Where can one obtain G10 epoxy rod that some of the cuemakers are useing to make the G10 pins out of ??? Without having to buy it off of Ebay in 4 foot sticks for $50.00 bucks ???
 
To get a piece of the G10 rod big enough to do ferrules from that website is still going to be about $50 bucks for a 4 foot length, I can't find it in any shorter lenghts. Thanks again for the help Murray.
 
How many ferrules you need I have some cut up
Also check McMaster-Carr another industrial supply site besides MSC
Enco is another
 
I have a Jacoby jump cue with a white tip that I thought was G-10.
What might it be? It does seem both finer than the phenolic tips that I have.
Maybe just my imagination.
 
Terry,
Would that happen to be a WHITE DIAMOND or is it the as-installed Jacoby tip?
I understand that the WHITE DIAMOND is a proprietary formula.
I'd be interested in knowing exactly what it is.
Have you had any experience with the tip not staying bonded?

Seems like they can to pop off over time with CA. I have experienced this with one that I installed, and I know of others that have too. I think if I installed any more of them I would use a different glue. Possibly something with more flexibility. I don't get a lot of requests for them so I haven't tried epoxies or poly yet.

Yeah the material whatever It is, does not feel quite the same as phenolic to me, It has a slightly softer feel to me, and seems to grip the cue a little better, although I've seen them pop off during a miscue. I tried one for a while never had a issue with It miscuing & popping off, but then I didn't hit as far to the outside as what I have witnessed when It happened to someone else.
