    Can Anybody Make Me An Ebony/Bone Cue?

    Evidently the camels don't mind. Seems to be plenty of bone to go around for now.

    Thanks for double roasting my brain. 🤯

    The old Viking "Super Joint"

    Forgive me for my brain asking WHY? Seems a gimmick connection for sure. It reminds me of the question surrounding the Indy car wheels where the single lug nut never cross threads when the torque wrench is applied? :unsure:

    IS THIS SOMETHING NEW (never seen 3/8x10 quik-release)

    A good woman is always so demanding! ;)

    IS THIS SOMETHING NEW (never seen 3/8x10 quik-release)

    It takes one soooooooo long to twist that shaft ALL the way down to lock it on the butt. :rolleyes: I am glad they finally have developed a cure! 😐

    CF shaft build, insert thread question

    +1 However, with that being the thought. There are many that got hood winked into believing they are all that. To the OP...I suspect the faces of your joint are amiss (or a mess) which ever you prefer. My guess is one or possibly both faces are convex and not fully locking. If this is the case...

    I guess my view is a bit different on this subject. A veneer is a veneer. It doesn't matter how it is made, it's still a veneer. I know many call this style recuts. And it is...a recut veneer. A veneer is described as a thin layer (could be of different types of material depending on the...

    I wasn't going to say anything from when I I first looked at this post. I'm sure the math is just a little skewed. However doing this style of cue on every pointed cue I build I certainly understand the exacting precision that is involved in a build such as this. If it's a 4pt cue then 12...

    Anyone clean their tips on the carpet before putting it back in the case?

    IMO disrespectful to room and the owner that is supplying you the place to play. But I guess that's just how I was raised. I've always walked into the restroom and grabbed a paper towel and if none, a couple bar napkins have always worked just fine. Then dispose of in a garbage can where all...

    I’m recently ordered a custom Kielwood shaft and have some questions about my customization options and how each will affect the playability.

    Not really sure how to read into this but if you're referring to me as a stoner it's not appreciated.

    Make that coin weight disappear by putting it on the scale and pressing the tare button if you intend to use it for size.

    Account Restored – Scammer Removed

    It really doesn't matter who or what. Very simply if someone has something to sell and they are asking that you send money to some other name...run don't walk. Too many times people get caught up in what they feel is a deal to good to pass up and do stupid stuff. I've been there myself only to...

    For you... maybe right up your alley. ;) For me... what would you do with a half finished shaft? :unsure:

    Looking for a cue maker that will make a plain jane or merry widow cue for 300$

    A little over 11 years on the forum and 18 posts. 11 of them have been in this thread. The man is clearly bored and just trying to get a rise of the group.

    Looking for a cue maker that will make a plain jane or merry widow cue for 300$

    This thread reminds me of the guy that walks into the shop and asks to put a 2 dollar tip on they bring with them.... Guy with tip: Do you install tips? Cuemaker: Sure, you want to wait for it? Guy with tip: How much? Cuemaker: $20 if you wait for it...$20 if you leave it. Guy with tip: But I...

    Searching For a Cue Maker To Tackle a Custom Kielwood Cue Shaft

    Torrified/roasted/baked/cooked maple wood is put through this process to squeeze the moisture from it and collapse the interior cells so moisture has a much harder time getting back into or out of the wood. When you remove the weight from wood this way it is naturally going to make it lighter...
