Just found an oak Brunswick Prestige in perfect condition for $500. I really didn't need another pool table, but this will be a nice upgrade for me. It's just been sitting collecting dust for 25 years. From what I've read they play nice. Pretty stoked. What is 8' Pro size?

hmmm Looks like more of a merry widow to me.

Long shot, but maybe someone knows of a room owner that has one collecting dust somewhere? Fun little gambling game from the early 90's. Quick Poke in case someone searches for that.

bentley I received this case and the leather looks nice and the hardware and fasteners are decent for the most part, but I noticed a loose tack holding on the bottom and started messing with them and they were all kind of loose. That's because they were side wise into a piece of crappy 3/8...

It might be a little too pretty for me, but wow what a case. My babies seem right at home.

I'm guessing import. I thought it looked well-built and well-used and that's what I was looking for. I like the character a daily-use case gets over the years.

Kamui Messiest: Predator Masters Blue Diamond Kamui .98 Grabbiest: Kamui .98 Predator Blue Diamond Masters Those are just the ones I've used. For me the mess was a big consideration. I'm a messy chalker. I have to wear dark shirts when I play. Not with Kamui. I also feel that it's got the...

Yes. The rougue crystal thing is called BPPV and can be fairly easily remedied, often without a doctor. Google that or Eppley Manuever. Mine was related to something less pleasant. You don't have one ear that constantly rings or have diminished hearing on one side, do you?

Sounds like you know who to call when it's time to bet.

Try searching for Kuhlmann Pantograph

...Or other ultra low deflection shaft. New or used in good condition. Will pay today.

Dayton I just bought a nearly identical Dayton from Tommie and I could not be happier. I knew before I got done screwing mine together that it was what I was looking for. I bounced it on it's bumper once and knew from the way it shuddered that the hit was going to be electric. It is. This...

Straight pool doesn't get played much in my circles. You mean solo straight pool for practice?

I cannot sit alone in my basement and run drills. It's just terribly boring. I just want to play the game. I'm the same way with golf. Anything more than a warmup on the driving range bores me. The closest I come to practice is playing the ghost, and I rarely do that. Sometimes I will...

I think it looks nice. Solid wood. Nice joinery. There's probably $20 worth of hardware on it.
