WTB shaft for John Nemec cue

I hope I am doing this right.
I have a beautiful full splice cue made (I believe) by John Nemec, and I’d like to have a second shaft for it.
A few years ago I tried to contact John directly but was unsuccessful. Then I went blind for about a year, had corneal transplant surgery and now can see again, so I am back to my project.
Can anyone advise me how I may contact John, or recommend another option? If it helps, other cues I’ve owned and enjoyed include Scruggs, ‘90s era Joss and Schon.
I am actually not sure exactly what joint pin I have here. Anyway I really want another shaft, mainly to extend the life of the one I got with the cue. I bought it second hand.
I would deeply appreciate any help.
All the best!
Lee

Edited to add-
The advert when I bought the cue listed the joint as “3/8x10 big-pin joint”
I’ve no idea what that means or if accurate.

I think I have one with black collar. It has a slight movement when rolled. Been trying to contact John for over a year, no reply. Assuming he no longer makes cues since he moved. Your pin looks like 3/8x10. Try turning one on yours. It may be modified otherwise.
 
Many thanks for the replies. Most of all I hope John is well. I’ve seen many similar threads and not one culminating in any verified contact with him. I sincerely hope he is simply enjoying life doing other things.
Terry, I am sending PM to you.

Again many thanks and all the best to everyone here!

Adding pics for ID of the joint I have and just to share John’s beautiful work. It really is something. I hope this is ok to do here.
