It's all good. This is a 95% philosophical/analytical discussion with me.

I appreciate your take. I understand calling the curved part of a shaft parabolic is convenient and going to be close. Close is good enough, right? Hyperbolic is also going to be very close, as well as logarithmic. In one of the previous "parabolic" threads, someone else mentioned a...

3 day weekend!

No worries. Most of our differences will never be resolved, and we don't really want that to happen 100%. The majority of us are good natured to each other and want to edify in order to further the craft in whatever way we can contribute. Hopefully we, as a group, didn't fail to answer your...

ONLY amongst cuemakers, which makes such a statement inherently incorrect.

I have no doubt that someone somewhere at some point has made a shaft taper bar using a parabolic equation (whether for the entirety of the taper bar or only the curved section) and used it to cut their shafts. Maybe Kersenbrock did. I'm not saying it has never been done, I'm saying every...

The bottom line is "parabolic" sounds cool. It was used to describe a pool shaft taper at some point and caught on. Now it is a buzz word. Cuemakers who use the term to describe a shaft taper don't give a damn whether they use the term correctly or not. If I showed three curves on a graph...

Thanks for the compliment. :smile:

They won it 8 in a row, 11 of 13. At that time, there were only 8 teams in the league. Still amazing though.

Miracle on Ice should be in the discussion for sure. The entire team was made up of amateurs, average age of 21. Soviets were seasoned pros that won 6 of the last 7 gold medals. The Soviet team beat the NHL all stars in a challenge match 6-0 and was 5 -3-1 against NHL teams in the same year...

Rotate the cues 180 degrees every 3 months.

Renaissance.

Dang...I see you updated it to sold now.

I would like the G2 tips please.

I have created an evaluation version of CueBillet and posted it to my website. The evaluation version allows GCode programs to be generated for surfacing slabs to thickness. The other functions of CueBillet are included in the program for visual review, but no GCode is created for them...

I believe that to be accurate. I'm not sure myself, but I heard the difference is sooooo small it takes a Geschrey to measure it.

What's the difference between a room full of cuemakers and a room full of fools?
