    Shaft Cleaning

    Denatured alcohol applied with a magic eraser, with the grain works the best in my efforts.

If that is the case...

    What kind of cue is this?

    well it seems like it's worth $30, to him, cause that is an amount he accepted for it, but then it's debatable as to whether anyone is willing to go more in the way of gas money to actually get possession of it, so yeah, like Chris Hightower said, south of a hundred, but closer to $30.

    Wet Irish Linen Wrap

    You could consider dumping the drain water yourself rather than adding that to your wifes "duties". If the basement is that wet then I wouldn't store ANY cues down there that I liked. If the grips are absorbing that much moisture imagine what the cue wood is doing.

    SILVER COLOR ON BRASS INSERT?????

    The threaded insert in the shaft looks to be brass shore nuff, while the insert in the butt shore nuff does not. Not sure I understand the question he has.
