I agree I think this is the true test. What does 25 bucks get you nowadays a couple gallons of gas.. might be worth a try on some shafts that you've written off.

I was expecting to see something like this.
Success! My shaft is straight!
What's the name of the other tool?..

I'm not sure but if they're $25.00 I'll take a thousand. Think there's quantity discounts?
Seriously though... this looks like a great idea for a tool and as soon as one of my shafts decides to bend, I'm buying one.
Hey Dave hope the world is treating you well... I have an Audrick but that looks like a dogleg... Handle Section is Amboyna pretzelwood or something...
I have straightened shafts with this method before but without your tool so I know it can work... My question is do you think you could move the warp out of a butt with your tool???

Meucci should include one of these tools with every cue they sell.
Uhhhhhh.........................no I'm not going to say it.
I have a warped Meucci shaft that I have never had any reason to spend any time to try to straighten, It will be my test shaft when my tool arrives.
I use a piece of self stick Velcro... the loop part of course.
I was expecting to see something like this.
My shaft is all fixed now.... Thanks java

Stay away from my Lucasi if you do buy one.
Does your electronic store Lucasi need some straightening?
Bring it up to the hills, I've got a blow torch and a meat hook>>
When we're done we can play some 9-ball>>:smile:
It looks like my radaitor tool.
Snap on fall off. I'll have to try it. Radiator hose removers cost a good bit by the way.

you would be suprised who has this in there tool box.
There is some work into this. the cost reflects the polishing time in these. There polished smooth so they dont scratch or cut the shaft.
If you dont want one dont get one. the negative posts are getting old find someone elses sale to bash

I received mine today. the inside of the hook is flat from the stamping process for about an 1/8th of an inch or so. leaving a corner or an edge if you will, where the flat spot meets the radius. I truly expected this to be circular....smooth round polished...
Because of this I am not going to grind it against my Meucci shaft as I had planned to originally.
I will wait to leave feedback here and on Ebay until i use it and film the process and the results.
In the mean time, does any one in the Denver area want to donate a shaft in the interest of proving or disproving that if you drag a metal bar along the length of a cue shaft with the force required to flex it enough to take a warp out, that it may or may not do more harm than good?
