    Advice Wanted On Action

    If I had 2 guess I'd say a huebler mid 80's...They had the joint collar real fat and recessed pin as shown available, though all cues didnt have it. The bumper looks close too.

    On The Hill; Hill/hill

On a porch, off the coast, it is just a matter of time until it loosens considerably...I like a table where you can play 3, , and even 5 rail shapes without slugging the ball. Im not sure You can get that on a porch off the coast, bt in...

    Value of a 25yo Joss Original?

    Ok... I'm goin with 87-88, pre-N-series, but during the time Joss had CUSTOMS written on joint. The series before the N-Series had a cue close to this one, with a different butt cap inlay. And for the fellow that says 1000 is too high, Just try to find one. The old N-5 sells on Fleabay...

    Yikes! My table ain't stable!

    If it has a one inch slate, IT IS HEAVY ENOUGH. Where the problem is, is if the table moves, it isnt ONE UNIT. The slate bed and the frame/rails need additional bracing or support to STIFFEN the table. If the Table is STIFFENED it will not move. You can add wood blocks to corners of joins on...
