Is there a difference in ball racks, I seen some from a few dollars to over a hundred dollars. Which one is the best.

I'm looking for a cue rack that is either cherry or mahogany color. I prefer a solid wood one and can hold around 8+ cues.

I'm not putting it down or saying it's bad in any way, just that I feel it's over the top for moving pool table slate. I rather to use the shoulder harness moving straps, most of the weight is on your shoulders and not on your back. Man up has nothing to do with it, working smarter and safer is...

Why would anyone pay $1150.00 plus 50.00 for shipping for the OTLVISE, when Otterboy's shoulder moving straps are around 45.00. You have to move a lot of pool table slate to justify the $1200.00 price tag. Plus the shoulder moving straps can be used to move other items, where the OTLVISE has...

Its a Vitalie pool table.

I got a billiards table that has carriage bolts in it now and wanted to know if I can replace them and go with a hex head bolt so I could tighten the bolts up better.

Yes, I have watched the YouTube video of Brunswick slate mining and producing video.

Thanks for the slate catalog, only thing it's in Canada and I'm not. Does Brunswick's Billiards sell just slate or other manufacturers that sell slate?

Would I just go to a billiards shop for getting new slate, is slate sold by name brands like Brunswick Billiards or other brands.

So the original holes in the slate does not matter, because the holes are for attaching the slate to the frame of the table. The table is a Vitalie and has massive support beams. Do you have any idea price wise what slate might be for a 4x9 table. I will post pictures once I am on my desktop...

So when buying slate should not worry about country of origin, just the quality of the slate. Also, the holes on the table, how do they drill and counter sink the holes to match the tables holes for the screws?
