    Wavy vs ball thread

    I agree with you. I'm my opinion at the end of the day all any pin really does is draw the two halves together.

    Wavy vs ball thread

    Is it safe to assume the wavy one is gold colored?

    Cuefits?

    I've dealt with Perry a few times and have nothing but positive things to say.

    Wavy vs ball thread

    Giving this a bit of a bump to see if anyone can provide me with number....dimensions. Major and minor diameters. Thanks.

    Wavy vs ball thread

    Gentlemen.......another odd question for you all. Can anyone tell me the difference between a wavy pin/tap and a ball thread pin/tap? They seem to look the same to me. Is there a difference in pitch or diameters? I can't find any dimensions on the taps and the comparing the photos they look...

    Uni-Loc brass insert

    I rarely come across a Mezz cue so I'd never seen that pin before. Wasn't sure if it was their version of some piloted "thing", a bastardized version of a Uni-Loc.

    Thread mill to match Radial pin

    Another dumb question.........what the heck is the thread pitch of that cutter? Is it 10TPI or......... I've rarely seen those ball pins so I don't know diameters or what pitch they are. I was going to reach out to a tool maker and see if he's got the capability to grind such a thing. Does...

    Uni-Loc brass insert

    Hi Mike....... Well, the pin I tried was not the long thin one nor was it the bullet shaped one. Truthfully I didn't scrutinize it that closely but I will when I get home this evening. I believe it was similar to the middle photo....the Ghost. It had a much smaller registration flat than...

    Uni-Loc brass insert

    An update. I tried to fit a mismatched QR pin into an older Uni-Loc insert. Obviously didn't work. Does anyone know where to get the original Uni-Loc inserts that are NOT QR?

    What are the most stable and playable cue wood?

    Cocobolo and African blackwood with birdseye or curly maple are my fave hits.
