    8 ball best way to break

    Why would you want to make the 8 ball on the break? Yea, I know, VNEA "Option 1," bar rules, APA rules. But not real rules of eight ball. :)

    Oiling cue tip

    "Oil" doesn't mean just petroleum. Could be vegetable oil, animal oil etc. You think your skin oil is petroleum based? Ha, stop drinking the STP!

    Oiling cue tip

    You mean Rudolf Walter Wanderone Jr., the fake fats, or the character in The Hustler?

    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    Yes, well, note that they don't make tennis courts smaller for pros, nor football fields, table tennis tables, or 100 meters smaller or shorter for so-called "pro" play.

    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    So, at a certain point, doesn't this start to be another game, something other than "pool?" I mean, with 5", 142º corners and 5 1/2" 102º*sides, there are shots you can make that are unavailable with 4" pockets, let alone 3 13/16". It's a completely different game with those tight pockets...

    Brunswick vs Olhausen

    Now you are just being contrary. The play area for these was in the other information from Brunswick. Check the other stuff I cited: the 8' table has a 44" x 88" Playfield; the 8' Pro table has a 46" x 92" Playfield. As far as I can tell from all the available info from Brunswick, what they...

    Brunswick vs Olhausen

    That could well be, I don't doubt there could be contradictory information from Brunswick. For reference, on the GCIII, here's what I am going on, which was published in 1978: https://brunswick.pastperfectonline.com/library/38C18744-ED72-4F11-88E5-188420238567 Physical Description...

    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    I have heard that when Brunswick did the GCIII they changed cushions, and the ones on the III's get hard pretty soon after delivery. If original I wouldn't expect them to bank properly. On the other hand, many much older GCI's and II's have original rubber that is still fine. I did some...

    Buying used 8' pro am table

    I'm not a mechanic or a pool table mover, but I recently had a GC I moved and set up. I assume the one you're talking about a Diamond Pro Am. I am confused about the choice of vehicle. I assume you'd disassemble this, and the only big, bulky items are the slates. Is it a one piece or three...
