I'm going to order a Diamond Pro-Am around December '13 - February '14, and I was wondering what they usually run. I'm going to try to get a tournament used one, so prices for that PLUS delivery and assembly in Colorado Springs (in my basement). Appreciate all input!

I asked for 11.9mm shafts, so I'm assuming that's what I got. I haven't measured them yet, and I honestly don't really care. It's naturally weighted/balanced, and it feels good :)

The deflection is ridiculously small. I'm having to readjust from my OTHER ferrule-less shaft (on an OB-108 butt with a pressed triangle) that was already pretty low. The shaft I'm tending towards has a Kamui Black Hard (the other is a Tiger Emerald), and the action is effortless. I have to...

Purpleheart core: Lined up ringwork! :D

The razor-wire ringwork was surprisingly small. It's not perfect, but it's close enough that I'm extremely happy with the overall cue. I'm going to take it out tomorrow for a few hours... it should play well with the G-10 and purpleheart core :)

Where's your imagination Roger? Can't you just picture the simple beauty of this cue?!? The sleek black ebony... and the.. uh... burl of some kind. Pure awesome.

Cue is no longer for sale until I verify there has been no damage from being in a car driving cross country in -5 to 70 degree temperatures. lol

Football Sunday bump.

Bump for the early crowd.

I would like to find a new home for this one before my new RAT arrives ;)

Can I see the inside of the Porper?

Anybody looking for an inexpensive solid production cue made in the US, this is it. The deflection is really minimal for a solid maple shaft as well.

Pretty much this, no matter how much fun I have disagreeing with mia ;)

Yep, wife packed the scale, but I updated with pics and found my calipers :)

In case anyone has missed the lesson in this story: Always ship with insurance and signature confirmation. Never less.

This is excellent advice. I find that appealing to family can provide massive leverage to getting paid or getting items back... especially if they still live at home lol. If you're lucky, you get to hear the *smack* on the phone :D

Is the side handle riveted or stitched?

I'll get pics and accurate weights ASAP, but my wife may have packed my scale as we're moving soon. Sure I'll sell them separately if you like. I'll probably have to sell the shaft for like $50 because of how skinny it is though lol.

It's a standard 29" OB-108 butt with an 11.89mm 30" old growth solid maple shaft with no ferrule and a pressed triangle tip. The joint type is piloted 5/16x14. I forget the exact details of where the wood came from, but it was supposed to be like 200 years old or something. I'll get weights for...

Microwaves heat from the outside in, not the inside out. It's just not physically possible even with RF. http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/2118/do-microwave-ovens-cook-from-the-inside-out It agitates water molecules mostly, so wherever the water content is will get hot fastest (from...
