    Using a flat face shaft with a piloted joint?

    It’s not a piston…the faces are screwed together leaving them no ability to get closer to be able to compress any air…much less it’s not a “seal” that’s going to hold pressurized air even if it wanted to. Stay calm and carry on lol

    Cortland Linen Wrap

    The pressed cortlands were nicely smooth and slick. The closest you will get is switching to a modern braided fishing line (spiderwire among others) that won’t ever wear out. There’s all kinds of colors and synthetic materials used in them, some look and feel more so or less so “plastic”...

    Ratcheting Wrench for Diamond table legs

    Yeah thats what my protos look like. It’s called a ratcheting “line wrench” They are fine in semi tight spots but not as much as the Alden in very tight spots like a pneumatic panel. That and they can kind of be a little goofy but it is a very nice tool. I can get more torque than the...

    Tip position and cue ball spin at CB/OB impact are two different things!

    A moving rotating sphere is definitely easier to control than a moving one with no rotation. A little run on wider angled banks and kicks is related to the topic. {Correct. That was just sort of how I tried to explain it. Sometimes I don't want the cue ball to slide at all. So I try to start...
