Ok....... K

Good to hear that it's not just locally.......

Would love to see/buy this but excuse me, why does he not make a DVD in English in the first place ? If this German version is made for the German market - OK - but if it's intension is for the rest of the English speaking World I would have put my money on a English version from the...

Never tried any of those golf rackets :D But I guess many of the pool players do just that - play golf. I understand that we suppose to have some kind of benefit in some way but that is unknown terrain for me :embarrassed2: K

Was just wondering how the rest of you experience the summer w.r.t pool playing / action during the summer ? Locally it seems like everybody enjoys the summer days and get back on the cloth in August(ish), no official tournaments and we're recharging.. But I guess it could be opposite for some...

A lot have been said here, but a small comment from me ; I have tested the same shaft with the same joint on different butt sections /cues and for sure there is differences which is noticeable for the me as a player... Many say - "it's the shaft" which makes the difference but my personal...

I think you are opening a whole can of worms here, simply because the "feeling" or "hit" is very subjective. Some like this, some like that and in general it all equals out. What some like - does not necessarily mean that it's your flavor. I would recommend testing the two versions and see if...

Have a look here http://www.bearcues.com/fullsplicecue.htm Quickly explained : Full splice consists of wedges which goes down in to the arm (like a house cue). The forarm goes therefor directly in to the butt section which completes the whole cue. Short splice have a forarm (the portion over...

The finals is going now

Torsten, Is that a picture of your Q-Perfect which was stolen or is this something you have designed in Photoshop ? In case - you are a damn good Photoshoper ;) I'm sure you would get some response on your dream cue. Kent

The short length on the PB2 was strange for me as well. But I have long arms which works against me. I did however manage to get good breaks with this as well but that was after some practice. How did you feel the Sonic performed compared to the Samsara? Not a combo I have tried :) K

First dedicated jump was a AirHog from Lucasi. I could jump very easily with this but the "shaft" part could be a little sticky. I love the rubber grip and used it until the cue warped and lost clear coat around the joint. The current cue I use is this one from Mezz ...

I started with a McDermott B+J. Could not jump at all with the stock tip. Was then one of the first to get Mikes G "Sledgehammer" (locally) and had a decent break and a average control. I could loose control on the CB very easily where the CB took a "round around the table" if I was not 100%...

The Samsara tip is not optimum for jump, but on a good break cue it puts more than enough power to the break. In respect of jump + break cue : If you can afford to have a separate break cue which is built for low deflection and then possibly buy a jump in addition - this is the ideal combo if...

Locally some have parked their BK2 cues and bought OB Break cues from me. The feedback is that they like the low deflection construction and many like the feel and power the Samsara tip gives. Also, I would recommend you checking out the Power Break DI and Power Break II from Mezz. A ton of...

K2 I did also look at the K2 when researching the topic and at that time I looked at a 2525 FR-G version with all the bells and whistles. Quote was $13 528. This included a HSD spindle and some SW. After talking to a supplier of end mills (no names mentioned) - which I know many of us use I...

Thanks Dick. Good to hear that this is something which works for our use. The hammer, does it punch deep and I expect you can "re-use" the holes to check the drying progress? Kent

Thank you for the link. That KF and KC model looks for sure like some decent stuff with good range and lots of features. This is the one I have - with 4 pegs and calibration in the cover to check if it's working http://caltek.en.ec21.com/SilkyCase_TM_Dig._Moisture_Tester--4080631_4081684.html...

A very important issue you mention there !!! When I turned the mentioned pice I used a dust mask and a dust extraction system which filters down to 0.03 Micron. Even if the router had a dedicated dust extraction "collar" while spinning - there was still a fair bit of black dust on my lathe...

Back in the shop now after Easter. Thanks KJ for your feedback. I have a moisture meeter - one of those cheap $100 ones - and this has hardly given me any readings at all on most of the wood I have pegged. So I have kind of just "put it on the shelf" since most of the wood I have is very dry -...
