How about the screw-together joint for a billiard cue?

Huh, that must be new, haven't noticed it in their catalog before. One of
my back-burner ideas is making some canes, just have to find the right
pieces of wood.

I like this company's canes, I own several of them although I have no
medical need for one. It's just kind of nice having an inch-thick,
three-foot piece of hickory in the hand when going for a walk. And so long
as it has a crook at the top it's a cane, not a stick. ;~)
