I would like to start out by saying that on many previous occasions, a Mezz United Joint shaft would fit on a standard 5/16x14 joint just fine. Like, on a Joss cue, for example. It was a very tight fight, during the last few turns, but I never had any issue putting a Mezz United Joint shaft on a...

Maybe that is why Lucasi cores their Kielwood shafts with Carbon Fiber.

Justin Bergman seems to like his Bob Danielson Kielwood shaft a lot, because he has been using it for a long time. Take a gamble, and just order one directly from BD. I imagine they are pretty expensive though. I never see them for sale online though,on the used market, so I assume that means...

Sounds really awesome.

Yeah, me too. Those wood joint cues looked so cool, I thought. Biggest joint pin I ever seen. Always imagined that they probably hit super solid.

There is this highly rated seller on ebay, who auctions off these flawed Jacoby Black Seconds, with a cheap butt. They usually sell for pretty cheap. This one for example is ending on Sunday, and will probably sell for under $200...

Hi, I do not understand the slug rack thing. This was 9 ball? What balls were touching, and which ones were not? Just really curious. Thanks.

Yeah, anyone that takes 6 hours to rack the balls is OCD.

I am of the belief, and feeling that when it comes to Carbon fiber shafts, you really get what you pay for. For example, you could get a full CRICAL Carbon Fiber cue for about $120, on Amazon, but I would be shocked if it would be something that I would personally enjoy playing with. So far...

Archer was seemingly picking up lint that was not even there, lol. I remember thinking, wtf is he picking at?

OCD, as in chalking their tip 10 times before each shot? One player comes to mind. Jonathan Hennessee. Johnny Archer, with his picking at invisible lent on the cloth. That might be OCD too. A lot of very strong players might have some form of OCD.

Okay, I understand. Thanks a lot for the info. I will keep that in mind in the future. If it is vintage, and was low quality, then I guess the odds of the cue being warped, in both the butt and the shaft are high.

Hi, if you decide to auction these cues off, I would space the auctions out, with at least 5 day auctions, and only do 1 at a time, if they are identical. Just don't overcrowd the market too much with cues. They might sell for a lot less money if you just put them all up for auction at the same...

Wow, I never seen an Adam cue with the logo where it is located, up near the joint collar. Looks like it was made in the South West Style, with the 3/8x11 joint pin, and the SW Style ringwork, and SW Style butt sleeve. Everything looks SW Style, other then the 8 Points. I got nothing, but very...

Thanks. So, the BEM points are nothing special? It was the points that really caught my attention. Sounds like they are nothing special though. I love cues that have nicely figured woods in them. Are points like that something you tend to see on really cheap cues? I feel like such a fool, lol...
