    Gold Crown III Frame

    As I am pondering setting up my GC III finally I was wondering, would it make sense to improve the center frame supports. Rather than running the solid supports across the width of the table, what if you ran a support (like a piece of LVL) the long way, and then ran shorter cross members across...

    Gold Crown III Questions

    Thanks Trent, I have been looking at their website. I have a buddy who has access to powder coating and said he could shoot my powder. I was kind of hoping to find a color that was really close to the rail trim because they are in really decent shape already, but I get what you mean making them...

    Gold Crown III Questions

    So what do you guys do when all of the copper/bronze finish is worn off the castings? It seems a little crazy to replace them, but is there any way to get them back to their original state that doesn't cost as much as replacing them?

    Gold Crown III Questions

    I am curious, I kind of expected the slate to doweled, but that was not the case. It seems like it is in really great shape so I am wondering if there is any chance it has been replaced. The only identification on it was a little red and white sticker with a part number on it, but nothing that...

    Gold Crown III Questions

    Honestly I bought it 3rd hand. I do know that they came from a company in Pittsburgh that buys and sells tables from places that are closing up, but that's about all the details I got. The guy I know went out and got 3 tables from them and I paid him, so I never had any interaction with the...

    Gold Crown III Questions

    Can anyone help me out, I have been searching with no luck. I arranged to purchase a GC III and I have been unable to determine what the standard pocket size was from the factory on these tables. The table is coming out of a defunct pool hall in Pittsburgh, and I got to see some pictures but I...

    Favorite Joint Material, not that kind!

    I've had cues that I loved that used piloted stainless steel, phenolic collars, and antler collars. So I don't think it matters, but I can say that I had a capped cue ball joint on a Steve Klapp cue that was without doubt the worst feeling cue I have ever shot with that wasn't made out of...

    Your in a slump: shoot through it or fast?

    I tend to push through it. I generally just slow down, make sure my feet are right and focus on my stroke and things come around. Being a very fast paced player I find that it is really easy to drive my game right off the cliff if something is wrong, so slowing down makes a difference.

    Those still playing with wood LD shafts?

    I am playing pretty much exclusively with Mezz WX-900s these days. My preferred shaft has an ultraskin Ivory medium that I hated at first, and the other is an SIB pro, which now feels like a rock in comparison. Regardless of the tip, both shafts shoot great, low deflection, great feed back, and...

    Proud Moment at Iowa State VNEA Tourney

    I just wanted to share a proud moment I had this last weekend and the Iowa VNEA State tournament. I had my best year ever in the singles events, finishing 28th out of 609 in the open 8-ball division, and making the money for the first time ever in 9-ball, but what I my team did was what truly...
