    I have 9 ebony rounds for sale. The diameters are all about 1.34". The four on the left are 19.75-20" long. The last 5 run from 17 to 18". The rounds have a thin sealer on them. As seen in the pic, they have a bit of color here and there. There is some minor grain movement and a couple...

    how to design a true parabolic/conical tapered cue- ?

    No. Curves can have asymptotes. The boundary of an asymptote is linear but the line that approaches it is still a curve. It has to be a curve since it never reaches it. The shaft would gradually increase in diameter from the tip but slowly enough that it would look like a "pro taper" or very...

    how to design a true parabolic/conical tapered cue- ?

    Wow. A curve doesn't have to have a relative maximum or relative minimum to be a curve.

    how to design a true parabolic/conical tapered cue- ?

    A cone from tip to butt would throw off something somewhere. 10.5 mm tip for a typical joint and butt size. For a typical 12.5mm tip, either the joint is going to have to be really thin or the butt is going to have to be really fat. I've never made and hit with a cue with a really small or...

    how to design a true parabolic/conical tapered cue- ?

    I often want the impossible in my life as well. A lot of the LD "conical" shafts with small tips aren't really conical, they are much closer to three linear tapers. With a cutter. No, seriously. If the tip is 11.75 mm and the joint is a typical .845", there is only one way to make a concial...

    how to design a true parabolic/conical tapered cue- ?

    My response was in jest, and a result of a lot of water under the bridge (a lot of posts in this forum on the subject) when it comes to parabolic tapers. It sort of became a buzz word that IMO was applied to all tapered shafts that had a curve to them. There was even some speculation that a...

    Doing a parabolic taper also requires wearing a special hat.

    Project Tomahawk ferrule material.

    It takes a finish well, no problems reported by any customers. I have sprayed autoclear directly over Tomahawk, and have applied a very thin epoxy basecoat and then sprayed. No problems with either for me.

    Figured PH for sale

    I have 8 surplus figured purpleheart squares for sale. The curl is diagonal to the squares, if you accept that curl can be diagonal. If not, you can just call them "figured". They are all around 19.75" long, and are surfaced four sides to about 1.475". Dense material. Clean, I surfaced them...
