... I have once, and only once, conceded a serious game on 3 fouls when no warning was given. I was playing in a tournament and losing to a good snooker player who was new to the country and the game and clearly didn’t know the full rules of 9b. He played for 3 fouls and got the 3rd foul but hadn’t warned me. In that rare circumstance I gave him the game and explained the rule. ...

I think a better way to handle that situation is to say to him as you approach the table on two and he remains silent, "You are required by the rules to warn me that I am on two fouls at the start of my inning," and then wait until he warns you.

The quickest path to a straight, repeatable stroke, and the best metric used to evaluate it.

Problem with the bottle deal is when the bottle is on the table the opening is perfectly parallel to the surface. Very few players come into the ball dead-level. ...

The bottle will help develop a piston stroke. For a pendulum stroke, it's no good. Also, the exercise is much better if you actually hit a ball. Otherwise, you are just working with some kind of contraption.

leather wrap labor time?

Kim Bye
4 hours sounds excessive. Maybe if he's building up the wrap groove, that does take a lot of time.
But generally prepping the cue, marking out and cutting the wrap doesn't take much time if you have the right tools.
If he's using contact cement, that obviously needs to dry and that's a two stage operation, one for applying the wrap and again when you have cut the seam.

ADAM-Japan makes more than just Musashi. The Kenbu line( as well as the Hayakawa line) is Japanese too and super nice: https://adam-ny.com/product/kenbu/ This outfit in NYC is the official dealer in the US for Japan ADAM stuff.

You made me go back abd look at my notes. Since my head injury 7 years ago I jumble a lot of things up. Names are the toughest thing. Concepts are intact. Same for my professional work, but thankfully that relies more on conceptual modeling than remembering the name of a thing or person.

Even still, you have always had these details down better than me. 👍
