    Brush On Finish Water Based or Epoxy

    Chris, Have you used a epoxy seal coat below the water based finish before? I know you can build and build the water based finish, but are you better off doing an epoxy seal coat first? Thanks again for the info.. Spencer

    Brush On Finish Water Based or Epoxy

    I did a search and there are so many different threads and conflicting opions, on finish that I thought I would ask for help. I am a new cue maker just getting ready to finish up my first couple sneakies to test out my tapers and to test out some basic finish. I would like to eventually be...

    joint pin and glue questions

    Rick, Thank you very much for the time you put into this post and your explanation. You shared a lot of good information and I really like your choice of joint pin, but I was unaware that anyone other than Mike Bender or Omega DPK used that pin. Is that pin available through a supplier or...

    joint pin and glue questions

    glue relief Thank you for your post, I was wondering if that shoulder / locating barrel wouldn't block the glue relief and cause a larger concern with hydrollic pressure and blow out. I really like your suggestion of grinding a glue relief since that would allow you to use a little more glue...

    ~~ Josey Sneaky Pete - Pristine Condition!!! ~~

    It looks like an awesome cue and I've always wanted to try out a Josey sneaky, but did I read your post correctly that the shafts were taken down to 13.25mm?? That is larger than what I usually like (I usually prefer something in the 12.75mm range), but if these were taken down to 13.25 how...

    digital caliper

    Thanks for the heads up... I am waiting on delivery of my new hightower lathe, and when you pointed out the deal on these calipers, I had to buy a few myself. At $10, I won't feel so bad if one ever gets dropped or lost or anything. Are they pretty accurate and reliable for an inexpensive...

    Molavia Tip Input???

    Molavia Mike, I play with MS Kamui (tan) tips but I know a couple people in town that either play with Molavia or have played with Molavia and they seem to be a pretty good tip. One of my friends Tyler has a Molavia on one of his cues, and he is an excellent player and had good things to say...

    your favorite ring work!

    favorite ringwork I have always liked the fancy ringwork that Mike Bender does on some of his really high end cues. These are not my cues, but just the ringwork makes these cues stand out. dakota

    lumber for turning squares...

    thanks!! Thanks guys, that was exactly the feedback that I needed. I was concerned that if I got too small, it would leave zero margin for error and wouldn't be large enough for certain parts of the cue. I appreciate everyones feedback and help. Thanks, dakota

    lumber for turning squares...

    I am considering buying some larger maple lumber that is being sold for guitar luithiers and cutting it into turning squares for maple handles or forearms. My question is what is the minimum thickness. I know that most times I look for 1.5 inch squares, but would 1 1/4" be large enough? I...
