In a commercial setting for decades that coating stands zero chance of remaining fully intact. All it takes is a small area to be exposed. Your table had been storage for years from what I remember?

Roger that! Been working around aluminum all of my adult life, I know its characteristics all too well.

It’s most definitely the aluminum trim causing that smokey gray stains.

I remember watching Danny Medina practice there in The Pool Hall off Hampden in Aurora. He always had something wrapped around his waist to keep the aluminum stains off his pants. Those extruded aluminum stains from those GC’s were irritating if you were wearing light colored pants.

If an insert is going to be used here I would definitely go with a Heli-Coil. There isn’t a lot material that can be removed in this application and a Heli-Coil will require the least amount to be removed.

Give us better pics. I don’t mean to be mean, but why would you post pics with the cover installed?

Here are a couple of videos I did comparing the two with a ramp setup for one rail lag speed. You can’t go wrong with either in my opinion. When setup by a good mechanic they are both very similar in performance. I haven’t noticed the short banking, but I’m really not a bank pool player.

All this talk about about Superspeeds vs. Artemis has got me thinking about doing another video comparing the two. Both sets of my rails are about the same age (rubber wise). It would be interesting to check the rebound again to see if one has aged better than the other. I think I’ll do it...

Artemis does make K-55 profile cushions. Diamond tables have used them for years.

Jack does fantastic work! I have a set of his Anniversary rails with Artemis installed and pockets to original specs. Plays great! I highly recommend!

I have run across the same over the years. The engineers are not always right. Sometimes they are sitting at a desk and not really familiar with the application.

Thanks for the correction. I was thinking they were triple A, but that would be Tulsa.

Sounds like a great time! Maybe I can talk to the wife into making the drive from Abilene. Eat some Pappadeaux’s, catch a triple A Roughriders game also.

Did you own the room down off S. Havana? Fairly close to where Havana turns into Hampden. That was a great place!

Great thread! I never knew all those cues in the movie were McDermott D series. Love those C and D’s.
