You guys are the pros, so you know Better then I. whoes willing to take It on is the question. I think MW, and a few others has figured It out, and that was close to My thinking. the dia. and the ring width really plays into it IMO. The insert is also what puts It over the top, and out the box. yes, no dought it can probably be done, but as murray said, probably better with a partial in the first place. heck if you called, might even get lucky and they might be able to tap the insert as well, then all It would be is ring work. I know they have several joint sizes they can match, altough due to the circumstances not positive on this thread type. I have a mcdermott I made a shaft for, but was the old size thread. Also these days I have no idea if they can even take It on or not, but I have seen several thread sizes, new that you can buy already tapped from predator, or their distributers.
Oh by the way the Mcdermott shaft, I made a delrin insert to go in it, and yes It's still in there after six months of hardcore breaking with the cue, and a tight thread, as that's all I use it for. Curious If anyone else has been able to get a delrin insert to stick with confidence in it staying in there? I will say It seems to produce a different hit. Not saying It is good or bad, just that the insert worked, and is holding up. I have had to replace these in other makes of cues that came with them from the maker, they pulled loose on the customers, and i had to repair them, hence where i got the idea. Just wondering who knows the trick, I learned it My own, and sure someone else has also, because it's been done before, just want to see how many of you guys know first, hint is really simple and has kind of been mentioned before on another post. i did this to the cue before the post in question was written though.
