Exactly what I got from his vid, and what I'm working on. Deliver the tip to the CB target is paramount. If you can't do that, then there's something else needing work. Pocketing the ball isn't the goal. Delivering the cue tip on target is the game.

Yes, I'm that anal about torque. Torque measurment is a dynamic measurement, not a static measurment. Meaning the fastener must be in motion when torque is achieved. If that's a fact, then if you try to check/audit torque, the fastener must be moving. You mentioned Prevailing Torque...

I'm glad you made your comment. I went back to what I said and of course there is an argument. In the scenerio I described: Running down a bolt with a power tool then coming back with a click wrench to finish it off. If the wrench clicks before the fastener moves using the above process...

I believe all major cordless brands of Drill Motors come with a clutch. I'm happy with using a drill clutch, if the mechanic comes back with a torque wrench to finish the bolt, rather than relying on the crude clutch on a drill motor. The clutch on a $200 drill motor will not clutch out better...

One of the most solid tables Schmidt ever designed. https://aeschmidtbilliards.com/product/9-collosus-pool-table-pre-owned/

Ya, years ago I was setting up torque control power tools at a tractor assembly plant and one of the parts was a rubber clamp sandwiched between 2 metal plates, the bolts were something like an M8. The torque spec was for a M8 Grade 10.9 from some bolt chart. Not only could I not reach their...

Sure hope that fly doesn't move while I walk around to take the shot.

Don't know anything about that stuff other than a quick search. IMO the player not only needs something durable, but needs something that doesn't allow slip in any direction. Urethane is an option with high abrasive resistance. Problem is, its hard to find "off the shelf" 1" or 1-1/8" tubing...

Wondering why nobody Clocks their CB in this so called discussion?

Really not following this. The only way to "check" a wrench is with a Torque transducer. A fish scale (spring scale) or whatever is a force gauge vs torque gauge. What's the math for the correction?

I believe the Cobra says 12ft/lbs. Not sure if he has factory info or its his gut feeling. I asked Verhoeven the same question and they couldn't answer it. Or wouldn't for some strange reason.

I think the slip is supposed to come "before contact" and is the whole point of releasing the cue. The concept is to let the cue "Do The Work" I don't disagree with you that these 2 techniques (Slip Stroke and Stroke Slip) are complicated and can't promote consistent cue delivery without...

Example?
