Then...WHY are there so many hacks....if this work is like scrabble? Pictures have been posted for more than 4 years...and nothing has changed in this industry to date that you can put a finger on...why not?...because to tell you the truth, I think you'd be lucky to find 1 mechanic out of a 1,000 that even cares about doing this kind of work, that's why. It's not fast enough, costs to much to get started, and would still need training....besides, all they really care about is the fast dollars anyway.

Sadly those are very true words not just in table mechanics, but in most service related crafts or trades these days. very little pride in workmanship left in this world, just how quick can i make a buck.

That's called "instant gratification" how much, and how fast can I make me some money today;) that's why this has become a disposable market, no one wants to fix anything anymore, let alone, take the time to fix things right;)
 
Glen, trust me, you don't want any of Bobby playing pool.
I really don't want to get in a pissing contest with anyone,
But I've been doing spec's on my sub-rail work for a long time.
You absolutely showed me how to your glue system work,
along with the French cuff, and I'm more than sure other things
as well. Glen, you can take credit for everything, I think that's maybe what this is all about. We need to work together, not I I I me me me.
I make mistakes everyday, but I know how to fix those mistakes.
I'm not the best, nor do I ever want to be known for the that.
I'm just putting my time in, and doing the best job I know.
I learn thing from Bobby, just the other day I called John Burns for help on and antique table, but John don't take credit for his help.
Now, this shit needs to stop....I do know that much.

P.S. Wish I was as smart as Mr. Bond on here, I'd blast your ass. Lol

I don't know, maybe you guys don't really want to straighten out this industry, maybe you want to just carry on the way it is...so you can keep complaining about the "hacks" that work in your area's...I don't know, maybe I'm wasting my time here, all I know...is that with or without you guy's help, I'm always going to be doing what ever I can do...to improve this industry until being a "Table Mechanic" means something to the buying public, to the room owners, and to the manufactures in this industry...and to the players of this sport.;)

Is there music playing behind you as you post.
Glen...The issue is your a bully. You have spoken to numerous people about me and Bob and it has gotten back to us. We both were there in Chicago because we believed all the stuff that spews from your mouth. If I had a buck for every idea you tell me is going to make 100,000.00's of dollars I would be rich right now. You need to take credit for everything in the pool world. This is evident in your posts on the main forum. Everything is I ,I ,I and me ,me, me. You do this work to satisfy your ego most of the time. If I were hiring a mechanic to work for me you would be last picked. Not because of lack of knowlage and skills but you can not show up on time and you camp out at each job. I love what I do. I take great pride in every table I work on. But I have a morgage and a family to feed. So yes I am an INSTALLER! Sorry it had to come down to this but I am tired of the BS.

What numerous people are you referring to? Because I've never said anything negative about you or Bob...and that's a fact...so YOU really should get your FACTS straight Pat. Furthermore, I only take credit for what "I" do, which is my right...wether you agree with it or not...is your problem, not mine. I give away work all the time, as I don't really want to do it most of the time, because I've been working on pool tables for the last 28 years of my life. I have a relaxed job, if you have a problem with that...once again, that's your problem...not mine. You don't pay my bills, and I don't pay yours...right? So, what does my scheduling of work have to do with yours? What difference does it make if I "camp out" at each job I do....to you?

My comments about changing this industry are in the way of what are YOU going to do, when hacks start taking over delivering the same pool tables you make a living from....because they're cheaper than you, and the manufactures don't really care....cry about it to the manufactures, or educate the public as to what's right and wrong with this industry, and if they want the job done correctly for the money they're being charged...they should insist the table seller insures that the installer knows what he's doing when he brings that table out!
