    WPA Bans 245 Players

    I love playing barbox pool (including 8 ball), but pros playing 8 ball on a 9 footer is not a watchable game for me (nor is heyball). I would much rather watch the ultimate pool version of barbox 8 ball.

    a loss to the industry

    Agreed, Todd is awesome. It would be great to see someone take over his business to keep selling these Taig compatible parts (yes Chris is wonderful too).

    The Reyes Cup

    I had thought Matchroom was stuck with DAZN because of their boxing events?

    Yes, it also sounds like hyperthyroidism

    Drill size for Radial tap..

    Here's the uniloc spec if anyone needs an answer: https://uni-loc.com/install/Radial_Pin_Installation.pdf I've always wondered if makes a difference to tap-then-bore (which takes a while) or bore than tap (which is quicker). The later is harder to seat the tap perfectly I suppose, but I don't...

    2 axis CNC Lathe software

    I use a $20 GRBL controller for my 2-axis lathe (both the controller and steppers were scavenged from a 3D printer). It's pretty easy to write the g-code for the tapers you might want.

    How much weight do you give to a numbering system for Kick shots?

    That’s a good idea bob, thanks. My practical failures with the mirror system have been accurately placing the mirror ball in my mind when it’s a non trivial distance from the rail (a few inches off there makes a difference too).

    How much weight do you give to a numbering system for Kick shots?

    I think the tip of the cushion is your contact point (that’s how I use it at least). My error comes in accurately spotting the midpoint on kicks with large gaps between ob and cb.

    How much weight do you give to a numbering system for Kick shots?

    This is my favorite system for one rail kicks, no counting. It really improved my ability to precisely kick.

    Do you know if this is on DAZN or Youtube in the states?

    Filler withdrawn from Reyes cup

    I don’t like any of these player bans (the viewing will be worse now) but you have to admit that Filler crapping on his own fans on social media was incredibly stupid.

    Filler withdrawn from Reyes cup

    I don’t know, I was thinking more that Filler is being pressured by his sponsors / federations to not play in WNT events. Because I think this ban makes the WNT look bad as filler earned his spot through points.

    Filler withdrawn from Reyes cup

    Is it possible that Filler is withdrawing at the request of the WPA? I didn’t see a statement from him.

    Highest number of rack run in a row in 9 ball.

    Here's Berman with a 18-pack, in video and in (minor) competition on a barbox: [not saying this is a record, but it's on video at least]

    Aluminum radial pin?

    I’ve noticed, screwing around with my own designs, that swapping one pin for an identical pin in the same butt can change the feel. There are tons of variables, including refacing of the joint during install, the installation of inserts or plugs for the new pin, differences in how the epoxy...

    WNT 2024 Hanoi Open (8-13 Oct), Winner $30K

    It was before my time paying attention to such things, but I did a quick check and there was never a registered trademark on “14.1 world championship.” It is possible that Charlie didn’t want to deal with it. Here is a statement from the WPA consistent with this...

    WNT 2024 Hanoi Open (8-13 Oct), Winner $30K

    That’s the “WPA world championship”. You and I could have a world championship (and promote it) provided we didn’t use the WPA trademark. Generic terms can’t be trademarked. But I was thinking more of the world 8 ball championship and 9 ball championship (and 10 ball) may have different...
