Hey folks, I just got a table that I am refurbishing and I'm not sure what it is exactly. any help is appreciated...slate is three pieces about an inch thick. I will post some pics of it as it was set up before I broke it down later today.

I just bought what I think is a gold crown and I could really use an expert's eye on in.

any recommended mechanics in the Austin area? I looked thru the directory and didn't see one.

I'll give you fifty bucks to deliver it to me in Austin TX

where?

Is there an agreed upon great table for this price range?

I hear ya its raised wood grain, but why wouldn't you just sand it down and burnish it smooth? I'm truly seeking enlightenment here, I am not very experienced. I am unfamiliar with the idea of sealing or finishing the shaft with anything. seems like anything on the shaft would make the feel not...

bear fat. if you know you know.

why does this seem odd to me? I like my cue shaft to be sanded smooth to about 1000grit at least and left un sealed, just raw wood. this give the best feel to me. when It needs touched up, I will repair any dents with a drop of water to expand it flush and then re sand it to get it smooth gain...

I got to check out the embassy fast eddies last week, it was great! I'll put bananas next on my list. I am right in between SA and Austin so Skinny bobs is quite a drive but I plan on checking out their tournaments coming up in September I think.

Where are the good rooms in Austin/San Antonio or in between?

San Antonio Fast Eddie's has like 40 tables

^ we were giving it a chance.

I totally agree that the color change was a minor mistake (that may have been worth trying) in a swell of great things that match room is doing for pool. The return to a traditional coloration of the balls is a simple fix that if implemented, would give the match room enterprise an upwelling of...

not sure but it is cool! if I had it I would have to sand it down and refinish it with some wax and give it new life

It truly is a slippery slope, in the near future it will be considered toxic to have balls out in public at all. It seems unanimously agreed upon that our beloved five ball is orange. There will always be a ball maker who agrees, and we will support them to success. This minority influence in...
