You can use any material that you would normally use for a ferrule. Tomahawk, Juma, Isoplast, and Elforyn come to mind. Why do you want to replace it?

I'm glad to see you are going back through past topics and posts here, but d o you realize you are responding to a thread that is almost 6 years old?

Inserts exist, but as stated above, it is more common to cut the threads directly into the shaft. You can use a threadmill if you have a CNC setup, or 3/8-10 taps can be purchased. You can cut the threads into bare wood, or make yourself a phenolic, or hardwood (like cocobolo) insert to tap...

Joey, Yes. Here are examples from https://www.vectric.com/products/vcarve-desktop You can download fully functional unlimited trial versions - but you can't save out the toolpaths. There are free example toolpaths that you can download to test on your machine. HTH

Tom, Just wipe your cue off with a towel at the end of the night or more often if you like. CF is not porous, so chalk dust can't get into the grain or pores.

Got my second batch yesterday THANKS!! Gary

Bryan, Payment sent for 10. Thanks very much, Gary

I use Tomahawk. Others use Elforyn or Juma.

I use Tomahawk, available in white or black

Thanks Mike, but rules without enforcement are just words on a page. So we must self-enforce.

From "Rules for posting in Ask the Cuemaker" that you all skipped over: "Supply sources can be asked for, but all replies should be sent in the form of Private Messages. This protects our cuemakers supply sources from the general public. Almost no industry shares their wholesale sources with...

Guys, I've enjoyed the discussion, thank you. My question is "Isn't there a significant difference in working time between epoxy and poly glue?" I know someone pointed out the difficulty in getting a forearm core pressed through when using Titebond. I thought from previous reading, that it is...

Do the right thing This time and every time Even when no one is looking

There is/was a cuemaker about 80 miles north of me that had both a 4-cue saw taper machine and a 4-cue inlay machine. Neither one ran or ran correctly. He had a local computer whiz working with him to straighten things out. Don't know if he ever got things going. His opinions on the...

I'd like 10 PM Sent

Well all, I have been informed by BobCAD that they do not transfer licenses. I'm not sure what you have to do if your PC crashes or you upgrade. So I had to let Doug know and return his Paypal. FYI

DeeDee, That tailstock is a standard Taid tailstock - not invented or desgned by Todd. It has a tightening screw for locking it down that works just fine. YMMV Gary

I do the same thing. An old Craftsman wood lathe. I bought a Sherline (I think) adapter to screw onto the 3/8-16 pin of the headstock. It then holds a spur drive. A simple live center for the tailstock end. They are readily available on CraigsList or FB Market. Finding one with a variable...

I came across this and know folks here are sometimes looking for a similar setup. This CNC is plenty large enough to make cues. I do not know the owner/seller, though I see him post occasionally and believe he knows his CNC "stuff". So DO NOT try to contact me...

Man, I'm sorry to see that. I used to be on OB"s list of approved installers, so I could get those ferrules, but never had much demand for them in this part of the pool world. I just checked and the only one I have left was cut in half for some reason. Dunno I'm in Highlands Ranch and can put...
