Vlad, A steady hand and some patience by a cue repairman with a good reputation should be able to sand the shafts down easily while maintaining the same taper. I recommend getting only a single shaft taken down which would be the one you are going to play with and leaving a shaft at the full...

Bump for a great playing cue and good seller. No worries at all with this seller, don't hesitate pulling the trigger.

I knew KJ would have the expirenced answer. Force threading it by far is the best solution to get the tighest fit.

Drill out a 8mm hole to an accurate depth and glue in the pin. That is not an ideal way to install that pin but it will work with some very strong epoxy and probably will last. There is probably a better way. What is the use of the cue, it looks like a jump cue?

Bump for an amazing cue that hits a ton.

thanks for all the input, it has been very helpful and I am going to cut a groove soon. - PJ

I am having trouble cutting a wrap groove in a finished sneaky pete I made. Here is my setup and the tools I have to work with. Uniques Taper Shaper Hightower deluxe lathe (do not have taper bar or attachment) Harbor Freight Mini lathe. I understand I could do it on my Unique Taper Shaper...

Bump, I have hit with this cue and it is one of the best playing predator cues I've played with IMO. Wood to wood vs new metal collar cues. Rare to find these days.

I am getting into building my own shafts and am looking for a good supplier. I want to order a batch from Canada and a match from the US and give them a test spin. PM with any help to point me in the right direction.

Bump from a Lambros cue lover. This is a good price for this cue

I have completed my first two stacked leather wraps. The one thing that I felt needed improvement was the taking down of the wrap when first installed where it meets the forearm and the butt sleeve. I cut just a little bit to much so it is not precisely flush. What are some of the methods you...

Does anyone have access to carbon fiber tip pads similar to the ones on the OB Shafts? Thanks in advance. Pat J

I like tigers hard wax or carnuaba wax. It depends on the tip hardness to me. The harder tips I use tiger burnisher liquid, the softer tips I use the Tiger wax/Carnuaba wax it seems beef up the tips sidewalls a little bit more. so far no mushrooming and the wax solution leaves a nice finish on...

Thats a nice southwest. Bump to the top. More details please :)

I agree, it will be an interesting test. I will definitely explain to the client that this is a test run and if it fails I will install a standard brass insert. When I get it finished I will take pictures and share. Thanks for all the input.

Thanks for the response. :) I had a client ask me if I could make him a shaft that would fit a uni-loc quick release with a phenolic insert. He likes the feel of a phenolic insert compared to a brass insert. I say what the helll lets give it a try.

What is the Uni-Loc thread pattern? I took my maintenance arbors and gentle tried a few different thread patterns. The one that fit alright was a 3/8 10 thread pattern, it didn't fit the best but the threads ran through without any resistance or binding. Is that the thread? If not what is the...

I have a Unique Taper Shaper and it is by far far one of the best start up machines ever. I started building cues four months ago and I have already got my shaft building dialed in plus cutting down forearms and doing simple point work. Taper shaper can do these things and probably more. Shaft...

I was the original owner of this cue and it is a great player, the new owner will be more than happy with this cue.

Bump. This cue plays lights out and is a very unique and rare Kersenbock/West :) purchase this cue and you will not be disappointed
