    Comments on old school collar work on shafts

    Thanks Chris and Greg, It seems like we think the same and I would judge what to do. The reason the customer whant's a collar is that the custom cuemaker delivered his cue without any colar. The cue has a OB1 shaft so I mentioned that having a laminated shaft without a collar could cause it to...

    Comments on old school collar work on shafts

    I have a customer asking me to customize his shaft with a fat collar. In other words much wider/higher than the normal design. My reply was "sure" but then it struck me after thinking this through, do I weaken the shaft in it's joint area? He's talking of having a collar as wide/long as the...

    I found a new glue for tips - any one tried this ?

    The point with this thread was that I had been using Locktite but due to the local supply was so far away I had to drive quite some time to get it. This made me use some "wall mart" type of glue from a local "all-in-one" shop which sells any thing from spare parts to cars, boats, bicycles...

    I found a new glue for tips - any one tried this ?

    It would take you some tips and then you would get the experience to fixate it good enough. Note that there is no crisis if you have a ''lip'' hanging on one side as long as you have the ferrule covered. If you feel uncomfortable with this - machine a tip ''holder'' which you could put in...

    Holding Inlay material

    If you fixate your inlay material using which ever method prefered, why not cut the inlays using tabs? The tabs fixate the part and the tab would be placed on the bottom of the material. Now just use a nice cutter or something to sit down in your chair and cut the inlays out. More like pushing...

    Laser rpm tacometer - wow!

    Typically me I spend normally a lot of time investigating things before I decide to buy something. It includes functionality and how things should be done.

    Hybrid Wrap

    The Mezz cue with rubber is the Power Break cue. It has a rubber grip which is changeable. Personally I like the feeling this gives, it's like glued in your hand. The only problem is that is loose (so it could be changed) and could roll up when you put it in your case. Changig grip on this cue...
