    my dumbass need some help. TIA

    At my local VFW the coin mechanism fell apart years ago. So, someone cut a chunk of plywood to fit the hole. Transferred the lock and holding brackets and then they cut a quarter sized slot and away we go! Games are only a quarter so someone's always 'listening' to hear it drop. chuckle. keys...

    Book Blurb

    Pin, Howdy; Not everyone is a good speller. When you go back in some of the old English and some of the documents from our Founding Fathers you'll notice the use of the letter 'f' where we now days use the letter 's'. So, while it may be a spelling error today, perhaps it wasn't 'back-when'...

    Am I crazy or do side pockets on 7 ft tables play bigger for scratches than 9 ft?

    Howdy All; I am finding it difficult to talk as I eating my words from my first post in this discussion. Should have re-read this first. Should have taken the time to post this earlier. It's from the Book "The Eight Ball Bible by R. Givens. He gives a breakdown on pg.37 about pockets and sizes...

    You only have a single price listed. Is that inclusive (all 3), or for each, or... for the Purex only?? Thought someone else might have asked earlier but apparently not.

    Am I crazy or do side pockets on 7 ft tables play bigger for scratches than 9 ft?

    Coos Cues, Howdy; Bit of High Left for 3 rails. What type of table was it? Valley side pockets are huge compared to the corners. Diamond, I have not played yet so can't speak for them. Would be interesting if someone could measure them (Diamonds), as well as the corners to get a good...

    tinman3913, Howdy; Don't buy sight unseen, post some photos so we can see what you are offering. As you are a newish member and you've only posted twice.

One of the places we'd go to had 2 tables 7' and had to move them for various functions. They kept a transmission jack under each table. Marked spots for the feet and a 4'...

    TWICE-PLUS-TENTHS … The Most Useful Bank Shot Diamond System You’ll Ever Learn

    Dr. Dave, Howdy; Correct me if I'm wrong or outta step. Were you using that older Olhausen table to develop this? Granted the Olhausen is a nice table but not what most folks will find in their local Bar/Tavern or Pool hall. Have you tested this theory on other tables to see what bits play or...
