Zims Rack, Nice Cue!!! Question for you though. When you shave down the pin like that to do the engraving it takes away from surface contact with the shaft does it not? Does this possibly creat a weaker connection with the shaft and a possible buzz? Why not just do the engraving on the very head of the pin like other cue makers? I am certainly not making fun of you, please do not take it that way. I was just wondering and thank you.

I have seen this done on one other cuemakers joint pins also and thought it was a nice touch. I have tried to pull the shaft from the butt with only a few threads going into the shaft and it doesn't come off. I have not noticed anything different from my pin to the standard 3/8-10 pin when it comes to construction integrity or playability.

Thanks,

Nice Cue!

The pin kinda reminds me of Pete Oman's pin. I've got an Omen J/B with a brass pin that has this type of engraving and I have to tell you it is one of the tightest/solidist joints of any cue I own ;) Good luck with your sale! :)
