    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    I don't know, Trent, all I'm saying is that as I measure them, I get different readings on the eight angles, form 140.5º*to 145º, so, there're not all the same.

    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    I have no idea. I can only attribute it to manufacturing variability and measurement variability. As I think I mentioned, with the cloth and the sharp edge of the cushion nose it can be tough to make a good measurement.

    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    I just measured all 8 corner angles, they vary form 140.5º to 145º. Then, it's tough to measure on the sharp edge of the cushion to the facing, with the cloth, etc. For a better measurement I'd likely go around and measure all of them five times or so and take an average for each.

    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    Mine isn't, and by measurement of the thickness of the cushions, I'm pretty sure it's original rubber. But, I will check again.

    Vegan Tip Option

    How did she come to know that the tips were leather? And don't you feel a moral obligation to at least tell her the cloth is wool?

    Gold Crowns and the term Diamonized

    I find this thread entertaining. Here's the BCA equipment specs: Corner Pocket: Mouth 4 7/8” minimum to 5 1/8” maximum Side Pocket: Mouth 5 3/8” minimum to 5 5/8” maximum The angle at the corner pocket entrance on each side of the pocket is 142º (± 1º). The angle at the side pocket entrance...

    Vegan Tip Option

    Did you ever ask her about how she feels about playing on woolen cloth with the vegan tip? Inquiring minds want to know. p.s. veganism is mental illness

    Why not? (And, yes, it does - at least, I've seen it, with guys who didn't know each other.)

    Presidential Pool Tables

    Welcome to AZB! I hope you get an answer. I'm curious, but I'm all set with a table. By the way, the original post was 12 years ago! You could take a protractor to a dealer and measure two things: the angle of the cushion at the corner pockets, and also the "down angle" (not sure of the...

    The unfixable pool table

    Thanks very much for following up! Many don't and it leaves you wondering what happened. I'm glad there's a happy ending to this, and that the original guy made good on our added expense. I confess I would have probably taken the $1,100! :)

    So I'm In Action And This Happens - WWYD?

    If you still have them, you should auction them off here! Someone could make one of those sports memorabilia shadow boxes with some pics, a nice print-out of the story, and the pieces of the bills. Better yet, you have it made and sign it! I betcha you'll get a lot more than $100 and your...

    Pool Ball Collecting.

    They have flats on them? That's the weirdest set of "balls" I've ever seen. Shouldn't even call them balls, they are more like dice.

    Gold Crown Rail Install

    A long straightedge with smooth-ended wood blocks screw to it, to raise the edge to nose height; and, a carpenter's square with the same block treatment, are the tools you need. I confess this is entirely speculative for me. I have a Gold Crown I, and plans to rebuild it, following a poor...

    Gold Crown Rail Install

    With respect, you don't have to be a skilled mechanic to answer this question; you just have to read the manual. The service manual, which is actually the installation manual, is available free online, here at AZB, albeit with a few pages missing. (Search for posts form Trenetform toledo with...
