Eben, good idea! I never even thought of looking there. Thanks for the suggestion.

I have ten 5' long 3/4 inch id glass blanks that I got from a fuse manufacturer. ( on heavy duty high amperage fuses they use heavy wall fiberglass blanks for the fuse bodies on 600v plus electrical fuses.) I was visiting the factory on the North Shore and saw them and said to the guy giving me the tour that they would make great gaff handles and he gave me five of them they are black in color and heavy duty.

Why even try.........

Krispy, is that a blank? The Harnell is wrapped conventional. No idea what blank it is, but it is more like a 2x4 than a pool cue. Not sure if I could get a gaff hook into the end of the 1208, though.
