I need one or maybe a few if available. Can anyone steer me to where I can buy one or more?

Hey PF,
Darrin Hill makes his own 3/8 10 brass pins on a lathe. Maybe he could turn you a copper one if you ask him.
I am thinking about making my next batch of custom pins out of Monel which is a stainless/copper mix. It has a copper patina with the strength of stainless and won't turn green like copper.
Plain copper is pretty soft, you might want to consider Monel.
Good luck,
Rick
I would be interested in buying at least one from you if and when. Any idea on "when" might be? I wouldn't be in a pinch for at least a few months.
I still have over 100 pins in stock. Maybe 3 more years before I run pins.
Anyway my pin is 3/8 14.
Darin is your best bet because he can build you one pin.
Give him a PM. Hills cues here on AZ.

Ok....wasnt sure of your timeframe. Appreciate the help and I'll pm Darrin.
You could send him your cue and have him do the install too.
There is no stainless in Monel it's nickel and very hard to machine. To be stainless it must contain at least a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by mass.

How about anodized aluminum or titanium or bronze?
Why copper ?
Why copper ?
Having a native themed cue built with Ivory, turquoise and copper.
I bought 10 of those anodized aluminum pins and love em.....great for jump cues, break jump main joint and heavy forearm cues.
Copper anodized alum, perhaps ?

For that matter, you could go titanium and heat treat it to a copper color.
Just as a weird aesthetic, Ive wondered why no one has done heat colored titanium pins.
Thanks for that point of clarification Travis.
Looks like I may have found a source. If that falls through I'll be back here and contact those you guys recommended.
Thanks much to all!
Thanks much to all!
Let me know if you need one. I have an extra I can sell you.
