I tipped a Cue yesterday i recently got made by an above average Australian maker and was surprised to see the Brass Ferulle thickness was literally under .5 of a mm!!! It is the thinnest Ferulle wall i have seen on a Cue EVER! But it does play well and every other Cue i have had from Parris / Omin / Phoenix / Andy Travis etc etc i re tipped them all and none of them had a thin wall Ferulle like this Cue has and all were about 2-3mm Brass thickness. I cannot knock it as i love the Cue and it plays awesome but i was surprised and what is the difference regarding wall thickness of the Brass?
I remember reading a thread a while ago and Terry Davidson i think made a comment along the lines of " I always ask for ANY Cue i order for the Brass Ferulle wall to be made very thin "....... Honestly i thought they were all the same just about and relatively close to each other in thickness but now i am not so sure.
Very interesting and what do you think about this topic fellas and little things that can make a difference, the length of the Ferulle is quite average at around 7-10mm long or there abouts but has a paper thin wall.
