You are correct in that typically the shelf depth does get shallower when you make a pocket smaller - however when Mark rebuilds the rails, he modifies the subrails such that the rail sits slightly more on top of the slate to provide a greater shelf depth. Mark Gregory can probably elaborate...

Yes I can certainly share my thoughts but it will be only my subjective opinion. If I'm playing daily then I can run 8 and out occasionally in one pocket - if the balls are pretty open. I mention this because my opinion at my level might be different than someone else's opinion who plays at a...

Thanks GoldCrown! It is breaking in very nicely now. Banks like a dream with the slide disappearing. Side note: the gold colored masters chalk barely even shows up on the cloth.

You are welcome. Glad I could help. Make sure to take some before and after pictures! - John

How to Install a Brunswick GC Light With the light on the floor, mount a 1x4 along the entire length in the middle of the light. Then screw in 3 plumbing flanges into the 1x4 in the “appropriate” places. I mounted mine evenly across the light because my studs were in the wrong place in the...

Did the same thing with my light and it worked out great.

Yes the color is camel. Gold masters chalk works the best with it. I did stick with the 4" pockets. As for the angles I'll let Mark speak to that as I'm not really sure.

Thanks fastone371. I really like the ball return as well. I feel they are very quiet.

Perfect Pocketz Review So before I get started, I need to let you all know that I am not receiving any type of compensation for this review. I received my rails back from Mark Gregory this past Monday. They were well packaged and arrived in great condition. I unwrapped them all and set them...

Deacon, I sent you a PM a while ago but never got a reply. Are these tables still for sale?

Scottjen26, I will definitely provide a review complete with pictures when I get the rails back, get it all set up and hit some balls on it. I spoke with Mark and the rails should be shipping out this coming week. Needless to say, I'm very excited about getting my GCIV back in operation...

Artemis play really well. Hard times Billiards in Sacramento and Bellflower, CA both have the Artemis in their pool rooms. Personal preference I guess. I suggest you play on all 3 kinds to see which you most prefer. Another thought is to replicate the playing conditions of the pool hall where...

Ok I've spoken with Mark, disassembled the rails and packed them up. Going to ship them off today. Specs I've requested are: 860 Simonis - Camel color 4&1/4" corners with 4&9/16" sides Artemis cushions I play mostly one pocket so I feel pretty good at this point on the above pocket sizes. Camel...

I play with a z2 s-tuned with a Predator soft tip and love it. If you are uncomfortable with a closed bridge on your current z2 then perhaps a pro taper would suit your needs. Personally, I feel the s-tuned feels and plays better than any other shaft out there. I just bought a second one as a...

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I'll give Mark a call.
