If it's not a laminated shaft use a quality brand paint stripper. Make sure to mask the ferrule and joint collar first.

I weighed a customers Revo 12.9mm the other day, it was 4.3oz. I compared it to 2 cf shafts I made from blanks which were 12mm (3.1oz) and 13mm (3.4oz) . Was quite a surprise to me

Not the answer your looking for but a little bees wax on a stack wrap gives you excellent grip and feel. I understand if you don't like it but it helps on the cue I have that I wrapped with stack years ago. On another tack , I've recently made a break cue with a carbon fiber butt . It's a little...

I've done quite a few of these over the years with fairly good success rate. As the usual repair guy in my state (South Australia) I do a hell of a lot of cue repairs and delaminated 314's or Z's are pretty common with American style cue's. VERY GENTLY drill in to the hollow section to clean it...

Only because some people think you need to drive the tip pic in rather than a rapid gentle tap.

I fill with foam (rigid) but at that stage only an undersize hole has been drilled. Then drill and tap for the uni-loc insert

Thank you to all and in particular Michael Webb for the advice regarding Loctite Gel, DAP Rapidfuse and in general, the customer is very happy with the result , his cues playing very well and very consistent for him. Ended up using a traditional red fibre pad, small juma pad and then the kamui...

That works fine for me with uni-locs and the like but I agree with the other member who said it can take a bit of messing around to get things truly centred . That's mainly because I turn a lot of peoples 1 piece cues in to centre join 2 piece or 3/4 join cues and also replace old or broken...

Lol.still got most of a box of these. Soft and flat ! Not how I normally find wb tips

Yes I bring the tailstock forward with a live centre which has a flat face insert I machined up , holds it nice n flush n firm . This time I indeed used a little 180 or slightly coarser to rough it up a little. Also used the loctite gel to stick the fiber pad on. Then put the juma on, then the...

It feels very flat I just wondered if I'm making it a bit too smooth facing it off at 1000 rpm, it does feel super flat and smooth after and putting a piece of hardened tool steel against it there's no gap or wobble. And yes, I would normally leave a tiny amount of the old tip but in this case...

Just for interests sake this is from predator faq's "What type of glue should be used for the tip replacement? First preference is 3M’s DP420 or DP460. This epoxy had the strongest adhesiveness to the tip silencer during our testing. A second option is West system’s G5 glue. Other super...

Im guessing with the Dap rapid fuse you would use the all purpose not the wood glue ?

Thankyou Michael, much appreciated. I see for tips to silencer Predator are recommending 3M DP420 or 460 but I cant find it here at my normal places will have to look further and the price seems ridiculous, West Sytems G5 is another recommended by them altho I'm not a huge fan of 5min epoxys...

By the way , any hints or tips on glueing to the vault, I was very surprised when told the loctite pro had let go and a few lads here have had the original silencer pad come off.

I notice Atlas are out of stock too. Bugger

Just checked, Elforyn dont have them listed but I will email them, Atlas tend to charge through the roof for s/h.

Seriously ? wicked, I wonder if Elforyn have them, they sell Atlas stuff and are easier to deal with
