JRC, Do you mind if we circle back to "Well, I dropped my cue and it warped the extension. "? You stated the extension is only 2" long. By "warped" do you mean the pin got bent??? If so, why not explore having the existing pin removed and replaced? Just wondering, Gary

Neil, I've been looking at upgrading my 2-axis tapering rig, so your question is of interest to me as well. The Centroid software demo video is pretty convincing. I guess my only concern is the pretty strict requirements on the control PC - something I had not planned on, but not necessarily...

I agree - your cue was wrapped correctly. My 2 cents, Gary

I'm interested in what size as well. GPH is an odd parameter to size an air pump, though. And there's no indication of PSI, but who knows. Thanks for the idea, Gary

I wondered about something like that and if it would provide enough air. Not too expensive to test, I guess. Thanks Gary

Thanks Dave

Hey Guys, A while back, and I'm embarrassed to say how long back, I built myself an inlay machine. See post 43 in the below link for pictures: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=339520&page=3&highlight=cnc%2Cinlay I'm finally getting around to learning how to use it and have cut...

I recently started using the rubberized strips that a certain cuemaker sells and I have been impressed with them. They protect the shaft or butt and one size fits all - no fiddling with a collet that's a little too large and the next one down is a little too small. I thought they wouldn't be...

I use Loctite 401

I have never had any problem using CA to glue tips and carbon fiber pads together. But I don't use Loctite gel. Almost nothing will glue Delrin, except a special glue. My 2 cents, Gary

Ideologist said "It really depends on how the shaft was threaded. It probably fits. You may need to run a .300" reamer through the shaft opening, but I've never had to do that unless the shaft was undercut for a tight fit on a 60 degree thread . . . . " And to your point, the threading is...

I received my test kit yesterday. Once nice thing about water based is they can ship it by air, it doesn't have to go ground. My was shipped USPS Priority 2nd day on Thursday, got it Saturday. I thought you guys would like to see how much you get in the kit. FYI Gary

I ordered the "test kit" yesterday and look forward to trying it out.

Add me to the list of interested parties WRT current going price

I refinished my cue and it turned out much better. Thanks to all for your suggestions. Size cut down for Dave :wink:

Thanks guys - I REALLY appreciate it. I'll take your advice and try it again. Gary

This has been a great and informative thread, so I'd like to keep it going. I have a purple heart jump/break cue I've been working on and thought I'd try the CA finish on it. I rubbed in a coat of linseed oil, then two coats of thin CA, followed by 2 coats of medium CA. I sprayed accelerator in...

You've got more problems than just the decals lining up. The forearm is tapered. When you cut it, the kerf that you remove will suddenly make the front half and the back half have slightly different diameters. Normally, we'd re-taper the larger side to match - oops, goodbye decals. There is a...
