Predator BK2 bumper thread

That was M16 x 1.5 after all. I printed 6" and 10" PLA extensions for that exact cue... they didn't mention it not fitting.

It's been over a year since I've been here and I was hoping more people started 3D printing cue parts (at least extensions and butts). With these extensions coming in at such little weight, I'm surprised it hasn't become a trend here. It's timely and a little costly to 3D print a 30" butt, but these 3D printed extensions are very sweet to print. 10" extensions come in under 3oz, 2oz if it's not going to be permanently attached.

Hello Cron!

Do you maybe have a 3D model of the bumper and extension for my Predator 5k4 cue (first 2 pictures from the left in post #4), I haven't found an adequate extension anywhere, and the QR2 extension doesn't fit, I even bought an extension on eBay that said it's specifically made for Predator pre-2012 cues, and that extension/bumper didn't fit either.

Thank you in advance!
 
I had a similar issue with my P2 series, in the end I just gave my P2 series to a cue maker and he just made a new thread so the Predator adaptor fitted.
So then I just bought their extensions, happy days.
Brought new life to my favourite cue.

Im interested in a printed butt extension if you sell them. :)
 
I was able to use an M16x1.5 tap on my 2010 SP without issues. The hole is a little bigger than the recommended pilot for that tap, but there's enough for the extension bumper to grab onto without issue. Works well.
