Make sure your chuck jaws are not on top of the slit in the collet, or you'll have a large red hand print on your forehead where you slapped it.:thumbup:

Arnot would know better than I would, so he is most likely correct; however, the ones I have seen that were not Uni-Loc were not very good, unless some custom maker machined his own to match a Uni-Loc, which some do.

Radial is a trademarked name. If it isn't Uni-LKoc ity isn't Radial, just a cheap knock-off.

My standard also has no markings. Outside diameter .375. My undersized is simply marked "UNDERSIZED". Outside diameter .371. I bet yours is standard.

Flat bottom thread minor diameter on the pin is .308. Bore to .312 for installing the pin for glue relief. For the standard thread, the spec's allow .265-.288 for internal minor diameter. Most likely you will go toward the larger as wood does not tap the same as steel. Practice on test dowels...

If you don't use the phenolic plug, use an H0 class fit tap for the shaft to tap the wood. It will fit tighter and last longer. If you go ahead and use a phenolic plug, you don't need the H0 fit tap, the standard H2 will work. Don't use the H0 for installing the pin. Ever. It is slightly smaller...

after your first tapping of the hole, fill it with cyano glue then fling it out. let it dry/cure completely then chase the hole again with the tap. This will help your threads last longer. For repairs later, you can bore out the hole and glue in a phenolic plug, then drill and tap the plug.

Next time you have it wrapped, request that it not be pressed, or that it be only lightly pressed. If you don't like it it can always be pressed later.

A nice thing about the G-10 is this: It is plenty strong enough in the line of the shot. When suffering side stress, it will shear. Titanium will not. What this means is that the cue will be salvagable without major repair. The pin can be machined out. It will not blow through the joint...

is it better for your pin to break or blow through the side of your joint?

That aint no horse. that's my wife!! Ahh, you boys can keep her.
