Radial Pin in Sleeved 3/4 inch long Ivory Collar - Flat Faced.

I like the solid hit of Ivory coupled with the flat faced maximum contact between the butt and shaft. Great feedback!

Good Cuemaking,

Phenolic joint, 5/16-18 piloted pin, modified for quick release, but I recently built a cue for someone with the coarser 5/16-14 pin and flat face that I really liked the feel of, so that's probably what's going on My next personal cue.

For years I played with a 5/16 14 stainless steel joint. Last couple years I have gone to a 3/8 10 phenolic.
 
Thanks everybody for the replies...I think I'm seeing a flat-faced trend here. Keep em comin!
