Hey all, I'm refinishing a GC II that I purchased via these forums and unfortunately the 2 short piece of frame wood that are at either end of the center support are missing. They are 3-1/2"x1-1/4" and just under 24" long. I'm building replacements but I can't seem to find anything that...

If my wife spend $400 on a purse I'd trade her for a cue.

I find that being charged taxes on mailed items is very hit and miss. It used to be that you you could get the shipper to declare items as a gift to avoid the taxes but these days most items get through tax free as long as they are shipped via USPS/CanadaPost. Every once in a while though they...

Excellent! Did you physically drive them across the border or have them shipped?

Gents, I'm looking at picking up a Brunswick Gold Crown from the US and importing it into Canada. No big deal but I'll have to go through the standard border stuff and since I won't be in the US long enough to qualify there will be duties payable (sales taxes really). I'll have a bill of sale...

Unfortunately "tricky" would be an understatement for getting a Pro-Am into my basement. I can't even get a full 4x8 sheet of drywall down the stairs. I'd have to cut a pool table sized hole in my living room floor to get a Pro-Am down there. I'm really surprised at how little information...

Is the Professional 1 piece slate?...I know the Pro-Am is because it's specifically noted on Diamonds website but I assumed the Professional was 3 piece because they didn't mention the 1 piece as a selling feature like they do for the Pro-Am. Modan

Thanks. I used the "contact us" page but there's no option to email yourself as well and I didn't receive an acknoledgement auto reply so it was hard to know if it even worked. Hopefully I hear from them tomorrow.

I'm Currently finishing my basement and am happy to have room for a 9' table. Since the basement will be a family area I have to work within the restrictions of what my wife will be happy to look at. I was fully expecting to be looking for a furniture style table but was pleasantly shocked when...
