    Question about sanding down a shaft

    If it’s a nice custom cue leave the shaft alone and buy a new shaft made to your specifications Why ruin someone else’s work If you really need to modify a shaft sanding on a lathe is the only way to do it We are building some nice Cues, but I’ve never turned down a shaft I’ve been told that...

    Its George information?

    Looks like leather I wouldn't worry about the key I've had dozens of its George cases and never saw a reason to use the key I don't know what it would accomplish, especially if you want to actually use the cue

    What ever happened to the Sardo rack?

    I remember someone here on AZ years ago saying that their Sardo showed up in pieces when they bought one from a member. That didn't sound good especially since there is a new geometrical invention called the triangle with no moving parts.

    Forward balance or rear balanced?

    I guessed at the common denominator With so many variables you couldn't possibly put a percentage on it. Forward-weighted and evenly weighted cues are typically ordered by players who already know which cuemaker they want to work with and can be a highly engineered cue. Rear weighted cues...

It has been my experience that a good playing cue is a good player no matter how it is balanced. The actual balance...
