    Table Restoration project

    .45 Auto rail sights are REALLY cool! I might have to do that on my table. I've got a white oak table with white sights and it's driving me crazy.

    American Heritage table advise needed Please

    It's all here. All you have to do is do some digging. I did my first table back in July. I certainly had some questions about materials/techniques, but I didn't expect to be spoonfed and I did most of the heavy lifting (research, searching, etc.). I learned enough on my own that I came back...

    LF: Opinions on Olhausen Tables

    I recently restored an Olhausen 8' OS table and per RKC's feedback, I used k-66 profile cushions (Artemis Pool 66 to be exact). My nose height came out perfectly. I'm pretty sure the Accufast cushions are just a slightly modified k-66 profile. The top profile is flatter so that the top of the...

    Colored Chalk Users

    I can see how red or orange chalk would be a b***h to clean up. That being said, I have tournament blue cloth on my table at home and I use the standard blue Masters chalk. I actually like that it's not the same color because when I'm cleaning the cloth, I can tell that I got everything out of...

    Maintaining cloth...

    I have 860HR on my table, and once a week or so, I vacuum the chalk out of it and wipe it down with a slightly damp cloth. I hate dragging the canister vac around the table to do this (including getting it out and putting it back), and I'm looking for suggestions for a high quality "dustbuster"...

    Looking for a straight pool score counter

    Thanks, DogsPlayingPool... I have been marking score on a sheet of paper so it wasn't convenient to deduct fouls from the running total on the fly. It was easier to record them and then subtract them from the score when the rack totals were added in at the end of the rack. Sometimes I get so...

    Looking for a straight pool score counter

    Me too... I have been wrestling with this issue too, and had just about settled on rabbetting one or two of the counters from Seyberts into my cue rack. My problem is that I like to keep track of rack score, fouls and the cumulative score. I've just about decided that I'm going to do a small...

    how long to heal after surgery?

    I had mine done laparoscopically on a Friday morning, and never skipped a beat. I was up and hanging out at home that afternoon. Went back to work the next Wednesday (actually took a day more than I wanted to just to play it safe). Pool should be fine in 4-5 days. Your break shots are what...

    Cushion cutting & installation questions

    No wiggle room with the 3M 10. It helped immensely to have a helper hold up the unattached glue-coated section of the cushion while I positioned it an inch or two at a time. I rough-cut my Artemis cushions with a utility knife and then used a 3" belt sander with 200-grit to finish the ends so...
