Are there 'black' le Pro tips? No... and yes... sorta. If you care to ask Dr Google search 'Donnie Anderson tips' as a start. Dale

What about Seyberts? Isn't that who he does repairs for? Dale

I wouldn't quite bet my life, but purty sure it was lacquer sanding sealer. Dale

Google to the rescue: https://www.google.com/search?q=usb+to+parallel+port+adapter&rlz=1C1GYPO_enUS761US761&oq=usb+to+parallel+port+adapter&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.40960j1j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Dale

Semantics strikes again. As others have said, something like an intentional foul is not cheating. Dale

+1 on the wooden inserts. I had a couple antiques myself with them. IMHO - that table is an absolute gem. Dale

Newsflash: the conversation you are having with yourself is not about inside vs outside english. Cornerman freddie has described the phenomenon clearly, concisely, and correctly. FWIW - ask any C- or better 3C player, we use inside that is running all the time. Consider the opening break...

The Pro Taper - which should be called the 'no taper' :) was in fact developed for Balkline which requires the most precise cueing of any game. Most of the shots are very 'soft' and super close to the CB Dale

You are joking right? Dale

FWIW - I was aware of Todd's machine. Fine it is for profiling butts or shafts in one direction but not practical to expand into a fully functional CNC. The BB6 at this point seems to be a CNC lathe DIY kit with few instructions and even less "support". Ya' think maybe he and the XZERO guy...

Thanks a bunch - I really appreciate your offer. Dale

My comments were in reference to pre 80s. Wasn't the 90s the era of the notorious 'flex shafts'? Dale

No. Moochie shafts were whippy for decades prior to LD shafts. Dale(who was there)

It helped me:). To be fair, the web site now implies you have to build the lathe yourself. And my interest is in the CNC, so tapering is not an issue. Assembling all the bits and pieces from scratch is definitely more of a project than I want, but i don't see it as a deal breaker. Thanks a...

Anyone out there know anything about this offering from fleabay? https://www.ebay.com/itm/TAIG-BB6-pool-cue-lathe-40-TRAVEL-with-FULL-CNC-TAPER-CUT-SYSTEM/162838771329?hash=item25e9f27681:g:gQQAAOSwpP9Y5rzS Of course I would prefer verified facts but will listen to rumors that have the...

A. great lathe for cuewhacking - and such a deal 2. 1 or 2 parts a month... let's call it 20 per year for 40 years... In 30 hours?... Dale(who is arithmeticly obsessed)

Well. my Bank game is not what it once was. but if you want to engage in a bit of math competition, I am willing to bet my house. If we limit it to Probability, you can get long odds. And I will even throw in the tutoring in remedial reading you so obviously need. Dale

Let me translate that to English for you. He was lucky to get a bye, NOT, he won 9 matches in a row due to luck. Dale

Thanks for the info. Hopefully my local library card will enable my access. I know they provide links to a gazillion and more such DBs. Dale
