Aramith Low end Billiard Balls

The balls we currently play with now have been with the table at our club house for the past 18 years, so I'm not sure what they are. The HOA was going to sell the table because nobody used it until we started a group that plays weekly.

I understand what you are saying about lessons on fundamentals, although I'm skeptical of who to look into in our area for lessons. Also I am 79 and wondering if they would be worth it at this late date. I do read pool books, watch a lot of training videos, have purchased many of Tor Lowry's videos and practice a lot. We currently play together, about six of us, and are all about the same level and have loads of fun just playing.

Thanks for the advice though, I appreciate it.

Sounds like a set of DynaSpheres makes sense for you and your friends. I’m sure they will be better than what you’ve got.

As to the instructor thing, I’d suggest posting a separate thread asking about instructors in your area. Also, some instructors will do virtual lessons.

I hear you on the age and whether it’s worth doing it. It’s perfectly fine to just be happy playing with your friends and not trying to get better. We here on AZ tend to be among those obsessed with learning, but just wanting to play with your buddies is awesome in its own way.

Longest you've seen someone hold a challenge table for $$

GideonF
At the Super Billiards Expo in 2000 or 2001 they were playing $100 a game 9b on a Valley. Nobody you’d ever heard of and everyone running out. Rail betting on “the breaker” or “the racker”.

Up comes Jose Parica and he doesn’t lose a game in over an hour. Eventually challengers stop coming and the rail disburses. Jose walks away and magically everyone reappears and action resumes.

Table Light Recommendations

About a $170 in parts and a little woodwork time. There is a diffuser on it also. It's an incredible light, so much so that someone on here contacted me about making them commercially and wanted a diagram with dimensions and parts used. didn't offer to pay me anything. Maybe I should sell them, I do have a full workshop.

Great job! The room looks super.

If they contacted you for all of that info, they were not qualified to make them commercially.
