More Kiel wood.... The pic of the brown shaft Poolhal6 posted is what the shaft I used looked like. Just a beautiful dark brown that was flawless looking. I am still torn about getting one from Pat. I don't know where he gets his cue supplies from, never asked him. I just like what he...

Kielwood I played with one of the Diveney Kielwood shafts for a few hours and liked it, though I would have had it modified down to a 12.75 mm if I had kept it. I still might end up with one in the future, but I am interested in one of Pat's LD shafts that are not laminated and pure maple...

Have any of you used the new Pat Diveney LD shaft? If you have I would appreciate hearing your thoughts.

Confused Are the 4' FA8 bulbs for a smaller bar box light? The ones referenced on the Diamond web site are 8' long and available at a local electrical & lighting store.

Poor responses. It is a sad state of affairs that the internet and many forums are misused. It allows the spineless, the coward, the liar, and the general low life dip stick to run their suck with out any proper response. All you can end up with are meaningless back and forth dialogue that...

Different racks I have a 9 footer in my garage, it has in floor heating and is 28'x36'. I have several different racks and use them all. They include a heavy duty wood rack, Magic Racks and a Bronze Delta Elite. Using different racks helps me learn how to break with different racks I may...

Try this I have the same bulbs in my self built light. I plan on writing the number down and going to Home Depot or some place and finding an LED replacement, even if it means changing the ballast. I am replacing all of my over head shop lights, house lights and 36' Toy Hauler trailer...

Ok for me. I break with my Diveney Lake Salvage shafts when ever I go to one of the local dives and play in a tournament on a bar box, as I don't like having a bunch of cues exposed to the drunks. I don't break with the 2 laminated LD shafts I have, a Meucci Black Dot and a OB Classic, both ae...

Yes "Joey in cali" turned down my Dymonwood break shaft for me and did a good job. It goes on my Diveney jump/break cue. It was hard on his bits and I am grateful he did it. He extended the taper and it is much better for me now and I can jump with it now and could not before, thanks to the...

Hate them I hate long straight in shots as they reveal my lousy stroke. Don't like extreme cut sots and off the rail shots either.

Lathe? I would think a quality lathe would be the most accurate way to determine if a cue is straight. I just eye ball the cue and check the joint fit. I eye ball picture frames and other things, the human eye is very accurate. I have played lots of pool with a less then perfectly straight...

I like it! As we all always knew, poking a ball on a hole with a wooden stick makes us feel good. It does not matter who you are or where you are from, it is a hoot. I wonder what tip and LD shaft they are using............... Now if they would each get a rifle and send a bunch of those sick...

Ya got me I have a bronze Delta 13 that is good and a wooden Diamond rack and Magic racks and will eventually order some from Outsville. I try to keep cloth, balls and racks clean. I use all of the racks to get an understanding of how they perform. I think a person is wise to use the kind of...

Thanks guys I have one that was loaned to me to try. I thought maybe the low deflection was my imagination. It is a bit over 13mm and if I keep it I will send it back to Diveney with a butt he made me for a little better joint fit and have it made into a 12.75 mm. Pat also said he is making...

Are any of you playing with a Kiel wood shaft? If so, please share your thoughts.

Why? Why does Earl have a better chance if they play on a 10" table?

Good stuff ! The young players, lessons for them and league and great pics are good stuff. But, knowing there are 4 more whipper snappers out there that will soon be capable of whupping me on a table makes me smile!

Several I have 2 shafts with PoolDawg 8's Milk Duds, one with a Black Kamui Soft and one with a medium Talisman. They are all good tips in my opinion. I often wonder if break cues and tips are not over rated for all but the top tier players and that ain't me. I think of all the great...

What? Jus when u think u know some one is grounded and on track in life, they jump out of a perfectly good air plane on purpose! What the hell?

Smart guys! Just reading this thread taught me some new stuff on how to keep the balls racking tight!
