    Jump tip that draw

    I was watching the Morra, Yapp match from Vegas(I think). Yapp jumped over a ball(object ball was 7 feet away and drew the cue ball back 7.5 feet to get shape. I know there’s a lot of skill involved in that but what jump tips are out there that can do that?

    Could end up with the 5 in the side depending on shape…

    3 in the short corner, 4 in the long corner by the 8, 5 in the long corner . Those are pretty close to stop shots as the give natural angles to the next balls. After that, all balls get pocketed in the closest pocket.

    Tip keeps getting shredded

    Can you turn the shaft about a quarter turn to the left and post another pic? Something doesn’t look right on the white ferrule. The tip is also inside of the vault plate where it looks dented.

    Tip keeps getting shredded

    I’m not sure that a dull blade would cause this. If you look closely at the right side of the tip you can see that it looks like it was dented from the side. Maybe whatever happened there happened on the other side and caused the damage. I’m at a loss though…

    Your thoughts on outrageous cue prices

    All you have to do is think of it in reverse. How much $$ does x cuemaker need to earn a year to make a living? Personally, I wouldn’t do it for less than $120k How many cues can I make a year to earn that? Now add in overhead and I’d say I need to sell at least $200k to get there. That...

    Your thoughts on outrageous cue prices

    My thoughts are that the cues are probably still too cheap.

    Keilwood cutting

    I’m not sure if this is meant to be sarcastic but the information is sound. There is no industry standard , only what works for you. The longest I’ve taken between passes is about 8 years, the shortest about 3 months. I’m in no hurry and I don’t do much volume.

    Full splice lost art

    I agree but I used to think the butt had no effect on the shaft until I purchased a butt that made my normal playing shaft hit like a 2 x 4! Maybe it’s all in my head🤷‍♂️?

    Kielwood shafts snapping during turning, strange oscillation.. can't seem to figure it out.

    I have a 3” dead center and a 4 jaw independent chuck on my Hightower. I had a machinist make the center, pair that with the chuck and zeroing is pretty easy.

    Kielwood shafts snapping during turning, strange oscillation.. can't seem to figure it out.

    I use a dead center in the chuck and the spring loaded one in the tail stock. There’s not much pressure, I’m sure I could pinch it to stop it as well. I typically only use the spur driver on octagonal stock.
