[EL Picos]

Hello, somebody know how this extension system is called and may be where we can buy?

Thank You!

That's an interesting extension method, I'm curious the name and where to get one. I'd like to try it on one of my cues.

I look sometime to find the right name for it but I never see anything, there must be different quality and solidity of model too.

I get the first name off sometimes but it's the
Larry Phillips extender created by Bill Phillips in Canada who named it after his son who passed away.
Last I heard, years ago
Deroo cues out of Canada was dealing them.

How much weight do you think is removed when corring out the handle and butt? Or how much is added by using this type of extension?

Here's another interesting extension I think these are made by NQ's Innovations here in Canada

It added eneogh weight for me to stop offering them in 1997.

If you over tighten it in the out position. It may not line up correctly again.
Some guys just have to crank everything!

I saw someone on Facebook selling this type of extension last week.

I can't imagine in what way this would enhance the way a cue plays adding this inside the butt.

I was wondering that myself. You remove some core to install it.

How did it change the hit and feel in your opinion?

In a finished Cue, it definately changed weight. Change the weight. Change the hit. The last ones I did, I planned for the difference during the building process. The over tightening by customers was a turn off.
Nat Green of Southeast Cues, put them in a lot of his Cues.

Thanks, sounds like a pretty good idea that didn't work out.

I have a friend who is a pro who plays with a cue with a Deroo extension in it who loves it so in that regard I can't completely discount it. When you play with him on a nine footer it's surprising how often he opens the thing up.

Personally, I'm looking to get myself a unit similar to the one pictured, but it's pretty much just to see how the inside is done, so I can make one myself, a bit longer and more accurate, I would use a pipe instead of a rod and I would do it with less looseness between the sliding parts, I believe that a similar longer and better made extension could still be good.
