leather wrap Brings back memories, of a trusted friend, my KaBar :thumbup2:

?? Not starting a fued, but out sourcing to china should not be on anyones list of things to do, and can't see anyone I know doing it...:eek: To many good machinist here in the US, and I for one am willing to pay the extra to keep them busy...:grin:

switching shafts That is probably true about the fit, but some leagues won't allow that..If you break down your cue for any reason, it's considered a forfeit..Don't ask my why, they just do.......Better check first if you play league pool...

Coco-bolo-gna I think they have cocobolo confused with the Sandalwood from Africa, it's local name there is African Cocobolo..Cocobolo sounds better I guess than Sandalwood, you might thing it was for Dutch sandals instead of clogs.... http://www.prosono.co.za/en/sandalwood.shtml

Wow! I think I just gave up cue building, am now going into politics, less horse zhitt....And just think, they would have had poor old Joe B off at about page 8...:rolleyes: And just when I thought I could corner the market on LD shafts with a limb from a rubber tree....

cracked shaft It can be done, as the guys have already said by a good cue repair man..I have fixed several solids and 3 Predators that are still playing...Something like that I do for FREE here locally..And explain there is no warranty expressed or implied..If it doesn't hold, no hard feelings...

shaft You are right Cueman, according to their website, no warranty for eBay cues unless they are from a dealer on there and you have the proper paper work..

New Shaft I would have to say if you take what Mr KJ said and add what Mr Newton said to it, you have some really good and accurate advice..Now the bashing can comence, but 4 out of the last 12 Predator shafts I've bought new have been warped...Maybe to much cosmoline to get them here without...

chalker A facsimile of mine, cut angle, sticky tape bottom, turn as needed...

chalk? When they find out the percentage of rosin in it they will probably ban it anyway :deadhorse:

Joe Top of the line in every aspect! A credit to the billiard industry!:thumbup:

chuck I'm not wanting to start a war on here as I see it's easily done and don't knock anyone else's ideas and probably shouldn't even post this but someone asked......And I am not saying it is the ultimate answer, but it will give you the best of both worlds as far as a small lathe chuck...So...

new? Isn't that why we use an independently adjusted jaw chuck in the first place? Just asking? :confused:

Traded You can at least show us what you got? After all, some of us invested some time in it....

tap Atlas 3 flute 35.00 + their very special shipping and handling :confused:

It can be done, I have fixed a bunch myself...I read up on it and took several views from several different cue builders and came up with my own scheem..I built a lenghthwise adjustable straightening rack with a dial indicator to find the problem area...Used the info I read about here and from...

I was schooled on the high speed spinning also on a layered tip, it turns the glue loose on some because of the heat..Yes some go over board, Boy Scouts at heart I think..I use a couple of the mentioned ones only I rock mine instead of spinning, takes longer but I get a better finish..Also the...

onyx That's the skinny of it, sand circle, glue, shape, shoot!:thumbup: I switched from the Tiger Sniper to these to try as I heard they were harder and easier to install. I didn't see that, but maybe it's because my bad shot stroke is more liken to a break stroke, medical reasons..They tended...

Ultimate Burnisher The moisture off the side of a beer mug and the shoulder strap on my leather cue case is all I have ever needed, and you can't forget and leave it at home either! :thumbup:

Strange happenings I'm pretty sure someone has been following me for a couple of weeks, I think She has put a hit out...Does that mean she is upset with me playing?.....Does the phrase; I HATE THAT PLACE mean anything? :yikes:
