You have a sense of humor. It is doubtful you would have been offended by my cotton candy suggestion.

Shaw must have been a fan of social media. To quote him, "The secret to success is to offend the greatest number of people."

Saddle soap. Google it. Inexpensive and great leather conditioner. Good luck!

My initial reply was to jokers post. It was not intended for you. For years I have had that thought and couldn't resist posting. As I have enough maple to build a house, carbon fiber is not an option for me. Sorry you were offended. I have had the same experience when I post. Very seldom do I...

I have been a cuemaker for over 40 years. Roger Pettit

You should have researched ask the cuemaker in the first place. On April 24 the topic was discussed. More discussion on cf shafts such as glues and more posted in this section.

I would like 3 feet of this great material. Thanks, Roger

You may be able to move balance up with 3/8 x 16 socket set screws inserted from the buttcap forward. May have to drill and tap a deeper hole. You need at least 2 screws locked together to prevent rattles. 5/16×18 socket set screws in from the joint on the shaft will work also. Drill and tap and...

Weight and balance point may be part of the equation also.

According to the ACA you are not a cue maker unless you are a member. Free advice is priceless. Take it at face value and reach your own conclusions before acting. Roger Pettit
