This would be the approach best used I believe. Glue the forearm and points all back together. (not as easy as it sounds to get things lined back up during the gluing process) Bore it and plug it maybe 3-4 inches up inside and assemble the A back together. Personally I would not put the A back...

Honestly I believe that is the least of the worries. The damage to the forearm where the pin goes into the forearm is what really needs to be addressed. And then there's the construction technique that was previously used would need to be modified.

Hard to say without holding something like this in hand. From the pictures.....to me, it appears to be more than just an adhesive issue that has released all of the point pieces. The good news is the adhesive wasn't very good which allowed the 4 points to release like they did, in one piece. It...

You never mentioned what amount of money you feel you need for your cue. In order to sell it there would need to be a starting price. How does one know if you are being lowballed on the price if we don't know what the price is? It's an interesting piece but there needs to be a starting point...

Put a new tip on...clean the ferrule a bit...install a new bumper and sell it. If it's not beat to hell there is no reason to refinish it. The original finish and wrap tells a story.

May as well just use a 5% cobalt. Doesn't matter what you use you'll have to sharpen it. Carbide is much harder to put an edge on unless you have the correct sharpening tools.

Goggle search "pool cue condoms" You'll pull some slide on grips to choose from.

Bob, I agree 100% but I include management as part of the work force also. Every situation always starts from the top good or bad IMO. The atmosphere is toxic at the PO. I speak with my driver every chance I can and give him a tip for going above and beyond with my packages. His...

Can not tell you how many times I've ordered stuff that was sent USPS PRIORITY that made it to the sorting facility in Glendale AZ, approx 50 miles from my house, and I was thinking that I should receive it the following day........NOPE! From Glendale it goes to Avondale which is also on the...

Been using half an egg carton to hold the cue from rolling off. Just tare it out before weighing. 28.35 grams for an ounce looks good from my shop. Been using a triple beam forever but it has other uses also.

A 30$ minimum for 5 tips is a pretty smoking deal. If you look around you may be able to help out on better shipping prices and still include tracking. Keep up the good work and post away in this forum. A lot of builders/repair individuals don't look anywhere else for items that would help...

If that is the butt looks like it may need a little help. (cracked) The pin looks to be an 18 tpi. Measure the length and count the threads. If it's not a full inch sticking out, just measure a half inch and times 2.

Certainly a nice enough cue to have repaired if it bothers you. If it were me....first path I would take would be go to the original builder. Jon would know all the internal construction techniques and may have a solution. IF it needed to be cut at the A joint he would have all the specs on the...

Pred does a phenomenal marketing campaign for their products. As the saying goes... There's a seat for every butt! If you don't like the show, move along, Someone will certainly fill it.

Only if it starts out fat as a rolling pin or you like playing with a pencil thin cue! 😆

OP appears to indicate it is a wrap-less cue. :unsure:

1. define slight warp? 2. how old is the cue? 3. what is the value of the cue? (this is a 2 part question) what did you pay for it? / What is it worth to you personally? 4. Even if it is "oversize" and then re-tapered to make it straight and round again chances are you could end up in the...

Hi Mike... Hope you're doing well and back at it. ;)

I've seen it happen in PH, BRW, ebony and few other woods on occasion. You can sand till the piece is 1/4" in diameter and it may still show up. I'm not 100% sure myself why it's there but I have been told by some older experts that it has to do with the type of mineralization in the soil that...
