Watch what you don't spoil the balance of your cue :snooker: the extra weight of the joint, might make your cue not right for you.Originally Posted by warren132 View PostWelsh Is Best -
I will be making some butt joints in aluminium in the next month or so, ideal if you are worried about the balance of your cue.Comment

What sort of weight would an aluminium joint add to the cue then?
I'm just wondering because I would like to do the same but I musnt change the balance too much.Comment

I have made production ones for Carom cues in ali, but I think making them for snooker mini butts is ideal for retro fit. The normal 1 Klik brass male is then used for the actual mini butt.Comment

Hey stan would ali be ok for a thread ? what i mean is....ali is soft what would happen if you were to over tighten your joint..? but it sounds like you know your stuff so i guess id would be ok...Not played for 3 years and itching for a game....11-3-2017.Comment

Yes Ali is soft, but I use a special anaodising process which case hardens it. This is probably not suitable for a threaded joint, but the 1 Klik has no threads.Originally Posted by warren132 View Post
