Hello,
How straight is a CF shaft supposed to be?? I'm inclined to think they should be perfectly straight, no wobble?
Yesterday I received my 1st CF shaft. It has a slight wobble, from slightly under half a credit card thickness, to maybe a hair over a full CC thickness. It's very apparent when rolled... Is this acceptable?
I'd say it's within tolerance for a cue that's still perfectly playable, but for the money these things cost, is it not reasonable to expect it to be straight?
I'm going to withhold the brand name for the time-being. I don't want to start ripping on companies here. ESPECIALLY before they've had a chance to discuss this. Additionally, in my short time here, I believe the company in question already gets a bad rap sometimes, for reasons that I suspect are not truly related to the quality of their cues, but that's another story... I'll just say it was made by a reputable company, and was purchased from a large dealer - who, for all I know, may be an advertiser here, and/or may also be closely affiliated with said manufacturer...
Input on the expected straightness of a CF shaft is appreciated.
