They sell in the $250 tp $400 range or so if in very good condition - sometimes you may get more for an exception.

I know this thread is about contact points
But if you use fractional aiming
You could just aim directly at a spot on the object ball
And not have to try to aim somewhere else to make a certain spot on the cue ball hit a certain spot on the object ball
Just saying…..

Yes. You aim directly at an estimated target. Like I said previously, you determine the stick alignment with CPG. No guesswork. No aiming at la la land.

Watching Mizerak play 9 ball is like watching Michael Jordan play baseball.

My .2. Short games are good for bangers, clubhouse tournaments and maybe beginners
8ball 4/4 w/8
9 ball .. use 1-5 or 1-6.

That looks outstanding!!!!! Were you able to save the diamonds on the rails? Thats one thing that always concerned me, how to save them and make it look good.

Thank-you.

The table was missing one diamond when I bought it, and I wasn't planning on saving them. I printed new circular inlays out of copper-filled PLA with black diamonds inset. Keeps with the theme of the table colors. I painted the rails, then re-cut the pockets on my mill. This was the most stressful part of the build, but a brand-new carbide cutter resulted in no chip-outs. I shot four coats of 2k clear after. It worked out well, but that is 100% the part that would be the toughest to do without having a good way to cut the pockets. If I didn't have the mill or at least a good drill press, I would have likely compromised and used some kind of overlay before clear coating. Happily, I didn't have to resort to that.

I like tournaments with regular games and double elimination.

2am and split pots.....

The pool league in our area requires a minimum of 2 tables. Working men won't play if matches run late, they have to get up Early for work.

Allison Fischer has said that she looks at the point on the OB that is farthest from the pocket.

The Formica can be worked and painted the same way as automotive body work is done. My GCI had several cigarette burns, so I sanded it, filled the burns and dents, then painted. I'm not a huge fan of wood grain Formica to begin with, so I was happy to have something different.

Bump.

The rhino or newer rhino must. Just as good as the "name brand" shafts, at a fraction of the cost. In fact, i like my rhino must more than the new model pechauer rogue. The must is the slickest cf shaft i have tried. The must also comes with a quality japanese leather tip, unlike the first rhinos resin-like time crystal tip that feels like you have a piece of stone for a tip. Its the first shaft that i have stuck with the factory tip and not swapped.
