I got mine yesterday. My new Pro + with 3/8x10 and original OB joint collar is at 104 gr. .

You can make a harder tip out of a triangle if you let it soak longer + press longer and with a stronger force. And let it try completely before installation. My experience is that it is impossible to press a triangle too hard, I did some out of triangle for breakcues. I think that is what...

What you experienced is exactly the issue. Even the best layered tips some times have inconsistencies pretty early after installation. This is one of the reasons why I have chosen the modified single layered tips as my no. 1. Try the Kitechs, try other milkduds, and take that one you feel the...

Yes, I can also confirm.

Yes I think so, I tell you my experience because I make also my own milkdud and played many different layered tips before. (The layered tip that is at the highest level of quality is to me the Kamui brown.) The Kitech I tried also and I just can say they are great! The Kitech are in my opinion...

sure it was the tip that made you not hit?? ;-)

Hypothesis: playing the tip you're used to is much mor important than any oth... Yeah, in this context TOI and shaft stiffness is most important. :-) Talking about balance and weight, to me just the balance and just the weight, each of both regarded as a seperate and disconnected issue, are...

Hypothesis: playing the tip you're used to is much mor important than any oth... @sfleinen and bdorman who wrote it first: you are def. right! Of course it is also extremely important. I added it to no. 1) Thanks!

The sound when you strike the ball. To me a high ping is as bad as a thumb "nothing". Hard to describe: it must be a full sound.

Hypothesis: playing the tip you're used to is much mor important than any oth... Hi guys, after a couple of years playing pool billiard, playing different shafts from 11 to 13 mm, LD or no LD, differnet buts, weights, balance etc., I'm announcing now my personal theory of what is most...

Your are right, it was a LD break shaft :-) :-) :-) The capped ferrule I install also like you described. Air inbetween as well as other tolerances should be avoided, then you can have a reproducable installation result...

It's obvious. Watch the 2nd and 3rd stroke. Spin transfers, the side spin and forward roll mix.

Bought a used breaker before o couple of weeks and was wondering why it felt so dead. While breaking it had a bad energy transfer although it was stiff enough. So I decided to cut the ferrule half of the length, and what I saw was not a surprise. The ferrule was capped and the bore inside for...

I think Dave38 is absolutely right also! Also Hits 'em Hard is 100 % right! The better you glue with cyano glue the less influencing are the shear forces. But is for sure that the cyano glue is not the best glue for dealing with shear forces. Mostly there are more than 1 ways to hit the goal...

Sorry for my late replay, I was on a business trip. I Use this epoxy glue, but I must admit that I let it cure 24 hours. After 5 minutes it is still very weak and flexible, after 1 hour you may work it with the lathe, but I'm not sure. I think a phenolic tip must have the time it takes. Here it...

not really. use a medium pressed milkdud, it does stay medium. use a kamui brown suoer soft, the ones that I know did stay soft. also the Tom haye Ultraskin keeo their hardness well. You musn't think in general how you do.

OK, read the other answers. If she was a man originally, "she" is / was (RIP) in my personal understanding not a real female cuebuilder. Anybody else as a real female cuebuilder that sold her cues under her name? Seems to be no one real, isn't it?

Interesting! But beside the fact that women may work in some cuebuilders workshops: are there some "brands" or names of cues where a woman stands behind as the first responsible, creative head and owner of the workshop?

Great answer! That's it! Personally I had the problem also, and I'm sure it was not the flatness of the ferrule or tip. At same tip and ferrule material the tip was popping off after a while when using a cyan acrylate super glue. Sometime I switched to an epoxy glue and the tip never ever was...

Does anybody know if there are also female cuebilders that should be regarded?
