    Playing sober, can’t do it

    I gave up alcohol probably 4-5 years ago, it took a long time to get use to the pressure sober LoL. Practice at home sober was always good so I knew I didn't need it to play good but it definitely helped when making it to the finals in a tournament to try and win. Once in awhile...

    Birch dowel for a core - turns like crap..?

    Depends on what your after with a carbon. Everything works fine as the shaft by itself is extremely durable its just you'll have ping sound and the shaft is light. Heavy 2 part foam helped me a lot in what I was wanting to achieve. I use 2 different products to achieve the weight and avoid...

    How to handle aging eyesight

    I know a guy that his eye doctor prescribed some eye drops that somehow strengthens his eyes for 4-6 hours, then it wears off. He says it works well but was kinda expensive. He uses it for tournaments only

    Joel Davidas Joint Pin

    Looks the same to me. Only a guess but perhaps he cuts his own pins and just doesn't cut them as deep

    Weight of the finish

    I never used solarez but Id imagine it's no different. I use a playing card too

    Weight of the finish

    If for some reason I've got really high spots I'll knock it down with 220 or similar but almost always just a quick 400 sanding from butt to joint takes um out. I take alot of time keeping the finish level during drying to hopefully keep sanding at a minimum, and good lighting is the key to...

    Weight of the finish

    It's peeling away, didn't adhere? Looks like it anyway. I've never not sanded between coats unless my other coats are still tacky wet.

    Point alignment

    Few pictures.. Terrible choice of wood for pictures due to the dark grain but all I got on hand. I marked my tips in white. One above the line and one below which is not terrible til the final tapers and they can be 1/4-3/8" or more off 😒 So I guess on short runs it's not to bad but over a 30"...

    Point alignment

    Between centers and yes I put a finish line on them, there good til the final tapers of the butt. Like you said in the other thread the problem is elsewhere and I agree 100% just don't know what is causing it. What's odd is sometimes on the final taper their perfect and others way off which...
