Having problems with my cues that have Linen wraps , staying damp or just plain wet. I have searched and have gleaned , most of the problem arises from hand salts permeating into the wrap and causing the problem. Washing with gentle cleaners were discussed and that doing so , from time to time...

Thought it interesting that he would pick Bert as the protagonist to be one of the roles he picked, but he must have delivered a powerful performance. check the link. https://flipboard.com/topic/tomsizemore/-/a-UqcVvCGhQJyyZHN0FNUWmg%3Aa%3A2679760903-%2F0 Would love to see footage of what was...

Sat down this afternoon about 12:30 too watch the Duel and Appleton match. at 2:40 it was over. Won't get into who won and all but too say I saw the craziest call by a ref I had ever seen in all my years. Duel was with in moping up the match the rack had just been broken and there was a dead...

Sucker born every minuet but not concerning this new chalk. Gotta say after more that 50years of using Masters chalk I am amazed with the new Taom V10 product enough that I ain't looking back. I received the stuff a few days ago and before play, I cleaned the table a couple of times. Vacuumed ...

Few months ago I finished a rebuild on an old table, which included installation of Brunswick Super Speed rails along with HR860 cloth. Table is nice and quick with great play-ability. Cold weather has now set in here in South West Va and with the table down in the basement the temp down there...

Have finished the upgrade of my first edition Centennial 1946 model. The rails looked great and the table has never played better. I installed new super speed rails and then 860HR cloth. Table is super fast and spot on in banks and running diamond to diamond for kicking purposes. Only fault that...

Looking for the closest replacement for the Blue Circle Ball that came with my Centennial set. Have checked around and found that they are getting scarce. Would the red circle ball or the measle tournament ball be the most appropriate. Playing a lot of straight pool, and don't want something too...

The metal disks that the 3/8-16 bolt goes into from underside of the rail. The screws that hold the disk in place are loose in many spots. I can turn some of the disks and then drill new holes to take care of the problem, but there are a few that have been turned many times already and that...

Finished the dismantle of my Centennial last night. When I took another look at it today, just shook my head. There was a layer of chalk all over the rack side of the slate and caked on there heavy ,,in almost like lines ,thick I mean. Sorta shaky about just cleaning it with water to get it all...

Have just tried a new idea on some of my playing cues and it's working great. There is a ceramic coating manufactured by Mothers Auto Finishes called RMX Ceramic polish. After polishing ferrule I applied a light coating with a cotton swab and let it dry, then buffed and applied another coating...

Heard sad news of my Friend John Herke's passing late yesterday. John was a true pool junky all his days that I had known him which goes back to the late 70's when we first met. John accompanied on many outings and he steered me to many spots through out the Carolina's back when. He also was an...

There's a lot of bull in this write up, but there is also a lot of truth. Irvin Lawson at one time, was not the game, a road player ever wanted to be matched up in. He was a giant when he was in gear and many who knew stayed away. Last 9 ball tourney he played in (Roanoke Va) in the final match...

Well after trying to make do for a few years, looks like rota-tor Cuff is going to need repairing. Lotta diff between 60 and now 65. Wonder how this will work out with getting back into playing a bit.

My son left his car unlocked a few nights ago. Someone was in the area and went through about 6 cars taking what ever wasn't nailed down. He had a nice old Palmer cue that was in one of my old cases and a break cue stolen. Cue looks a lot like the one in the following link...
