    What's the meaning of 314 and Z?

    Bravo BigBoof / A green for that! I'm pretty sure, that you're right! And the Z . . . any idea? Could it be, because it's the last letter in the Alphabet and you can't go any further/higher as with the Z? Or is the Z just standing for Zero Deflection? WHO KNOWS IT?

Actually I love both: 9" DIAMOND's and 9" GOLD CROWN' s If the table is all in all in a good shape, beeing straight, with rightly reacting banks , a quit new SIMONIS 760 or 860 and finally some new ARAMITH TV-Balls, that would just be heaven on Pool Earth for me! Btw, if I...

    On my Schon Unique the diameter of the Schon IV Shaft Collar isn’t equal to the joint section's collar!
