    Labor upcharge for Simonis vs. quote for invitational?

    I think most mech's would agree that Simonis & other worsted cloths are indeed more difficult to install correctly, meaning no wrinkles, stretch marks, etc. That being said, if the guy is experienced he should still have no trouble installing Simonis. I personally enjoy working with Simonis...

    1890 Brunswick Jewel

    I recently had the pleasure of working on a true work of art, an 1890 Brunswick Jewel. I moved, set up and recovered the table with Gold Simonis 860. The woodwork and crafsmanship on this old table is just awesome, not to mention the frame is built like a tank. They just don't make em' like...

    Advice on a Pool table in N. Virginia

    Are you looking to get that 9' Olhausen table? If so you need a lot more space! :( Consider that the average cue is 57" long. The playing area of a 9' table is 50" x 100". If you figure 60" of free space around the perimeter of the actual playfield you need an area 14.1' x 18.3'. 8' table...

    Diamond tables - black marks on balls

    101 uses for Simonis I also took a tour of the Diamond factory with Aaron Berger, a Diamond Rep. He suggested lining the pocket with some black Simonis. They had a table in their showroom that they had done this to and it looked fine. I will be giving this idea a try on my home table (9'...

    GC3 new rails

    Ask Jay to put some Diamond K55 cushions on your rails. Better reliability than Superspeed, in many a mechanic's opinion.

    Need replacement parts

    Does anybody know where I can get a couple of these corner trim pieces? It is for a Murrey 8' table. I tired to contact Murrey Billiards but they said they were bought out by a company called Escalde years ago. I have e-mailed Escalade but haven't heard anything back from them. I also...

    Wtb joint pins (3/8-10 & 5/16-14)

    I thought about that but I don't have any extra JP's to use and by the time I buy them and pay shipping I don't think I'll be saving anything :frown:

    Wtb joint pins (3/8-10 & 5/16-14)

    I'm looking for a 3/8-10 and 5/16-14 pin that I can use in my cordless drill to do some basic shaft cleaning & tip maintenance on my shafts. Anybody out there be willing to sell me one of each? I looked on Atlas Billiards and the pins themselves are only a couple of dollars but they want $16...

    Refelting my Diamond Pro Am

    Pat is on the money here. The gentleman in the Diamond video makes that bed cloth install look very easy. Why? Because he's probably done 300 of them and could do it blindfolded! There is no substitute for proper training & experience ;) Good on you for wanting to learn how to work on your...

    Fastest table in town!

    Saw this at the Indianapolis auto show. Standard size 4 x 8. I'm guessing you could level it by adding or removing air pressure from the tires! :thumbup:
