Shaft straightness has been an issue with other carbon fiber shaft suppliers (prior to your release).
What are your tolerances for Hex shaft straightness?

From the input I've gotten back on them so far, they play very similar to the other carbon shafts out on the market. We have not encountered any of them being crooked.

i am a player
how does it compare to the other LD shafts
carbon fiber or not??

Every one of the shafts we've had have rolled straight.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, "straight" is often a relative term with cues.
Fortunately, acceptable tolerances in manufacturing are common and quantifiable.

Hex Taper / Tolerance Info

I'm posting a diagram of the taper, done in 1" increments on a 12.5mm shaft.
I have since checked over all the shafts again and came across
a few of them that were too crooked to use.
They were anywhere from .030" - .100" out.
The rest of them were from 0 - .020", which I am considering good.
I hope this helps answer any questions.

Also, I apologize for the delayed response. We had an emergency
evacuation yesterday, due to a wildfire in our little town of about 1,100 people.
So it has been hectic. Personally, we suffered no damage, but a few buildings
and homes were damaged on the edge of town.

If there are anymore questions let me know and I will do my best to answer them.
