Give it a drop of penetrating oil and let it sit, shaft down, for an hour. Softly tap the tip on a hard floor to "break" the pin from the insert. Try to unscrew it.

If you need another person to help, make sure you keep everything in-line so you do not bend the pin or beak the shaft.

You can always send it to me and I can get it apart.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks man, this finally got it to unscrew..

thanks everyone for the advice

I've had that problem before. Your problem may be worse than I ever had, but this is what worked for me...rubber gloves.

Best idea and I have done this also.

I wouldn't suggest using those can openers because you may damage the cue as the rubber my slip away from the metal or plastic that holds it.

I can't believe so many people have had this problem. I've never had this happen to me. I must have bionic hands of steel!

Do you own a unilock?? The OP has still not told us what pin he has.
 
Its not a unilock. The cue was an old one I had not used in a year I just replaced the tip and thought I would use it. After playing on the first night I had a hard time unscrewing but it got it after a couple of tries. Played two days later and it did not come off...

thanks
