ChalkGate Definitive Answers

This makes me think the tip shaping devices that puncture deeper in to the tip may cause crevices that will hold chalk longer and cause more frequent skids. Just a thought.

I don’t understand your thought here. The skid is caused by chalk on the CB (or OB) not on the tip. I guess if you have tons of excess chalk on the tip you might get “extra” thick chalk marks - is that your point?

Carom table hierarchy for serious players

Gawdammit! Tell um you mean it!

I do recall the place I beat the rails at was delayed opening because the owner was required to install sprinklers over each table.
Not sure if that was because of the lights, or the electric tables.

When I played with you in that room it was 2 owners ago.

An electrical circuit would be run for the heating if the whole idea is a go.
I asked the owners and they said heating the slate is not necessary because there is cloth out there now that is fast enough. I don't understand it either.
I sorely miss a 3C table.
Hopefully there's flexibility there because no heating on a current quality billiard table is like economy tires on a sports car.

Speed isn't the only factor. Humidity and temperature also influence playing conditions.
