    Bought a nice Merry Widow, want to add some custom inlay work. Need recommendation for who to call

    Anyone who builds cues and is willing to do it, can do it. But you will find very few who will do it. This has been asked many times on here. We used to do it, but no longer do it. Some makers get mad at you for adding inlays to their cue, so it was no longer worth the grief they gave on these...

    Spanish Bull Vs Scotch Leather

    Thicker leather is much easier to find than thin leather if you visit a local leather store. Go with calipers in your hand and look for something about .070" thick you like and get them to cut you a piece the size you want. Then find a local repairman to install it. Or your local guy can apply...

    We all have Dieckman or Deek-a-Mom story, Let hear you!!!

    When I wrote the Cue Building Book Dennis called me up and thanked me saying how happy he was now that he does not have to finish his book. When I saw he was going into the International Cuemakers Hall of Fame I ordered a cue from him. He brought it to me at the next Super Billiards Expo with...

    5/16-18 thread angle.

    Making things not easy to interchange was part of the reason some made things odd. They want you to buy their product for their cues not another brand product for their cue.

    Fargo Caps = The dumbing down of pool

    Atlanta had several big pool rooms that had A B or B C tournaments and there were only three handicaps. I played B division and only won one of he big B C event. They split the brackets 32 on each side and the winner of each played with a 11 to 8 handicap finals. This worked for several years...

    5/16-18 joint mystery.

    You asked the same questions over in the cuemakers forum and here is the answers I posted there for the benefit of those on the main forum. The thread angle on all mentioned is 60 degree. But the outside diameter varies. Thus Huebler shaft goes on Meucci, but Meucci does not go on Huebler...

    5/16-18 thread angle.

    Common 5/16-18 outside diameter is .310" only two thousandths undersized to true 5/16. But Meucci is often closer to .300" and .304' or so its very common also. Also sometimes the threads are not rolled as deep which makes them fit tighter. Some use a 17-64 (.266") hole in the insert before...
