Shims

If you're talking pocket facings I don't know of any table that doesn't have them. Maybe a cheap aliexpress table or something... but no decent table.

It's a heavy wear point and you have to also have something there so the balls aren't just smacking wood.

Yes, I am talking the pocket facings.

Not sure why they would be smacking wood. Wouldn't the rubber cushion extend to the pocket?

Who is the best player of the last 40 years not to win a major event?

Maybe not the best of this group but George Breedlove is a guy a i thought was going to win everything. First time i saw him play here in Tulsa i thought how can anybody fade this action? He won a few events on tour and did really well in action matches but i had him picked to be an Open type player. Harriman had the chops but he was/is nuttier than squirrel-shit. I know people who tried taking him on the road and they said they needed therapy after just a couple weeks. Reynolds would have to run extra shifts to make all the tin-foil for his hats.

Being in Harriman's car Tulsa/Magoo's, was dangerous. Once was enough.

Shims

Question regarding shims.

Do all tables have shims? Or do some tables just have the rubber cushions and the cloth goes over it?

In other words if you order a table - Olhausen, Brunswick, Diamond, etc - will it come with shims? Or just the rubber, whether it be Accu-Fast, SuperSpeed, or Artemis? And how does the plain rubber behave compared to shims?

And yes, I know if you want the pockets made smaller at some point the mechanic will use shims.
