OK....take your time. Don't mess up your work.
I really do like the cue, I think it was a smart buy in any case. It is obviously a quality cue IMHO. Some people don't really go in for the unknown stuff. I love the mystery.
.
joint is threaded and 120 thick
ss joint is also 1inch long
shafts 1" ivory ferrules .500 and .510 and 29 9/16" and 29 5/8" long
the butt is a .800 at the end of the stainless joint.....on the MONEY lol
then at 826 at the back side of stainless joint
top of wrap on wood 1.015 (a joint)
bottom of wrap 1.214
bottom of buttcap 1.230
buttcap bore hole .480
buttsleeve is 1.98 long with collar is 2.3" long
i tried taking screw out with my screwdriver.....and first try...no i need better for certain, dont want to slip and damage anything
so i pick the bit that fits perfect and stick in my impact drill.....i hold down firmly and carefully, and pop it three times gently and no dice....so shes glued in and i'm not breaking it thats for dam sure.
i dont know something about the cue, and the guys description just sounded honest....said people said bla bla bla he didn't know for certain, bought it in 78 and the shafts are richard blacks..
i hit some balls and both have pads....the cue plays very well and has a little better pop than usual i find than a typical ebony cue.
plays very well and is very nice. not sure if its been refinished but i think it has its pretty shiny and there seems to be some of the dust from the ebony in the maple pores.....
it rolls just a very slight taper roll on both shafts and butt rolls perfect on table, my lathes a got dam mess so its not going on there right now.
thanks for not being a jerk like deputy dawg on facebok
