    Build Up 5/16-14 Compression Shaft Insert To Fit Inside Diameter Of SS Joint Collar???

    I have a couple nice shafts that I have acquired over time that have smaller diameter wood "nipples" than the original shafts that were made for one of my custom cues. Could a wooden sleeve (collar) be made that would fit and be glued over the current "nipples" and then be cut down to fit...

    DIY Homemade Custom Hand Bridge

    I was trying to teach some beginners how to play a couple years ago and they were having difficulty making a bridge. Using my MacGyver-like skills, I thought of making them something using some moldable plastic pellets that I had stashed in a drawer. This was a prototype that I made in just a...

    Took The Old McDermott Out For A Stroll Today

    I bought this C-14 model cue new in 1985, when the D-series cues came out. I was playing with my second custom Richard Black cue at the time and I wasn’t in the market for a cue, but my old boss at the pool hall where I worked as a kid was a dealer and I was able to get it at a super-low price...

    Cue rubber bumper vs cue no rubber bumper

    I have never owned a cue with no bumper (i.e., original Brunswick Hoppe), but I have banged around with several and it seems that they have a different “hit/sound” than cues with bumpers. I ordered a cue from Richard Black, back in 1978, and originally asked for a Hoppe design. He told me not...

    Convert radial or 3/8-10 drilled shaft to 5/16-14

    How difficult would it be to convert a radial shaft or a 3/8-10 shaft to 5/16-14? In my mind, it seems that it would be a lot easier than what some of the cue wizards on here do with a lot of their other repairs. Is it as simple as plugging the hole, re-drilling it, and then putting in the...

    Ebony-Nose Maple Bottom Sneaky Blank

    Where can I get an ebony-front, maple bottom, 4-point sneaky blank? I have a project in mind if I can find one. Then I will need a cue maker to do what I want with it. Nothing fancy.
