Hey black balled, the corner 5 system on a 3 cushion heated table is about 2.8 diamonds off (on the first rail) from the same system on a 9' red label diamond. hahaha

Asking for a friend.... what do you system boys do on a red label diamond? Cry? hahahahaha

Well that's taken out of context. He was pro speed in his prime! I actually had a bet with a local player about 15 years ago. I'd say he was maybe a 630-640 range at the time, and knew every system known to man inside and out. I'm a 571 now, and maybe I was a 560 then. I never knew any systems...

Visualize it. I'd put my kicking ability up against anyone the same overall speed as me. I don't use any diamond systems.

As ugly as that thing is, I think it looks better than the ones from the 90's and on.

It makes zero difference. A player will improve the same on a bucket table or a tight table. I'd even venture to say they might improve faster on a bucket table because they can be more aggressive with shotmaking and position.

Great job! The room looks super. If they contacted you for all of that info, they were not qualified to make them commercially.

The good thing about commodity drop-ceiling light panels is the egg-shell grates are also commodity. HD sells them. They can be added to any 2x2 or 2x4 LED panel. That's why Diamond/Littman/even old fluorescent GC4 lights are so good, and Perimeter/Arena lights blind everyone. $20 at HD...

I've never seen a pocket like this outside of a Valley, where the facing angle opens up instead of funnels down. It does make sense for coin operated tables and lower skill levels. I'm a 570, and I wouldn't mind easy equipment like this at all. Its good for the ego:)

I don’t understand which side of it you’re on? Keeping the nit rules or explicitly making them non-fouls.

I actually think the WPA should re-write the rules to explicitly state: "If the winning ball is pocketed and it is obvious there is no impending scratch, the players are permitted to remove balls from the pockets to expedite the racking process for the next game." Players have done that since...

Mr 3cushion from the other thread.

WOW! That looks amazing! Did you put new laminate? Or paint the existing? How did you keep the sights?

Good video. I watched the whole thing. Where is Bill?;)

Forgot about that. That's def my first choice for a newbie!
