    Carom Cues - Double Joint Shaft

    Bob is, of course, exactly correct. IMO, some cuemakers build a unique joint for their cues to encourage future shaft support be directed to them. Not an unreasonable marketing practice, but, beyond being "unique," such joints do not materially add to the performance of the cue.

    Brunswick table?

    In my youth, my local barbershop had an old 5x10 Brunswick that had three sets of rails, pool, carom, and (wait for it) one-pocket! The one-pocket setup had only two pockets at the foot corners. I think the sets were original, they looked it. They also had a cribbage board to put on the end...

    joint comparison

    I guess I will have to buy a shaft insert and see if it fits... needless expense, dammit. One of my major frustrations as a cuemaker is the plethora of joint screws in the industry. I get continual requests for shafts to fit xyz butts that would require me to stock probably a dozen different...

    Pete, I do not. My joint is much larger than the Longoni and the thread pitch does not match.

    Carbon Shafts for Wood Pin?

    I cannot produce a radial pin shaft, sorry. I have seen several on Kozoom, you can check there. There is certainly no problem using a 3C shaft on a pool butt -- the balls don't care....

    Carbon Shafts for Wood Pin?

    I make one, possibly could make one to fit your cue. I would need to know screw diameter and thread pitch, maybe easiest way is to send me one of your shafts and I could determine fit; another consideration is joint diameter; my joint is .880 and most other shafts of that style are only .850...

    contacting In Soo Park

    Folks, the Ashland Elks lodge needs a pro table installer to rework a lovely old 10' Brunswick pool table, new rails rubber, cloth tune-up, and install a snooker table as well. I want to refer In Soo to them but can't find a good contact number or email. Anyone have it, please?

    Something I’ve never seen

    Thank you sir, clearly I did not have all those facts. I will try to reset my Zanetti opinion (he certainly is a great player, of course).

    Something I’ve never seen

    In my opinion, Caudron lost because Zanetti whined about an obvious shot-clock violation (on the second shot of what would become a 13 point run) and Caudron told the timekeeper to waive it off. I lost respect for Zanetti which I have not regained since that match in 2013.
