What are you trying to accomplish?
hi Renegade 56, I'm trying to make a stable straight full splice cue. Coring a cue with an A joint is a little different than a full splice. imo.
I think aluminum or carbon fiber tubes are more stable than a wood coring dowel. This is the reason I tested this idea. And the aluminum tube is approx. the same mass as the ebony I removed. I like heavy cues, I play with 24 oz and a cg of 22". I also have several barrels of wisdoms(mistakes).
I'm just having fun making sawdust in my shop. Best regards,
Ernie

If you're going to post in a forum for display and/or advice, you may want to tone down the flash a bit. If you don't have an adjustment to do that, try stretching a small piece of fabric across the flash to diffuse it.
Of course, if you're using your phone, that may be more difficult. Then you'd need to increase the ambient lighting and kill that flash on your phone.
At any rate, interesting work and pictures. Thanks for sharing.
Well it is different, I remember playing with aluminum k-mart cues as a kid.
