Pool Cue Joint repair 

thanks for the kind words 😁

Thanks appreciate it 😁

thanks

Thanks 😁 appreciate your feedback

wondering the same thing..looked like a lightweight oil..coulda even been ca glue, then activator..idk i’m just spitballing researching all i can before i make my first bench lathe..awesome video, not to mention i just purchased a cue from ars billiards, shipped straight to my door in south alabama! great customer service..this video confirms what i already know to be true..they are the real deal over on the west coast!

ca reply on a couple comments down says the brown paste is pitas true grit polishing compound…if i remember correctly

It's linen phanolic Thanks 😁

The original joint ring was off. Not much you can do about that without cutting it off and replacing it. I tried the best I could with what I was working with. 😆 Phanolic joints are very strong and long lasting. Especially compared to wood threads. Nothing beats the durability of a brass insert though.

😮

thanks, its Pita True Grit Abrasive paste

Thanks seems to give a good finish

😲

Pita's true grit abrasive paste

Total boat flex epoxy

@@arsbilliards thank you !!

Yes it is

I slowly pushed the plug in so the epoy and air could leak out.

@@arsbilliards I started drilling a small hole through the joints inserts when I built shafts. The hole will prevent hydraulic lock, also the epoxy will seal the back end of the hole when inserted in the shaft and you have to drill and bore the size for inserts or to cut threads.

@@playpool12fyao huh 🤔 I've done that before but for some reason it didn't cross my mind to do that here 😆 luckily the hydrologic lock wasn't too bad.

Looks like 3/8 x 10.
