what is this used for?
what is this used for?
To make 4oz shafts!
That would be cheating:thumbup:
But WE never cheat!!:smile:
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!
Actually I was wondering the same thing - but it would seem to take a lot of "enhanced" epoxy to make any difference. But WTH do I know.

i need two ounces for your shaft
balsa wood
chris , i wish that was in much smaller quantities,
i'd get a little of it from you
You'd be surprised. Powdered tungsten is HEAVY. Mix it thick with epoxy to form a paste & push it into a hole to bottom it. It'll stick to the wood very well, unlike a weight bolt that might buzz when it loosens up. No worries of trying to thread a deep hole, either. You can use it to adjust balance anywhere in the cue. Behind joint pin, in the "A" joint, in the handle from back, wherever. Cool stuff. Doesn't take much.
I'm suprised that nobody uses depleted uranium powder. That might make a cue hit a mega-ton :thumbup:

Eric,
THANKS for the explanation! It's a rare day that I don't learn something from someone here.
Maybe the buyer will divvy it up into smaller quantities and resell it here to the rest of us.
Glad your feeling better - Just take it slow!

It's commonly used is golf club heads to weight them. Kind of a borrowed technique for cues. Thanks for the encouragement
Life kinda kicked me around for a bit, but doing pretty well now. Happens to everybody I guess. This was my turn.
Post 6,999 WOW
I would think this would deaden the tone in the cue.....
Remember an old post of Ryan's some time ago. He took off the bumper and someone had filled the sleeve with lead shot. That would be the rattle snake cue.
Not any more than weight bolts imho.
Hmm... I thought this would sell quickly but I guess I was wrong. :smile:
SOLD.
