A loose fit on the pin isn't a problem. Many will try to convince you it is, but a cue doesn't need to be tight on the pin, it just needs to be tight on the joint face.

Thank you all for the kind words. @Still want to shoot was outstanding to work with, just a perfect customer.

Fire the 'mechanic'.

Thank you, Dan! The black is Mexican royal ebony. It was a pleasure working for you in the cue.

That is why it isn't a drill. It's a game or a challenge that has little value in practicing pool. A drill is shooting the transition from the 5 to the six a bunch of times from a bunch of angles.

A perfect example of how inane most pool 'drills' are. This drill consists of of four extremely simple shots and two that range from somewhat-kinda hard to kinda hard. If you want to practice what you should have trouble with, get rid of the first three balls, they are only there to waste...

Hmmmm....What screams, 'Christian Virtue' louder: Rusty charitably 'liking' a lot of posts in his belief that it brightens people's day to see that their efforts were noticed and appreciated (he's posted this reason, or similar in the past). -OR- A dude who bought a jump cue called a...

I've seen a few very old cues made from white oak. There should be no problem, per se. Oak is a very strong and stable wood. Both species are not horribly far off of hard maple in density. The problem with oak is that it will look like you went to a house and cut balusters out of a staircase...

It's definitely possible that they also never bothered to learn how to use it. A good starting bore is necessary for accurate cutting unless you have a true gun-bore setup and a very rigid machine. I generally bore as deep as I can, even though it isn't technically necessary in most...

Holding by hand is for amateurs. The proper way to hold it is between your legs, nestled up next to the valuable threesome.

Where have you seen comments about being a sucker for buying a gun drill? Gun drills are widely used in industry when a long, straight, medium-high tolerance hole is required. I believe that at 10xDiameter a gun drill is suggested when drilling steel. Wood, being much more prone to bit wander...

What did cuetec say when you called them?

CF is actually a pretty weak material in many load cases.

Pretty much all epoxy is fully cured after 72hrs. The 5-min, 1-hour, 24-hour ratings are based on a percentage of full strength. If the epoxy was still liquid or very pliable after days, it is either bad or you didn't mix properly (ratio or not actually stirring enough).

Sure, but most of these people aren't discussing Valhala, Star, etc. cues. They are talking about Kittycues and Mess. I won't get into the argument about whether shaft technology is better, but there is nothing about a production butt that is better than the custom offerings. When you talk...

What did the manufacturer say?

Absolutely. The cast is great, Ed Harris, Dennis Farina, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Helen Hunt (she is fantastic in it, especially if you've read the book). Also it marks Newman's and Joanne Woodward's final screen appearances.

Wrongo. The low paying jobs are always for teens and the poverty class. Eliminating the poverty is done by going to true socialism...and nobody gets luxury items. Increasing the lowest paying jobs eliminates the middle and upper middle class who buy things like custom cues. Szamboti's were...

Maybe, but tough call. I think the Newman enthusiasts are divided into camps. I think there are many who love The Sting and Butch Cassidy, but probably won't watch The Verdict. That said, if you want a great viewing experience, watch the mini-series, 'Empire Falls' and the movie, 'Nobody's...
