This is some stuff I picked up when Dufferin went out of business. I don't know if it is Courtland or Penn but it is one of them. White with black.

I still have a couple thousand of the ones I bought from Dufferin. They are 1" squares by 33" long.

Atlas usually has it. Try here http://www.cuestik.com/store/?DEPARTMENT_ID=79

Thanks for the help. I will try a couple of the suggestions. It is not me that wants to put a used tip back on, it is the customer. It may be that I just put a new moori on a couple weeks ago and they don't want to pay for another. I always charge to put tips on, even if it is a used one.

I know that this sounds like a simple procedure but I just wonder if there is a better way to do it. Occasionally I will have someone come in and ask for a new ferrule but want to put the same tip on that was on the old ferrule. Assuming the tip will fit the new ferrule, I have always just cut...

Wouldn't replacing the maple tenon reduce the effectiveness of the shaft by adding weight that you had just removed??

Of course you can. Predator has a patent on their shaft so that would be the only thing to worry about. Predator drills a two step hole. The bottom 3" is 1/4" and the top 2" inches is 5/16. The foam is just at the top 1/4" and appears to be to keep any dirt out of the hole while working on...

E-mail KJ. He has the right ones for sale.

Loctite Ultra Gel for about 2 years now. I used the Loctite Gel before that. I tried the 454 a long time ago and it worked fine but as others have said, I couldn't use it fast enough. A bottle of the Ultra Gel lasts about a month so it is always fresh.

This is what I use. It does a great job. Last time I bought some they were around $25. http://www.royceayr.com/assets/Uploads/RoyceRouterwholeCat.pdf Page 9 right at the bottom. 4 wing cutter.

It was a pretty tight go, tapping it into the 19/64 pin. I was only able to get a turn or two and then removed the tap and cleaned out the hole. I would be afraid that if I went any smaller something would give. I had a couple cuemakers suggest that getting the tap size down to .360 would...

Thanks Dick.

I have seen Gilmer with them in the past. http://www.gilmerwood.com/

Had a Cuetec cue come in with the insert destroyed. I drilled it out and replaced it with phenolic. Cut a 5/16 hole and tapped with a 3/8x14 tap. It was really loose. Tried a 19/64 hole and it was better but still loose. What is the tap that I should be using for Cuetec.

I charge $125 to $160 for my shafts.

Is it a 2 piece cue?? What happens if you roll the butt and shaft separately?? If they are staight it may be the joint that needs facing. If its a one piece cue follow the previous posters advice.

Do you have a way of measuring the ferrule or place a ruler beside it for reference. To me they look larger than a normal snooker cue.

KJ thanks for the translation from Canadian to US. I knew what I meant but others probably didn't.:):wink:

It might be that you are tightening it up a little too much in the lathe and as the wood is cut off the blank gets thinner and may bend in the centre.

I use a lot of Macassar Ebony in my cues and usually use it uncored. I can get a natural weight of about 18.5 oz and I really like the way it hits.
