    Back to Pyro vs. V10?

    I must be in the vast majority (Doh! MINORITY!!!), but I just don't get along with V10. I don't know if it matters, but I mostly play 3 cuhion. I sure seemed to get more miscues with V10 than with my old cubes of Masters. It is very clean, and seems to last a LONG time, but I just lost...

    Justin Bergman ?

    You are generally exceptionally precise with your writing, so your choice of "disdain" jumped out at me. I dislike, and even borderline hate flying in this "TSA and airline incompetence" age. But disdain? I know this adds nothing to the meat of this conversation, so appologies - I tried...

    You get what you pay for!

    I don't post much, but I got the distinct impression that a large portion of snookered again's post were a bunch of Chat GBT generated "wordiness" rather than anything like intelligent discussion. Could be wrong, but it seemed like Chat-bot trolling...

    Affect/Effect Your/You're

    Add break and brake to the list... None of these are that big of a deal, but my mom was an English teacher. They do jump out at me and I hear her "correcting"...

    SVB to Kick Off High Run Attempts

    I can't figure out why I read through so much of this thread, but it is kind of fun. I appreciate anything that promotes pool and enjoy watching great players play. I followed the JS high run thread for a while, but finally bailed out... I don't think there is any chance that new pocket...

    Funny pic/gif thread...

    Bugs used air ducted from the engine for heat. Until it got "stupid cold" they usually worked well. The problem is that one of the first thing VW hotrodders (and lazy mechanics) did was remove or alter the engine cooling shrouds and/or the heater ducts. Once the shrouds were tweaked or...

    The Driller!

    Really sad news! Watching Gary playing and woofing was always fun. He was always friendly and was one of those guys who you were always glad to see.

    Maybe they could let the air out of the right side tires... That might get it! (Putting the car in neutral (to save gas!) and rolling it forward would be like cheating...) bes

    List Your 2 Favorite Pool Games, In Order, and Why

    I love 8-ball and 14.1. I also like 1P and 9-ball. But given the chance and right opponent(s), my favorites are: 1) 3-Cushion (I'm only ok, but love the game.) 2) Golf on a 12 foot tight snooker table (I aspire to "average" but love the trash talk and cruel twists.) bes

    very entertaining recent 3c match

    Caudron's short angle skills are ridiculous! Sanchez is strong too! They both make some pretty touchy shots look like cookies... bes

    Unusual Schon ID

    A guy showed me an unusual Schon cue yesterday. I failed to take any pictures, but was hoping someone could help identify it... It had sharp points, but all inlays had rounded corner. The ferrules looked yellow (micarta?). The weirdest part was that "Schon" was not written on the butt cap...

    Slow play

    I quit golfing years ago when rounds went from 4 to 4.5 hours max to "often 6 hours". If I made the turn over 2.5 hours after tee time, I'd head to the parking lot. Once this happened way more than not, I quit playing. I liked golf, but waiting on morons was rough on my blood pressure. I...

    help with finding metal cables to hold a pool light DIY

    Aircraft Spruce I suspect similar stuff can be had at ACE, Lowe's, or Home Depot. The SS is stainless - which would look better. There is probably somewhere nearby that has industrial cables and supplies too. If not, Grainger's will have it... bes

    Redneck impact testing gone wrong!!!!

    For a 13mm tip, 1000psi will happen at about 205lbs. And that if if the tip is flat and 100% of it contacts whatever it is pushing against. IF the tip is rounded, the middle will be loaded to 1000psi even sooner. bes

    The Fight to Save Ping Pong...lots in common with pool

    I am intrigued by the "I have zero knowledge, but strong opinions" crowd. Table tennis and badminton are both VERY fast paced, athletic, Olympic sports. Both have national and world championships as well as national and international governing bodies. Check out some of the Table Tennis...
