You have to make them but it is very easy. Just thread a rod or Delrin or Nylon and you drill it after it is in the cue. A trick I have used is to put a pin through the insert from the side where the collar will go. This keeps it from backing out. Nylon or Delrin are hard to glue. Aluminum or a piece of Delrin turned down to like 3/32 works fine as a pin. When you drill and tap the insert you drill through the pin. When you add the collar the pin hides it all together. Just some ideas that do work.
My Friend has a cue with a delrin insert. Neither delrin or nylon will glue. But you can take a piece of delrin and turn it down and thread it and make the female thread match in the shaft and tight and put that piece in the shaft, face it and drill and machine new threads in the delrin insert. Its not really that hard to do. Ive used phenolic and done similar with good results. Good Luck.

That's a very good and ingenious solution to the glue resistance problem. Rambo used to do the same thing with his pins. The glues were barely able to glue wood let alone brass and wood. He would insert the pin and then drill a hole in the neck of the joint to run a metal pin through so that the pin wouldn't turn. This would then be covered by the collar behind the metal joint.

About how much for one of your shafts for a Huebler with the nylon insert? My original shaft seems okay but i don't like the ferule. Do you do repairs?
I've been known to do a repair, here and there.... $90 for a shaft matched to the butt of your cue, ringwork and all.
He's been known to do a fine job with them, too...
Thanks for the response Ryan , i haven't made up my mind yet , but like the poster below says thats a good price.
Not trying to be rude; but if you have the money, you would be stupid not to take this offer.
