    Smithsonian Museum Billiards/Pool Exhibit

    Si.edu has photos of everything in their permanent collection. They have lots of billiards stuff. Edit: looks like AZB discussed this a few years ago. https://forums.azbilliards.com/threads/lets-create-the-smithsonian-american-cue-maker-exhibition-here-on-azb.525103/

    Matchroom Multi Sport is still profitable

    Good find thank you. And good news for us pool fans (and pro players) that this looks sustainable for the near term.

    Old videos

    Many of the 14.1 championship matches of the 20s and 30s were captured on newsreel. But they were stored and locked away out of fears that someone would copy them without paying royalties, and now are lost to time. A lot of the remaining footage of the early greats is unfortunately of dopey...

    Cue lathe tailstock alignment

    I second this recommendation. There are other similar alignment tools but the edge is cheap and easy. I would bet the 6060 tail stock (sitting on two different risers) is canted and off height.

    Cue lathe tailstock alignment

    Interesting. That’s a tail stock from a 6060/6090 CNC that someone crudely fitted to a riser. I’ve thought about doing the same thing because it’s not a bad tailstock. But I’ve avoided doing so because I was worried about alignment

    Cue lathe tailstock alignment

    I’m curious on the tail stock as well, the standard taig tail stocks are incredibly flimsy.

    DigiBall updates

    It looks like you have a mode now where the user doesn’t need to help input distance or contact time (the automatic mode) I like the automatic mode as it looks like it was pretty accurate for the examples you showed. I suggest to the extent you can, that the default mode in the app appear...

    Mainstream Media and Matchroom's WNT WPC

    You probably saw this already on his social media, but Fedor had a videographer follow him during the week to do a documentary. If that’s any good, it could have a broad reach like you are hoping for.

    Mainstream Media and Matchroom's WNT WPC

    Most companies no longer invest in coverage for cable news or print media--unless you are targeting the over 80 demographic. But I certainly agree with you that this was an amazing event and it's too bad it's not more widely seen. We have to trust the people at Matchroom that they know how to...

    This event (and other recent Matchroom events) bodes very well for the coming years.

    2024 World Pool Championship

    I wonder if Kaci trains to only shoot on the last of the warning beeps, at the final instant. Like if it’s part of his stroke cadence. And desire to always be the slowest player on Earth.

    I’m not sure why they bother having spectator seats at all.

    2024 World Pool Championship

    Could you tell what happened with his break cue when the tip flew off? Looked like filler was asking for a break after the frame to go grab another cue?
