    Which are your favourite quotes from players?

    "Pool is a beautiful game played by ugly people." I'll let you determine which player actually said it. Either way, it's a dandy.

    Florida Open 2025, August 5-10, Orlando, Caribe Royale

    Hopefully today's players learned from yesterday's players, realize they've got a very good thing with Matchroom and don't do anything stupid to screw it up. I don't think Matchroom would want to get wrapped up in tax evasion issues with any country. I think they have the right and authority...

    Florida Open 2025, August 5-10, Orlando, Caribe Royale

    Shane has been pretty dominant, going 67-17 over the course of 7 matches. On average, he's only lost 2.4 games per match with a 79.7% winning percentage. Hopefully he can keep his focus for the semi final and final.

    First day with my Aramith Tournament Black , dinged already

    A collision with an exposed nail head at normal speed can nick a phenolic cue ball.

    First day with my Aramith Tournament Black , dinged already

    Who was the seller? Stateside or overseas? Unfortunately, there are counterfeits out there that appear VERY authentic. The best bet is to buy from an authorized dealer.

    First day with my Aramith Tournament Black , dinged already

    Unless your neighbor was playing with a phenolic tip, there's no way it was anything he did to cause the blemish. My money is on the table you played on has nail in pocket liners and one of the nailheads was exposed causing the nick, I'd wager some of the object balls have them too. Where did...

    (-R-) New Rauenzahn (-R-)

    Pics including the shafts were taken by Jerry prior to packing it up. One of the maple shafts (my player) has blueing but I've used the Cynergy for about 2 years now.

    (-R-) New Rauenzahn (-R-)

    Jerry make a great playing and looking cue. This has been my player for the past 8 years. I switched to a Cuetec Synergy shaft and had a local cue maker add the matching rings and joint protectors.

    Rebuttal by Johann Chua re Waxgate

    She uses too much cleaning solution. With the Ballstar, she should be slightly dampening the sponge with the cleaning solution.

    Gold Crown question: Table Height Adjustment & Restoring Leg Feet

    My table is at 31" No way you are going to restore those without removing them. As gasman said, powder coating is going to be the most durable option.

    Lighting: Parabolic Louvers vs. Egg Crate

    I'm not sure of the distance between the fluorescent bulbs and the louvers and I'm not sure if LED panels can be placed on top of louvers. I'd reach out to the manufacturer to ask. I do know that if the LED's you are planning to use are not frosted, you may get a tiger striping effect on the...

    Spraying Gold Crown Skirts

    The damage to the bottom of the ball box is most likely from people jamming the rack in there. I decided to countersink the holes in the trim and use #2 screws vs the nails so there’s less opportunity for the balls to get scratched or nicked.

    Spraying Gold Crown Skirts

    Why not drill out the holes and epoxy in some dowels? Once finished and retapped, it's ready for another 70 years. Heck, I didn't even put the rack holder back on my table. The ball return box tends to get beat up by people returning the rack to the holder. I use a template rack anyway with...
