    Glue to use and tips for a predator ferrule change.

    What glue do you cue makers use for ferrule replacement for predator shafts? I have a 314'2 that needs the ferrule replaced, I already have some Tomahawk ferrule material en route. I have the required tools and know how to make my own ferrules fit right as I work as a machinist. I havent done a...

    LD shaft

    I had one of them along with two Ultra X LD's. In my opinion it is an okay shaft, not quite as LD as a predators or OB's equivalents. They are made of 5 pieces glued together, four of wich are visible. The taper on the Pro X is rather nice for a conical taper and it feels great in your hand...

    Difference between hits?

    The tip is the most important factor in a case like yours. From what you wrote, I would highly suggest trying out a Zan Medium+ tip. I have one on my precat and it gives that shaft the perfect balance between sound and feel. I cant stand the hard *tink* sound that hard laminates make on impact...

    Frost pissed off the Lion, discussing pool etiquette

    ^ Thats hilarious :thumbup: I like Alex in every way, he is a great player, a strategist and a generally nice person to watch. This is no exception, nobody can listen too long about getting rolls and lucky shots. The ball rolls like you hit it and Alex sure knows how to hit a ball. Sharking...

    Having fun again - Cuetec Fusion shaft

    Thanks for posting the update :smile: I really enjoy reading about equipment, too bad that this review are is totally abandoned and if you even think of saying "shaft" in the main forum, you better be prepared to face everyone smashing down on your view of things :grin: Nice that it works for...

    Product testers wanted, new Jump/Break tip SURE SPC

    Oh, I completely missed that post with the picture :eek: I take my words back, its not a reviewers fault that I didnt read everything posted so far. My bad, I apologize if I poked someone in the eye with the previous post. It came out with a little too negative tone on my behalf :confused: The...

    Product testers wanted, new Jump/Break tip SURE SPC

    It's a shame that so many of these product testing events end up the same way. People receive the goods as promised but then refuse to do a real review on it. Or just say on one line "its an okay tip that looks funny." That doesnt help much if you are trying to decide wether or not to buy one :(...

    A little update

    There is no need to stress over comments that are basically * I told you so's*. Dont let those words get to you, and most certainly dont start arguing about them on public forums. It makes a man seem cocky and ignorant :( Try to keep a humble attitude even when a few individuals state something...

    A little update

    I am glad to see you back on the forums :) You shouldn't feel bad about letting the whole pro speed stuff go. It becomes very clear for the vast majority of us to realize that we all cannot ever play like the greatest champions. Pool is a game that cannot be forced to improve eternally, it has...

    Predator REVO Limited Edition

    I require pictures, lots of them :eek: If you happen to have any production shaft, a 314 for example, could you please take a picture of both shafts laid down on a table side by side to show the taper of shafts? The other shaft gives a better understanding of taper difference as it provides a...

    Strickland's thick grip

    Anyone have a recent picture of his cue? I have seen the warspear wrapped in tennis wrap a few months back, I wonder ig he has still found a way to go more over board with it :grin: I must admit that I enjoy watching him play world class pool with all that weird equipment he seems to like so...

    Practice with higher deflection shaft

    ^ I too prefer the 1st gen shafts out of all predators. I play with a precat that I found a few months back from my local dealers storage. I was amazed that I found one, unchalked and with the original price tag still attached. And got a really good deal on it too :wink: Ontopic: I play and...

    Predator tip silencer pad replacement - voids warranty?

    Tip silencer pad is only there on the newest 3rd generation shafts, the previous models dont have anything like that. Your shafts look like older model predators so no worries there :)

    SS360'2 review with a few pictures.

    It has been a little over two weeks since I got my new and shiny BD SS360'2 United joint from Seyberts. I now feel like I have had enough time to write a little review for you to read. To start off, I will say that I had high hopes from other reviews that I had read before buying one myself. I...

    Welcome to the forums :thumbup2: I cant guess the maker but that rosewood is beautifully figured :bow-down: You seem to have found some upstanding wood for this cue. Post some pics for us to see when it is finished, so far it looks gorgeous!

    NYC -- Slim pro taper laminated shafts warping

    Welcome to the forums :) How much roll out you have got on your shafts? Wood is a natural material and it moves around a little due temperature and humidity. My shafts are well kept and still most of them have a tiny bit of roll on them. Straightest shafts that I have are all 12,75mm with a...
