Liberty Thanks, Hammy. Well, for a good lookin' ol' gal, she's pretty strong. We built a couple of houses together, and she can hold up her end of the chore pretty well. We have a good two wheel dolly and I think I can maybe I can add a plywood fixture to that, and lash the slate to the...

Libety Thanks, RKC.

Liberty Thanks, RKC. I wish the news had been better, but an honest opinion from you is what I was looking for. Even though the asking price was only $250.00, by the time I factored in all the real costs, I would have about 1k in it before it was even set up again at my place. So, I'll pass...

Gentlemen, I am thinking of buying an antique table that we think is a Liberty. It is five hundred miles from my place, so I have a few logistics problems to work out. One is the weight issue....the decision is whether to go in my full size Dodge pickup or attach an enclosed twelve foot...

Your Opinion of Brunswick Liberty Nine Footer Gentlemen, As my other related post was getting a little long, I chose to post this request separately. Are any of you familiar with the Liberty? If so, what do you think of them? I am a cabinet builder by trade, so more than likely, I will fancy...

There's another confidence booster in stepping up to shoot when you've got fifty years playing time.....you can tell yourself there isn't a tough shot on the table that you haven't made a hundred times in the past! Joe

Joss and 2 shafts PM sent. Thanks. Joe

Hey Dragon, I'm from the Dallas area and have been watching pool tables on Craigslist for the past several months. I'm not quite ready to buy, 'cause the room isn't ready, but I still enjoy looking. Anyway....they are practically giving away good used tables in the DFW metroplex. (at least on...

An Az'er has a butt for sale with a 5/16x14 piloted joint. My Joss shafts are described as 5/16x14. Is there a difference, and will Joss shafts fit on a piloted joint? Thanks for any info. Joe

Wow.....I can certainly relate to choking on the game ball. I have to fight that battle regularly. One thing I like to do during practice is just shoot with the cue ball and the nine ball. Shoot that nine over and over, and then shoot it some more..... each and every practice session. Seeing...

Very good topic. I studied that info and other similar diamond systems about two months ago. At the time, was looking to seriously improve my kicks and banks. I drew their diagrams off on graph paper and went down to the pool hall. On nine foot tables, the systems played just right. I...

As mentioned last week in a similar thread, Fox and Hound at Midway and George Bush has Diamonds. Ten or more easy eight footers and four good nines. Usually well maintained. Fox and Hound is a franchise. Table condition and maintenance varies, but the Midway location is pretty good on both...

The Fox and Hound at Midway and George Bush has about 20 Diamond tables. Mostly oversized eights with big pockets, but there are 4 nines with smaller pockets. From McKinney, go south on I-75 about 15 miles to George Bush. West on Bush about 4 miles to Midway. Left (south) on Midway 2...

Wood is strongest, or able to accept the greatest load without noticeable distortion, along the long axis of the grain. Conversely, wood will flex or distort most easily when force is applied perpendicular to the long axis of the grain. Cue shafts are cut along the long axis of the grain...

Thanks for the price info. Does your catalog specify what the materials are? Joe

Joss Thanks, srober40. Could you tell me how you did that? I have spent many hours doing searches on the net as well as Mr. Janes's cue archives with no success. Incidentally, the Joss archives do not have a section for 1997 cues yet. And again. thank you. Joe

My wife got me this cue for Christmas in 1998. I have contacted Dan Janes, and he remembers the cue, and said that there were very few of them made. He also said he did not know if the cue even had a model number. Do any of you recognize this cue? I think it was made in 1997. I would really...
