Too tight and sometimes sqeaks

[Michael Webb]

For Cue makers and Repair people:
1 Gallon of Rapid pad plus 1 pint of boiled Linseed oil, drill, bore, tap. Pour it in, wait a 15 to 20 seconds pour it out, let dry and re-tap. Finished. This does a great job in sealing the threads to help keep moisture out of the threads and eliminate squeaking. This will also work with Wood turners finish and boiled linseed oil. The ratio is 8 to 1. I hope this helps some of you.

Thanks for Sharing Mike. I have a method that I use, but I may just give that a try.

Boy, that'll be a mess . That hole is only less than 3 inches deep.
Add some thinner there, you have yourself an in between cuts sealer too.
