I used a bigger motor in V2.0 and now use 2 cell Lipo batteries.

Just to show you the Portable Battery Powered Lathe isn't the 1st version... The photos show my original lathe, completely enclosed in a wooden box. What is interesting is my DRIVE system. I used a round BB gun ammo can lid to change the gear ratio to spin the cue really FAST. Of course the...

Paying each game if my preference. Most around where I live want to pay after 5 rounds. Might need to check to see if they have enough money before they are allowed to shoot (you would be shocked to know how many of these type players are in N. Florida... They don't have any money when it's...

Hater's do what that do best!

Thanks...

No it don't have a cross slide or centering chuck. (But I started designing a 3D model to add one to it) That price WILL deter buyers (and that's was the "pun" of it). I'm really NOT interested in selling them, it's way to much work for the small amount of profit. AND I'm not setup to...

I meant launching all my other 25 products I invented. I have 135 products I carry with me when I go anywhere to play pool (1/2 of my 25 products are already made and packaged...). That's 14 products in multiple colors, & 11 T-Shirts. I won't "turn on" the Portable Lathe until everything else...

The Potable Lathe is in my shopping cart, just not turned on for the world to see. Price at $800.00 (that should deter them! 😁) BUT it takes lots of time to build & test. I have enough parts to make 2-3 of them, just don't really want to. Once I launch world wide, I might develop it further.

I an't got time to do tips. My pool inventions take most of my time...

I've got 25 unique products I've invented for billiards. I've wrote my own website, setup a shopping cart, 3D modeled all those products that were plastic, fabricated the rest into working prototypes! I have some very amazing products, BUT i'm about burnt out from months, months & more months of...

That's what I thought too. I've even when so far as to source all the parts to make it a battery operated system with a cutting head (like a lathe), DC motor and all the other parts to make it "Really" desirable. But then the costs sky rocket'd to the point where I'd be stuck with low volume...

That's what I said... Until you can find a darn pencil!

rexus31, I've been in ring games that had 20+ players! It would take 30-40 minutes to get a shot! We got to where we'd bet on where the cue-ball stopped. Place a $1 on where you think it stops, closest wins all $1 on the table! I made a lot of $1's doing it...

Thanks! I though it was cool too! And it only cost me money for the Case, everything else I had in my shop. Forgot... The bearing & transition chuck cost me a very small amount.

That can get tricky using coins, especially when there are 6-10 players. I hate to say it, but some people will try and double move! (seen that happen too many times in N. Florida) Or forget to move until later, then it's can become an argument! (happens way to often) We use to use coins, then...
