What is inside a CF Meucci shaft

This explains why that shaft when I tried it felt like a standard shaft, it basically is with a coating of CF on it. I would guess the Cuetec one is the same way since that one hit with a similar feel.
Looks like shoddy workmanship and a quick-fix job. Don't like it.
I didn't know any of this. So, the $90 Chinese knock-offs are just as good. For, first it was cycling, now billiards.
This thing has been dropping in price for a while...

i didn't believe it when someone said meucci cf was carbon-clad wood. the truth was even weirder apparently. wtf..
Are people really complaining about the way the foam looks? Did I read that right?
Should they have bleached it, or dyed it some uniform color? I don't think that would add any value to the item at all, only cost.

Poinos LOL , designed by Richard "Dick" Pounder
Am I missing something here because we don't have 1 solid picture of the whole shaft in half. I believe Meucci themselves stated there was wood in the top and bottom of shaft, 3" I believe and the rest is the foam like all the other carbon shafts. Fwiw, I really love the 11.85mm version of this shaft. I mainly shoot with my Revo but I also kept a Meucci CF Pro in my case too.
Can we see whats inside the Revo? Thanks
Post 28 is a revo, I don't know what thread I originally saw those pictures, but I believe there were a few more pictures as well, I couldn't find the thread though.
What is inside a CF meucci shaft
I will try to post a full length picture of the two broken pieces of the Meucci CF shaft for all to see . . . but not a priority at the moment - stay tuned . . .

I get the cycling comparison. I have a big problem with obvious fakes though. Either branded exactly or similarly to an established brand. In the cycling world there are large online retailers that have their own branded carbon fibre frames. I think these OEM’s are acceptable as they are not being sold for what they’re not.
That being said. I’ve seen decent $500 carbon fiber framesets, and there just has to be more r&d, engineering and production costs that go in to building a bike frame as compared to a shaft that sells at the same price.
What did everybody expect to find inside these shafts?
Confetti. When they burst open a nice big poof of confetti fills the air.

He is very close to being correct- there is NOTHING inside a CF shaft that will make you play better- if there was- the name of it would be PRACTICE,LEARN, COMPETE, and EXECUTE!
