    Shaft template.

    I have a template I had made to cut shafts. It has two templates, one is a schon and the other is somewhat like a predator. It is made out of aluminum and was cut using CNC (had a machine shop make it) I've never used it, my intention was to mount it on my metal lathe to cut shafts. But I...

    Another question.

    This isn't really about cuemaking, but you guys know it all..lol.. Anyhow, I bought my Dad an airbrush about 2 years ago, he has yet to use it. He makes tons of wood crafts and he is always spray lacquer from cans. I have some automotive clear coat for cues, and was wondering if you can use...

    Predator

    My brother has a predator cue. The cue slid down the table it was leaning on and when it smacked the floor the ferrule broke off. My brother told me to just pop another ferrule on there, but then, it wouldn't truly be a predator anymore. So I was wondering if predator has a guarantee (Doubt...

    Cue finishing

    I am looking for someone who would be willing to finish two cues that I build last year. Life has been real busy the last few months, and I haven't had the time to 'learn' how to finish a cue. Basically, I want to play with my own cue this year in league and I know I won't have it ready time...

    Ok, what do you think of this?

    I have a Grizzle lathe, 36". If I use a bore head it really takes up a lot real estate. What I was thinking, is, if I took a drill chuck that fits the Tailstock, cut off the chuck, and mounted a live center just off center to give me the taper I need. Think that would work? Anyone willing to...

    Laminated Handles

    My brothers girlfriend works at a cabinet factory. She can get tons of maple and oak boards. They are about 5/8" thick. If I glued these together, would they work well to use as handles? I'm using solid maple now, but I would think this would work even better and cheaper :D since I get the...

    What's the point?

    Of me keeping my cue companion lathe? I completely stopped using it since I got my big lathe a year ago. I don't bother even doing tips on it anymore because I'm not happy with it's performance when compared against the big lathe. I'm considering selling it and replacing it with another...

    Lathe not working :(

    I have this lathe and yesterday it worked fine... Today it doesn't. I checked the two fuses in the back and they seem fine. When I was done yesterday I pushed in the Stop/Reset like I do everytime. Today I go outside and turn it to the right it pops back out and press the start button and...

    Rings

    I have a cue I am making, it's the first time I've made a cue with rings. After I turned it down, there are small scratches in the rings from the router. How do you get rid of these? I tried sandpaper and it didn't seem to work. Here's some pictures, not sure if the quality is high enough to...

    Cue Holder

    My Dad is retired, he has been making butterflys, Parrots, Blue Jays etc out of pine for the last few years. He has 100s of them. I asked him why not make some of those cue cueholders, that same one he made me a couple years ago. It fits in my cue case and I use it twice a week for league to...

    Routers

    Anyone ever try the Rigid router? They are considerably cheaper and it appears you can change the brushes real easy. http://tinyurl.com/exjeu Glenn

    Rear Chuck

    I need to purchase a Rear chuck for my lathe. Can anyone recommend a good place? I know of a couple, but I was wondering if there were others. I will also need a coupler, will I have to machine that myself? Thanks, Glenn

    Setting up a lathe

    I bought a lathe about a month ago, and now I am trying to figure out how I go about adding a router to it in combination with taper bars. I know porper sells them, where else can I go? It is made in China, it was made in 1997 and looks "Exactly" like the one Grizzly sells. Except it's very...

    What kind of ferrule is this?

    I have a Huebler I need to replace the ferrule on. I want to replace it with the same material that is already on this cue. Any ideas? I tried sanding these abrasions out but to no avail. Thanks, Glenn

    Half Splice

    I know most cue makers use a mill or a router to cut these. Some use a table saw. I was trying to figure out how they do it on a table saw? Can anyone explain how this is done? Maybe some pictures of their jigs... Thanks, Glenn

    Warped shaft

    I am repairing a snooker cue, it has a slight warp in the shaft. The wood behind the brass ferrule chipped...hence the repair. What is the best way to get this thing spinning true so I can cut to make room for the ferrule? Second question... What is the purpose of a brass ferrule. I don't...

    Lottsa wood....

    I have a stock pile of wood. I am not so certain it is any good though. My Dad got A LOT of tongue and groove maple from a gym floor that was torn up from a University in the early 80's. It has been stored for the past 20 years in his garage. I cut some up for you to view...tell me what you...
