I have no idea. There is a way to check shipping logs but its been awhile since i have looked that deep into a company and cant remember exactly how to do so. I will look into it for you.

The cue is a k=11. Completion sports of new york owned them at that time. First time use of the name was in june of 1995. Pretty sure the cue is from around 2003 or so when Donald spetkar was the president of competition sports.

I do understand about the gain of salt.

It's a big world out there. And a lot of time has passed and there's been a lot of cars that were made. And there is a ton of Top Gear episodes to go through to find that again LOL

Yes sir the Rambo car I forget which episode is on but it's in one of them. If I ever run across it again I'll come back to the thread and be more specific

National Billiards News September 1966. Who do I contact about getting an X-ray done. Been thinking about asking my dentist to get one of the 3D X-Rays done on a pool Cube I don't think they'll go for it

One things that I always threw me off all three blue books state the rambow cue has four mother Pearl dots in the bottom. Mine in the majority of others have six. It also says that cue was named after a car. Because I love Top Gear I know there was a car produced named Rambow

That would be awesome. It's hard telling if these are the same cues but here's a picture from the front page of a 1966 magazine.

I suppose they could just be glue relief holes. But neither cue have any steel in them besides the butcap bolt. ultimately it's not worth cutting the cue in half to investigate any further. But both cues do feature similar construction techniques

I'm not talking about the screw I'm talking about the pin that holds that piece of wood in place it looks like a black circle

I purchase all my stuff from shallac.net not sure where it comes from

This is what it look like by first go around but I made some mistakes and had to send it all back down

Not done with the cue yet. Going to Rambo it up with some water slide decals and some more lacquer. I honestly didn't even take the time to wet sand it out so still work in progress. It got a bit cold outside to be spraying lacquer in my garage but spring time's coming up and I'll have it...

I say that because it appears to be a wood to wood joint that is pinned. I suppose they could have used aluminum or brass in the joint but they definitely didn't use any steel to weight the cue. I can run a magnet across the whole cue and nothing hits. I can't say that about all my cues...

Shellac mixed with everclear is far less toxic to spray than almost anything else looks great and is cheap and is among the best clear coat to use to protect wood from moisture according to a study done in the late 80s. And to top it off it is super easy to restore

Can't agree with the cue being low quality. The way it is constructed is pretty good. No metal was used in the joints. Very well made

I sprayed Amber tone shellac as a base that I used Nitro lacquer over that

Im going to have to redo the wrap the cortland I was experimenting with came loose. Probably just going to be all black hard laid silk. I have a predator shaft laying around that I'm going to refinish for it.
