I just want to know which method is commonly employed by cuemakers in the A joint. Threading the tenon, using only a pin or threading the tenon and using a pin too?

I know that using pins leaves room for rattling problems in the future... any advantage or disadvantages of the 3 above mentioned procedures?

Also why is the tenon cut from the forearm and sometimes from the handle? What's the effect of vee points and inlays on this? Any difference and effect from these two procedures? :confused: :confused: :confused:
 
What JC is saying is that you already asked this in another forum (ept),

What's the difference between joining a forearm & handle using a metal screw and without it? Some cuemakers use a screw while others are advocates of no screws... which is better and what difference does it make on the hit? And also what effect does doweling instead of cutting a tenon on the A joint have?

Thanks dude... yeah I read somehwere in this forum about you and qblder havin a discussion about using screws. If screws aren't gonna be used, how would it be done? Also what's the difference between the tenon being cut in the forearm and tenon from the handle for the A joint?

then when I offered to show how a threaded tenon is done, you suddenly back-pedaled. Your questions above are so similar that it gives your true identity away. Are your sub-contracted CMs still having problems with the A-joint that you can't claim to make a cue perfect.

Ed<--- shares JC's suspicion that ((VH)), PoolMidget, pogiboy and Q******t are one and the same.
 
Duh????

This forum is for "ask the cuemaker" and I don't see anything wrong with my question.

I don't know you guys
 
I heard that Q guy uses 3/8 16 on his a-joint and the cues he had made so he could stamp his names on them are buzzing like giant bees.
 
If a cue has a buzz, there is a problem. It doesn't matter what pin you use. If it is done correctly there will be no buzz.

I agree... btw Michael I've seen your site you've got great lookin' cues. Excellent work!
