I would believe that, I ordered a league cut table in 2007 from Diamond. Aaron was my contact at Diamond, and I would call once every three weeks or so and check in on the progress. Like what Korsakoff stated in the other Diamond thread, Aaron asked me if I was sure I wanted the bigger pockets...

The crew at Diamond get irritated if you order anything other than Procut. They will have lumps of debris put under the cloth, to get even. :geek:

I love Gold Crowns...and Valleys, and Diamonds. I have owned a Diamond 9ftr since 2007. I have bought 2, 7 ft Diamonds and one Valley in the last 3 years. So I guess I love Diamonds more, and yes a lot more. Even if Diamonds are a fad Everybody is doing it. Everybodys doing it. There's a lot...

I am also retiring with in two months. I have a three week vacation and a minor surgery then a month of sick time to recover. So...I basically have three more days, been running a crew of 30 and from this point forward I will only need to keep myself busy. Welcome back, I live in Colorado and...

I wish I could help, not much of a case collector. Nice case, I will bring the post back to the top hoping it gets more eyes on it.

I was able to visit with Bill last spring at a tourney, I am 6'2" and was looking up while talking. Bill has not shrunk with age, but I sure have.

I have a sneaken suspicion he will be getting rid of the pockets entirely. Carom Bola :cool:

Filler is likley to terrorize the best players for many years to come.

I have been wondering if Bucktooth is still with us? I met him once at a small pool hall in Gilroy.

Stevie was a well loved player in the Denver pool scene. Died young and unexpectedly. Piazzas has had several tournaments dedicated to Stevie since his passing. It’s been a big success.

I had some great times on creeks. Crazy fun.

I think I will practice that. Not the shot...rather sliding the sword into the sheath. Badass.

Probably not much. But maybe, for a conversion cue. :giggle:
