oops..wrong thread ....can moderators please move this to ask the cuemaker
- thanks
Note that all of these questions is coming from a IT Systems Analyst who has no idea how a lathe works.. i just know it turns pieces of wood
Whats the absolute minimum equipment to make plain jane cues and shafts ?
Finishing will be done elsewhere...
Lathe and router ??.
Do i need a lathe that has indexing capabilities ?
Will be doing this in the garage and the neighbors are a bit close.. does the router make a lot of noise ?
Do i need a bandsaw ? .. was thinking of just going to a friends place and have all my cut rings/joints cut at his place
