I need one or maybe a few if available. Can anyone steer me to where I can buy one or more?

Hey PF,
Darrin Hill makes his own 3/8 10 brass pins on a lathe. Maybe he could turn you a copper one if you ask him.
I am thinking about making my next batch of custom pins out of Monel which is a stainless/copper mix. It has a copper patina with the strength of stainless and won't turn green like copper.
Plain copper is pretty soft, you might want to consider Monel.
Good luck,
Rick
I would be interested in buying at least one from you if and when. Any idea on "when" might be? I wouldn't be in a pinch for at least a few months.
I still have over 100 pins in stock. Maybe 3 more years before I run pins.
Anyway my pin is 3/8 14.
Darin is your best bet because he can build you one pin.
Give him a PM. Hills cues here on AZ.

Ok....wasnt sure of your timeframe. Appreciate the help and I'll pm Darrin.

How about anodized aluminum or titanium or bronze?
Why copper ?
Having a native themed cue built with Ivory, turquoise and copper.
I bought 10 of those anodized aluminum pins and love em.....great for jump cues, break jump main joint and heavy forearm cues.
Copper anodized alum, perhaps ?
There is no stainless in Monel it's nickel and very hard to machine. To be stainless it must contain at least a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by mass.
