    Predator Revo tip pad

    Another explanation for why gluing the Kamui clear tip to the Revo vault plate fails is that you need to glue the vault plate to a fabric-like material instead of gluing the hard-plastic clear Kamui clear pad. I presume Revo’s silencer pad (or the replacement Mezz IG tip plate) are fabric-like...

    Who makes 10.5mm shafts for pool besides Cuetec Cynergy?

    That's a good point. I deleted that post --- no sense helping a company's fraud.

    Who makes 10.5mm shafts for pool besides Cuetec Cynergy?

    That may be true but its more likely that years ago the smaller and weaker shafts could only handle the lighter snooker balls. Now, with stronger carbon fiber shafts and combination wood/CF shafts, even smaller shafts can handle larger pool balls. This is certainly true regarding pro taper ---...

    It took a year, but, yes, I asked and answered.

    Who makes 10.5mm shafts for pool besides Cuetec Cynergy?

    AliExpress has three models with a carbon fiber shaft that looks like wood and another that is wood exterior and CF inside. The three 10.5mm shafts are made by OKHealing, Zokue, and a no-name brand. The Zokue is a combination wood and carbon fiber shaft. The OKHealing CF shaft has a...

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    Some noted here the better hit with a wood half-shaft spliced to a carbon fiber half-shaft. The Cuelees EX Solid mentioned above with its carbon-fiber portion of the shaft at joint end was considered the best shaft ever by BigBreakSheikhYT in his post (click here). There is something to...

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    If you are interested in low deflection, sooner or later, you will have to buy or borrow two or three low-deflection shafts to determine how good your shafts are. Or let others test for you. Dr Dave's tests will give you a good estimate of the deflection properties of the three shafts. Do the...

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    Looks wise, the combo is like a wood butt/CF shaft combo in that the CF portion often doesn't look good with the wood portion. In these two photos, I don't see an aesethetic advantage to it versus a conventional wood butt/CF shaft combo. How short of a shaft could you go? If the CF is...

    Predator Revo tip pad

    You did not keep the silencer pad on the Revo. Did things work out in not having a silencer pad?

    Tip life

    So, miscueing would occur higher off the table cloth for the dime-shaped than the nickel-shaped tip (you can get closer to the cloth without miscueing with the nickel-shaped tip than the dime-shaped tip). Presuming the contact area of the dime-shaped tip to the cue ball can be larger than that...

    My bad. I read your post to mean the file type tool, Kamui Gator Grip, when you actually were referring to all file type tools including Kamui Gator Grip.

    A Catalog of Common SCRATCHES, and How to Avoid Them

    I learn pool with mostly <=3-minute YouTube videos and revisiting those videos. I blame some of my wrong understanding to that for my thinking that the most common CB rebound is it moving tangent to the direction of object ball to pocket. I learned about avoiding scratches in this video but...
