Regarding Thomas Wayne Cues

[pok]

Hi there,

I was wandering if anyone know what kind of joint pin TW used in his southwest-styled cues. I heard it's a a"acne pin" or something but generally it looks like a flat face wood to wood 3/8x10 with blunt screw threads. Had try many shaft but just don't fit at all.

I had being playing with 1 of these cue as my main player for a couple of years with shaft badly wraped shaft (about a 1/4" off). Annoy the hell out of me initially but just get used to it. Hopefully I can get someone to make a replacement shaft.

Also, by any chance Mr Wayne is still making cues/shafts.


Thanks

I copied this from the third edition of pool cues so I am not sure it is totally accurate. Hope it helps!!
