Joint ring index tooling

[Pete Tonkin]

Cuemakers,

I would like to intoduce a tool that Tom Migliore and I worked on together developing and protyping.

The tools are for measuring how much has to be cut off the face so the joint rings will line up. They work like a micrometer and every line is equil to .002 on the face. With the tool you can measure how much has to come off the face and only have to cut the face one time and everything lines up.

Also would be great for repair or building new shafts with out having to have the cue butt to make sure the rings line up.

They come in 3/8 x 10, 5/16 x 14 and radial thread sizes. The price is $100.00 each before and during the Expo and will be $125.00 each after the Expo.


Contact Tom at 914-391-3464 or qnhand34@optonline.net Tom will be at the Expo Friday thru. Sunday and there will be some in my booth to look at and purchase.

Very good idea. It's really to bad that all of these innovations for simplifying both building and repair of pool cues are coming on the scene right when I'm about to turn in my lathes and go crawl into retirement. Good luck with your sales.

Joe,

In this picture you can see the ring inlay in the butt lines up with 1

And on the shaft the ring inlay lines up with 3.5 so 3.5 - 1 = 2.5 and every line on the tool is .002 so 2.5 x .002 = .005 so you would need to cut .005 off the face of the shaft and the ring inlays would line up.

That looks really nice Pete, and at a very fair price.
Like Dick said, wish this stuff was around years ago.

Just got mine from Tom. This is one of those items, like the wrap jig, that you will not know how you did without! Wish I had it a couple of weeks ago!!
