My playing cue has two shafts and I was conditioning the tips when I noticed that one of the shafts, the one I rarely play, with is slightly warped. It's a maple shaft that's roughly 30 years old.
This cue has always been kept in it's case when not in use, never left in a car or otherwise mistreated. The case is stored so that the cue is never laying flat.
I checked my other cues and two other shafts have the same issue. The only thing I can think of is that my table is in my basement (dry as a bone) and perhaps moisture or humidity has taken it's toll.
Just wondering if there are steps I can take to prevent any further problems.
Thanks.
