly from Unique Products and come with everything included new and even some extras. I live in Las Vegas, NV and would fancy an in person pick up to save the hassle of shipping. However, I will ship...

How do I mark a sales thread Sold? I did manage to do it one time, but haven't been able to figure out how since. Thanks for the help in advance! I apologize for dumb questions I am new to this whole thing.

Sold thanks
