I got a buddy that just bought a eXact shot shaft. The carbon fiber structure that runs through the cue is probably a hundred thousandth of an inch higher than the wood on the shaft. He’s bringing the shaft to me tomorrow for a tip clean up and shaft conditioning. When doing a cleaning should I...

Hey folks, I was asked to fix this tip, seems easy enough but the owner obviously miss cues a lot (self proclaimed). They are okay with whatever I suggest, so what I was thinking to do was taking it down to just a phenolic ferrule and putting one of pooldawg8’s milk duds on there. Maybe use a...

Is there any particular way to process a burl, like cut with the original grain direction of the tree or across the grain? Shooter 1= Stelzenmuller, Titleist conversion-Z2 Shooter 2= Bob Frey, Bacote sneaky

Does this look like a familiar bumper brand to anyone? It’s in my collection of random bumpers so I’m not sure where it came from. I’m looking to install it but can’t find the thread count. Would I need to live thread the bumper onto the butt or do they make a tap this size? Minor diameter is...

Hey y’all, first off let me say this forum is an amazing resource and has been a huge part of keeping me interested and informed in cue building. I’ve been trying to document my work on YouTube but it’s not always easy to turn the camera on before I start working. Here is my latest attempt...

Hi everyone, Working on a CF extension for a customer and we wanted it to match up to exactly the same size as the butt cap. So I had to add some finish to the CF. Doing so created some runoff on the back and the joint face. I’d like to remove the lip but I’m worried that I’ll crack the finish...

Hey folks, how surprised should I be when/if this ebony dowel explodes while turning in my MidSized Cuesmith? I got it for free and thought I could salvage some rings or butt caps. here’s a picture of both ends freshly cut with the bandsaw so you can check the cracks. Previous person tried to...

Hi everyone, I just finished my second cue build and I ended up trying to finish the cue 3 times. Epoxy base- sanded round then 10-15 coats of superglue, sanding (320 grit) round about every four coats. Every time I am getting little fragments of paper towel in the glue. Maybe my Costco paper...

I paid 7 bucks for it. I’m thinking about making it into several joint protectors. What else is it good for? Shooter 1= Stelzenmuller, Titleist conversion-Z2 Shooter 2= Bob Frey, Bacote sneaky

Can anyone reference me some measurements of the slate dowels. I’m thinking about making some out of SS, if they are not available for purchase. My table mechanic used the business card and super glue method and within a year my seam already failed. Now I got balls jumping off my table...

It really is the best glove that I have ever used. I do wish they would make a full finger or a longer finger version and eliminate the Velcro strap. However I can never get them to last more than a year. By my own mistake the first one I ordered a size smaller than what I should have but it...

Okay, once I can’t bring myself to practice putting tips on house cues anymore. What would you recommend to move to next that is a bit more challenging. I’m thinking about buying some rod and trying to make some threaded ferrules. Shooter 1= Stelzenmuller, Titleist conversion-Z2 Shooter 2=...

Hi folks, I'm looking for a cue lathe, I can pick up pretty much anywhere if the price is right. I need it to run on 110v, so I'm not looking for a giant.

I would be super greatful if anyone could stick some english subtitles or provide a translation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYv29aCJwzk
