    Yes.. I did. there is more than one way to skin a cat. Im looking for more info. on the subject.. maybe alternates. I'm curious as to what others are doing to their tables. On that thread that I created.. Bob Jewit said that he wouldnt spray silicone on the table. why not?

    Silicone spray on table and balls

    I saw an article on the internet on using silicone spray on a billiard table and billiard balls. Anyone know where I can find this? or give me some information on how its done? maybe some info on what others do to make a unheated worn cloth table play more like a heated one. TIA

    Carom Billiards Cue builders

    Ive been playing 3 cushion with a predator Z shaft. and I absolutly love it. sounds like what you are looking for. its got a semi conical taper. but yet its very thin. surprisingly stiff for such a thin shaft. :)
