Thanks everyone for the advice both here and through PM. It seems like Martin is "The Man"

I know this is usually a highly guarded secret but I sure would like to buy a couple hundred bucks worth of shaftwood to get in the pipline. I have heard good and bad about cue components so I am scared to death. I have combed the net and found schmelke - prather - hightower - rolaine - atlas. I...

I put some on a couple old brunswick tru balance house cues here and it did not last too long before it just spilt down the center. It was the first 2 ferrules that I ever did from rod and they were not threaded or capped. Just a tenon a little better than .250 if I remember right. It is nice...

I need some chalk - Hope I am not too late. Tell me when and where to send the $

Anyone happen to want to part with a set before I pull the trigger?

Yeah I am sure you guys are right. Weighing has to be much more accurate than a cheap meter. Maybe I just had to bug to buy something. I guess I throw my little money at the hygro for now to at least get an accurate representation of where I really stand.

Great info - thanks for everyone's help. I appreciate the offer John for the meter too. I think pick up one of the cheap general pin type ones for now and save my coins for a real one down the road. What do you think about those? They are only accurate to about 3% tolerance but I was thinking I...

I sure will. I appreciate everyone's Help

Hey guys, I was wondering what is a good rule of thumb in processing butt wood down from 1.5" square. I have some hard maple that I want to turn down for handles and some curly that will be handles for wrap less cues. I also have some various woods that I will be using for some Merry Widow style...

Has anyone had experience with koto wood veneers? Seems that sycamore and poplar are the go to. Just wondering.

I think I am going to try to do them on my cnc. I some 1/4 - 1/8 - 1/16 and some .020 bits. Yours are looking pretty good. I hope I can get some to come out ok.

Just curious as the best source for dyed veneers. I am ready to pull the trigger on some for some ring billets and veneer rings. Not quite ready for points just yet. Thanks

For what it is worth , I ordered some of these and they are pretty jam up http://www.ebay.com/itm/152102724290?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Is this a price for the lot? If so I will take it

I will take the balance or split them with him if you want to do it like that

Just a wild shot but price of the computer could be because maybe we could pool together $10-$20 from 20-30 people who enjoy watching her free stream to get her back up and running. I do not know the details of any of this and do not side with either but I do enjoy watching her streams which...

Thanks to all of you guys for the overwhelming response to help. Just like anything, it looks as if you have thought of every possibility and tried everything but the longer you study it the more layers you uncover. I have a good solid page of notes from all of you and I am going to whittle away...

Wow thanks for all of the input. I have not bored the hole because I do not have a small enough reamer. I do center drill then drill with a .25 bit then a 5/16. I have also tried following the .25 with a .295. I was using new but relatively inexpensive black oxide bits. I do have some select...
