Making a Pool Cue. 6 PT, Cynergy matching ring, 3H/3L, Curly Maple and Ebony For @tough_jungwooo

What's going on YouTube, today's video is going to be another review on the items I bought to make another pull cue. Before I start, I want to thank Nelson and Miguel for making me part of the whole family. They sent me some patches and some jump tips for me to test out. Again, thank you Nelson and Miguel. The items I got is going to be for my wife's pull cue, so let's go ahead and start off with the pin. As you can see, this is an aluminum pin, and it's just black so I can control the weight. That's why I chose aluminum. And this forearm I got from Patheter, and this is a six point with veneers. It starts with the black, you have the red, you have the orange, and the yellow, and this is ebony. And it continues on with your short point with the same veneers and the same ebony. They also sent me an extra ebony, and I'm going to be using this for the butt sleeve. And for the joint, this is what I'm going to use for the ring actually. I plan to use the maple, the curly maple as the joint itself, for the joint color. I also got these joint rings, and I'm going to be using them throughout the cue. So it just breaks up the pattern. It's pretty much going to be like a ghost, so it's going to go between the forearm and the handle, and it's going to go also to the butt sleeves. And for the handle, this is a curly maple, and I got this from Belforce. As you can see, this is all the striping of the curly maple. And I also ordered an extra curly maple, and this is going to be the butt cap. This is also phenolic, and I'm going to use a southwest style bumper on the end. And to joint everything, of course, from the forearm to the handle, I'm going to be using this. This is a 3-inch by 10, and I'm just going to cut it to 4 inches. Here's the finished product. Let's go ahead and start off with the pin. This is the aluminum black pin, and it's a radial pin. And then I did the joint as the curly maple, and I accented it with the phenolic ring. This is a quarter-inch, and it goes into your curly maple, and you have your long points and the veneers, and it's black, red, orange, yellow. And then it goes to your ebony, and it continues on your short points. And I signed it right here, and then this is a black fiber ring. You can barely see it, and it goes to your curly maple. You can see the curls. And then it has another ring here, then it goes into your ebony, another ring, curly maple, and then your black phenolic butt cap. And I put her name, my wife's name, it's Tuff Jungu. You can also follow her on her YouTube channel. And of course, the southwest style bumper. And I also tapped it to accept the Predator extension. And like I said before, my other cues, I don't like putting weight. And it just goes to a solid. So let's go ahead and do the overall length and the weight of this cue. Let's go ahead and measure out the cue. We're gonna go ahead and measure it from just the cue itself without the bumper. And it measures out just a little bit over 29 inches, but it's pretty much a 29 inch cue. And if you mate this with the shaft, and her shaft is 29 inches also, and it makes it a total of a 58 inch cue. So let's go ahead and do the weight. And it is in ounces, and it weighs 13.5 ounce with the shaft itself. And it weighs to 17.35 ounces. My wife wanted a lighter cue. That's why I used an aluminum pin, so I can control the weight. So let's go ahead and joint the shaft and the cue, and see how the fitment looks. Let's go ahead and mate the shaft to the cue. This is the Q-Tec Synergy. Like I said earlier, I try to match the ring work. So this is the Q-Tec ring, then it goes to the joint. This is a quarter inch, this is half inch, and then this is quarter inch. You can see also how I flushed it, so to make sure there's no lip. And let's go ahead and test the cue for straightness by doing the roll test. Let's go ahead and do the roll test and test for the cue straightness. And the way I like to test the cue, I like bringing the shaft and the cue pretty much on top of the table, on the rail, and I look at the tip and see if it has any wobbles. And let's go ahead and test out the joint. And the way I do that is get the cue, the joint above, right on the rail, and then you look at the tip and see how much it wobbles. So this cue pretty much has no wobble on it, you can look at the tip, and let's go ahead and test out the straightness of the cue and see if we have any wobbles on the table. And it has no wobbles on it, and the cue's pretty much straight. And a lot of people like testing the cue together and apart, so this is how it looks apart. Again, no wobble, and if you look at the pin, you can see how straight it is, and it also has no wobble. I did a brief review on the cue I made, hopefully this video is informative.
