bees wing is actually like tiny segmented curls or "broken" curls. he is right in calling the Cocobolo landscape figure.

my buddy buys lots of Phillipino cues with ivory and they come in with a black rubbery material covering the ivory parts.it rubs right off with a mild solvent.not sure what it is exactly but you could probably use a black magic marker to color them or whatever color the surrounding wood is,then...

i have some Nicaraguan that look similar in color,it is a true orange color with more yellow than red.it also stayed very light orange in color,it never got close to the mexican red stuff i usually get. i cut a big board up 2 years ago into squares and it is still noticeable lighter in...

first you need to be willing to spend around $1000 to buy 100 shafts.you can do a search here,the best shaft guys have almost all been listed here at some point.after you get the 100 shafts in,you can sort through them and find probably 50-70 really nice ones depending on who you bought them...

Schmelke is good for the money if your cues aren't going to have a large a-joint area,the blanks they sell come way oversized top and bottom,but almost finished size in the middle for my taper. you can also buy your own wood and send it to them.this way you can cut the 24" and 18" pieces of...

that pretty much sums it up. lots of good information in this thread.i do have some 5 minute epoxy that bonds at over 5000psi,which for those that don't know is more than double the best 5 minute epoxies.i was over-joyed when i found it and got the specs sheet from the manufacturer.i like...

somebody got a good deal here.basically half price.i'll probably not ever have and Cocobolo or Koa of that caliber again.

i actually think they match up better if the shafts is .001 smaller than the butt. that is just me though.

maybe joint pin,but you are probably right.cueman had a good idea if it turns out to be the joint pin.

yep,wise statement there. also you could have a ferrule problem or even a tip problem too.

skip weston does the best i have seen,if you can get in touch with him.

$13.50USD is only $13.54 in CAD. the difference is insignificant.

haha.you're a different type of Rat.we all like you. $13.50 isn't terrible but considering most guys pay $9.00 then you have to re-consider.why should Blue Hog pay $4.50 more for each tip.he shouldn't.just stick with the new distributor i gave you and you'll be set.

i told you in a private phone call b/c you asked me,i had no idea you would hang up the phone and call Kamui specifically to get the distributor in trouble.i didn't understand how the Kamui distributorships worked didn't realize my guy would get in trouble. my telling you was a mistake,you...

i am sitting on zero old tips and i will continue to use my regular suppliers who according to you don't follow the rules.not sure what that means but they are fair and honest and timely,which is all i really look for in a business transaction. after you rat out every Kamui tip dealer that...
