Turning down a not new (2 year old) shaft.

Hi All,

I have a Jacoby shaft that I want to get turned down about .5 mm to 12.5.
I was asking someone about it yesterday, and they said that if I did that, I would probably ruin the shaft because moisture would get inside the shaft. Is this true? Does it matter how old a shaft is before it gets turned down? I had never heard of this. He mentioned that the shaft wouldn't have any sealant on it anymore, but couldn't you reseal it?

Thanks
 
My mother said I would go blind if I...I can still see well enough to play;) . Get a pro to do it and you'll get professional results.

I turn down shafts all of the time and never have a problem. If it is a quality cue, the shaft should be seasoned. I finish out the shaft with new sealer, conditioner, and wax. No worries.
