Been a long time since I posted here but I am in the market for a used 8ft pool table. I can't afford a Diamond but have been looking around for some GC. I see a lot of GC3's discussed but not much on GC4's. Is there something with the 4s that people try to avoid them or are they just not as...

Got the tips and they are awesome for the money. Thanks

Heck no that is why I posted the pictures! I did check them tonight and it may be more of a shadow than anything. I am going to check them again tomorrow when I am not so tired and roll a ball down the rail and make sure. I ain't no's mechanic that is fo sho. But I love learning the technique...

Much appreciated. However, these are simply sections of cloth folded glued and then glued to the pocket. No staples or plumbing strap. I hope they hold up. If they don't I will just do them again with the scraps that I have left. I don't know how you stretch cloth but if the way I did mine is...

Ky. I can figure up shipping if you would like when I get home. Packing it is my main concern to prevent breakage. Where would it need to be shipped to? I will cut you a very good deal since I don't plan on using it.

My light for sale. PM me if your interested. http://picasaweb.google.com/underwood.martin/BilliardLight?feat=directlink

Also sent 21 for 2 hard and 2 medium. Thanks

Not really looking to become a tech but glad to see if I need to that I have a possible career. When I see the covering jobs here and then look at local halls I figure I could do a better job (albeit slower) and be happier with it. Can't say I am disappointed with this attempt.

Yes I noticed that also. I missed that flaw due to the curve balls the Simonis was throwing me that the Velocity did not. I know better next time. I am definitely pleased with the stretch and the straightness. Thanks to all the mechanics on here that post pictures, tips, and how to's of their...

I left the logo on there intentionally. Kinda liked it. It is very difficult to see when playing or just glancing at the table. Man do I love the 860 on my home table though. Thanks for all the feedback.

Steepleton. I bought it used but I think it is called the playmate. Not a very high quality table but does job.

Here are the pictures of my second recovering job and the first one with 860. I did Velocity Pro the first time and it was a completely different experience this time. The quality of the two are very different. Simonis is not as forgiving but I learned a couple tricks this time. Very tight...

Well I started my table today and I can honestly say that getting my rails half way decent with 860 has been more than a challenge compared to Velocity pro. I am not sure yet that I am satisfied so I am taking a break today. By the way never buy a Steepleton table. I don't care if you can't...

I will buy the DVD when ever it comes out and if it is time for new cloth then so be it. If not then I will watch it and prepare for when it is. Like they say, "Good things come to those who wait". And I don't have a choice in this matter so a waiting I will be. Hopefully have GC or Diamond by...

Yeah I found some very key posts. The funny thing is the items I discovered on one of those post was in line with what I thought would be a good way to start an install. Very similar to stretching large pieces of carpet. I still have some voids that I need to fill before I am comfortable knowing...
