Im not a fan of those lights at all my friend.. with your spending I would definitely be getting a diamond light or a perimeter light but if thats the look you like you do you
What is considered a Soft Break though? Is that up to the Ref to decide? If he gets a certain amount of balls, up table (or whatever the rules say needs to be done), then why is it still considered a soft break? I am just trying to understand. Is Soft Breaking all based on opinion? Why not just have set rules, which none are based on opinion alone?
That’s the issue..it’s so simple to say ok the eye test says thats a soft break so you get a warning and now we monitor your speed for the rest of the match if gots below a certain number it’s a foul. So I agree the rule is to erroneous and can easily be fixed with an app we all have on our phone.
I think there are restrictions in place in some countries about alcohol advertising. I think that means Matchroom would not want them as a title sponsor, and maybe not as any level of sponsorship. The ban is not as extensive as on tobacco, but it could still be a problem for global viewing. Probably wouldn't fly in Saudi Arabia, but that's irrelevant now.
then don’t do it for your 1 Saudi tournament. 1) we can’t turn down any sponser 2) don’t let those slave owning women hating religious wack jobs run your sport. No matter how much money they have.
Off topic, can you try this 4 rail shot on both of your tables? Especially in the basement with the dehumidifier off? The 3rd rail contact point can be on either side of the side pocket. Feel free to move the balls around as you see fit for the best chance to make the 4 railer.
Bob this came up tonight. Player has BIH and does exactly what you are saying, putting the CB inside the pocket on the shelf to shoot outwards on a ball. Suppose while placing the CB there while the player still has it "in hand", he drops the CB in the pocket and it scratches. No ball is touched. Is it a foul? We were split at the pool hall. I said no foul.

So, he will continue to break as soft as possible, just so the rules allow it. And, there should be no rules that are based on subjective opinion, in my opinion, lol.
They appear to be recut v-points. Not difficult, but it does require an accurate and precise setup for consistent results.
Heavy duty equipment is likely a requirement, like a milling machine and highly repeatable tapering setups.
It would be neat to see a video of a cue maker doing points like this.
I wonder how long cue makers have been doing these types of 8 point cues, or any type of points that needed recuts in the points. They just look really neat to me. I just wonder how old this cue might be.
Anyways, I would love to get the cue refinished. I imagine it would look really beautiful, with a high quality refinish on it.
Here is a video, that I recently did, showing the cue, and showing how bad the condition is. Seems like it was really abused, but I do not know.

I actually really do not know what the woods are, but I assume Ebony, and some type of a Burl, with Maple veneers, in the longer points. Love the look the Maple veneers give the cue.
