    Congress should pass a law

    🤣 true that. Like I said, not happened to me before, and actually used to enjoy playing with different sets. But the novelty has now worn off haha Luckily we weren't playing for anything worthwhile. Didn't cost me the set either... just my sanity

    Congress should pass a law

    I played with a set of Dynaspheres the other day (palladium or platinum - the one with the blue dot cueball, so the Japanese ones), and it was the first time I have really got pissed off by this. Kept thinking the 6 was the 7 (Light blue and grey). 3 times in the set I hit the wrong ball first...

    Alex P vs Mick Hill in the Finals of a Chinese table 9 ball tournament

    True that! The ones I want to find are in Nei Monguo, and Heilongjiang. There is a row of outdoor tables, and lots of cash on the rails. Hustle and bustle. They are fantastic.

    New ferrule

    Same as me, little wipe with the towel. Let's see how it holds up. Plays nicely, and looks so much nicer than before. I might post a few pictures of what's 'popular' here. This whole pearlescent dragon scale thing is big. That and the brown weave, or carbon style micarta. I saw one that was...

    New ferrule

    He had many materials, but language barrier can get in the way of the technical stuff sometimes. Not sure he will have had Tomahawk. He said he'd been making lots of colorful 'dragon scale' and design related things for people lately. But ultimately, these were not materials for playing. Just...

    New ferrule

    I'm no expert in anything, but love seeing how things are done or having a little go myself. Replaced the ferrule on my ILC shaft (the guy let me help and pretend I am capable 🤣 ) The older XTC ferrule had protruded slightly... Now it has a nice flush Melamine with a thoroughbred tip on top. I...

    Alex P vs Mick Hill in the Finals of a Chinese table 9 ball tournament

    I can't find the ones I wanted to find. This one is in Qinghai 1999. There were some much cooler ones in northern China a little earlier. Will post them if I come across them again.

    PERI open Asia List...

    I don't think I have the tech skills to stream, I am considering doing pool hall reviews though. I think that would be an interesting thing to share.

    PERI open Asia List...

    Nailed it Played in a handful now. Mixed results. It’s more a case of timing around GF duties and holiday dates. Was planning to stop by and annoy some friends, but you’re right, 9ball, anything is possible. Might have talked me into it Mr. Jewett

    Let’s see if he can do it outside. Looking at the names on his victim list, it’s fair to say he’s no slouch. Considering it just to see some top dogs, and enjoy Da Nang. Played there a lot, and have a lot of friends there. Maybe maybe.

    PERI open Asia List...

    I was considering putting my name in the hat for this, the Universal 99 before it too. As I have some holiday around that time, and I know a few of the mainland players well (there's more to add to this list since it's generation), but that field is stronger than... I dunno. A strong thing. Been...

    Can't believe he would have come up with that on his own, the cretinous ape. Though cannot deny it's relatively poetic. Curious who he poached it form.

    Alex P vs Mick Hill in the Finals of a Chinese table 9 ball tournament

    I'll ask around. I have seen pictures that are like 50years or so old. I can ask someone and get a more definitive answer. Some of my favourite photos are late 80s/early90s outdoor tables with many people playing. EDIT: So the 50 years or so is right to some degree, but this would not have...
