Looks great Kim. If you have Hightower's smaller flange bearing type steady rest the ID is .750. You GD may fit perfectly in there.

Don't know, I didn't take it apart. For all I know its Brushless. I now see why I plugged it into the wall...... its a "120 Volt" DC motor. I still know better though. Thankfully its not fried. I don't have the Pennstate state controller. The one I have has been fine so far, although this is...

I get a big fat Duhhhh for that. With all those electronics courses I took 25+ years ago you'd think something would have clicked when I saw DC on the label. I'm lucky I didn't fry it. Old age *sigh* I got it running. It was the controller. It got dust down in the switch. I took it all apart...

I have the following type motor and it just failed. It was running fine. Turned it on and nothing, no noise or warning. I removed it from the controller and plugged it up to a PC cable connected to a wall outlket and it still didn't run. Any troubleshooting advice is welcome...

Forgot to post it. I got more of these a few days ago. Unless you got an email saying otherwise, I shipped the remaining orders out on Wednesday.

I had one of those years ago. Gouged the ferrule (luckily I tried it on 2 cheap house cues first). I threw it away. If you search around on here someone a while back made a setup using a power drill, in a holder I think made by Grizzly, mounted it to a board, bought a maintenance pin to use in...

Will these work? http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=186365&highlight=rfisher+brown

I am Leon. I just have to figure out where I can put it. Might have to ditch my 2nd lathe. I'll make some time to stop down your shop one weekend. Since you're not in a hurry to sell it, maybe when we head to Ocean City for the Ravens Conv. in a few weeks.

Get the Table Power Feed. It makes it nice especially if you work at the mill for several hours. I'm sure the table is a lot lighter than a Bridgeport but your hands/arms will still get tired. Plus, the feed is easier to get a nice smooth finish. If they have the Power Feed for the quill I'd...

I sold the last 30 Saturday. I am planning to get up to my buddy's shop this week. If its not raining too hard I'll run up there today. I'll let you know when/if I get more.

I would agree with all of that. I remember having problems with miscues and couldn't draw for crap with my 314 but it had a hard tip. I think LePro. Once I went to a Sniper both problems went away. I still miscue occasionally using extreme english but I think that is mostly because I use an...

Actually, this is a fun thread. I have to find a 5th grader to ask about this.... they'd probably know right away. You are on the right track with surface tension. It can't be weight, if you went by just that than ships and barges would sink. Hmmm, just looked it up Things sink or float due...

I have an idea on something you can try. Make a cue to accept replaceable dowel/ferrule/tip combinations. Take a house cue and cut it off where its about 3/4" and bore a 1/2 hole in it. Maybe 2" deep. Make up some 6" long dowels, one out of Hard Maple and another out of soft light flexible...

Read this: http://billiards.colostate.edu/bd_articles/2007/aug07.pdf This state that if the shaft end is stiffer with little sideway movement the theory of "opposite and equal reaction" will cause the cueball to squirt more. So that would mean not using a ferrule would give it a fair amount of...

If you go out to billiards.colostate.edu you will find an 8 or 9 part series on Squirt and Cue Deflection. Some of it gets pretty technical but its a good read if you want to design your own LD shaft. The basic premise as Robin said is low endmass. This is generally done with a ferrule that is...

Odd, looks like a straight walled Acme thread. Then again it looks a lot like the thread on a broom handle.

All orders were shipped this morning with the exception of the one that came in this morning. That one is packed and will go out tomorrow. Thanks!
