I have searched the internet for CF blanks with a joint diameter of .855 (McDermott) and cannot find anyone who sells these. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a customer (read friend) who cannot pay over $400 for a Defy shaft and I would like to help him out. Thanks guys.
CF Blanks with .855 joint diameter

I was looking at Rhino joint at 21.5 mm.Thats pretty close..8465 About 200 for the shaft and no work involved
All of my blanks are .848. Like Chris said, the plug could easily be increased .007! .0035 per side?
My caliper needs a battery. How thick is .0035. A sheet of paper or a human hair

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that ping.
Basically, like a thick beard hair. If a customer can feel that enough to complain about, I'd find a different customer.
The fingernail test is about 4 thousandths
The Jacoby Black that came with the Mcdermott cue I just picked up fits nearly perfect and measures .860 at the widest and .857 at the narrowest points. It is perfectly flush except for a tiny over size at what I assume is the widest point. but then again these are very small variances and who knows if the McDermott joint is as close to round as the shaft is. The shaft is easy to measure unlike the butt side due to the direction of the taper. its easier to measure the widest part than the narrowest part. I measured a piece of paper from my sticky note pad at .004
