Abstract
A sanding and smoothing apparatus for pool cue shafts comprises an elongate resilient main body having generally concentrically disposed resilient radially-inner and radially-outer C-shaped members. The apparatus is sized for mating engagement with the tapered shaft of a pool cue received in close fitting conforming relation with the inner surface of the radially-inner C-shaped member. The inner surface of the radially-inner C-shaped member is provided with a suitable abrasive sanding material, which may comprise a sanding sheet or an abrasive coating.
Claims7
A cue stick sanding device comprising:
- an elongate main body having a longitudinal spine and concentrically disposed, radially spaced, arcuate arms, including a pair of radially inner arcuate arms and a pair of concentrically disposed radially outer arcuate arms, projecting from said spine;
- a longitudinal gap defined between terminal ends of said arms, and a cue stick receiving chamber bounded by inner surfaces of said spine and said radially inner arms;
- an abrasive material disposed within said chamber, whereby sliding the sanding apparatus back and forth along the cue stick results in smoothing of the cue stick outer surface.
