"The whole trolling thing is separate from how skilled you and your mom think you are, or whether you make cues. You come on with two sentences, one to say it isn't 'rocket science' and another to say, 'just spin it up'. In reality what you are proposing to make is a threaded sleeve at the...

If you add to a cue you add a tiny bit of weight. yes. If it is well balanced and now longer you probably would never notice it. So no biggie. A 40 oz cue ten feet long would feel like a feather. It's all relative. Most 3/8 10 pins are not found on that cue. Where there is a will there is a...

Yes, I suggested a simple mid cue extension for an easy way to extend it a tad. 'Trolling cue makers' No. At time I have seen arguments get very heated over things that are so simple yet turn into the most ridicules nit picking - over thought solutions to non existent problems imaginable. So, I...

Well I know it can be done. And not real complicated. But wait! what if it ended up just hair over an inch? That might ruin the entire pool cue rocket science industry! We can' have that now can we. A starting point would look something like this. You can find a lot of different ones much...

You could just have someone spin up a small mid extension.

Very cool old cue here dirt cheap!

What a screaming deal

I'll make a ridicules low ball offer of $100.00 for the Rhino.

I like the repair. I would not have been surprised to see some people forget to provide the tenon on the connection. I have had some High end cues that relied upon the weight bolt to both center and hold the butt cap in place with a flat faced surface. Not kidding! You seem to think things out...

it looks great. I would have made sure the original bumper would be a proper fit even if it took awhile to find one. I have no idea if that is the case or not, but the bumper looks odd and if an original would not easily take its place then I would want that changed to the original diameter...

Okay. My Z shaft is far from stiff. It is stiff for it's small diameter for sure. I bet if you build a thin walled titanium shaft which will have near 0 end mass and almost 0 flex. it would not be 'low deflection' Thoughts?

So a thin titanium tube must be very low deflection? It is super light and strong enough to make a shaft out of. There is more to it than just end weight / mass. The amount of flex and where it flexes has a tremendous effect on what happens upon impact. End mass is a rather small part of that...

And we should not be the only ones paying them. Or way more than our fair share of them. That is what is being addressed.

No, you warn them that you are tired of being robbed, paying the price for their lack of any regulation, for competing with slave labor, and mention that they need to make changes because we are not going to be screwed by piss poor policy's that are costing us and enriching them. Then if they...

Educate us then. It took years of ignorance to dig this hole and will take time and effort to overcome the stupidity we have watched destroy our selves with by allowing it to take place. Now we are in great debt to a hostile country that controls more of our goods than we do. At what point...

So stop relying on the communist slave owners and build and buy AMERICAN GOODS! even if it takes a while to make the adjustments it would behoove us to stop using those A hole countries for things we want much less need.

So this is now at least the third wrap on this cue? wow. I see the new wrap is black but I can't tell much else. is this a linen or a leather wrap? My guess from it being shimmed is that it was leather then linen and now linen again? Show your work! I bet it's first rate from watching your...

Old style Tweeten tips were prone to fluffing into a marshmallow like mess. Now they are more like rock than leather. Any quality leather will polish up nicely with most any of the methods described. If it is so soft and absorbs moisture so easily that a bit of water or spit will break it down...

Yes, you are right about that!

This a super piece of history!
