While I can not speak to this exact set, I do own several Vigma sets andd they are among the best I own. They stay clean and role true. I have also found the sets I own to all be in close consistency of weight across the set. I do not know why Vigma shut down, but they certainly made...

I have really enjoyed mine! The only regret is that it didn't come with these cool decals so I had to buy them myself. :-)

So I bought a couple of these to get a feel for how they may help teach younger or newer players to evaluate and spot the contact point on cut shots. These are very good for exactly that. I find they almost make it TOO EASY to make what are normally quite challenging cut shots. The best part...

The Palladium set is NOT available in the US through regular retail channels. They ARE available sporadically from a seller on Ebay who carries all of the Asian Market versions. Also our own member here called Rubik's Cube has contact inf for him. He was once offering a discount to members...

Very nice cues! I own and really enjoy an older Meucci with the black dot shaft. They play really well and always display a lot of creativity in the artistry. What are the ages of these?

It was very helpful to see Jason Shaw in the interview after the match. This was asked of him and he addressed it well. He said that BOTH players agreed before the match to give each other the best rack possible and to rack according to the other person's request as far as placement etc... He...

Wow what a solid win for Jason Shaw! He just makes it look so effortless! 13/5 This was his 8th win at Turning Stone!

Thank you all for your input. I have a simple set of old trainers by "Elephant" that work really nicely, but I thought these might be helpful for choosing the OB spot with ease from behind. From there, I don't know how valuable their Cue Ball is, but finding the aim spot on the OB looks like...

This makes a lot of sense as the balls are described as "appear to be about 1 3/4" size. Probably exactly that. Just never seen a set like them and I am always interested in the history of the game. Thanks for the insight.

Really? That is a surprise. I thought these looked like a very old bakelite set. Have you seen one of these particular sets in person? Know any history of where they came from?

I am looking for a helpful training aid for beginner players in the house. These seem to offer a logical approach. Does anyone have any experience with these or any other suggestions? Thanks.

Just saw this set available... any knowledge or thoughts about them? They seem interesting and I am sure there is a story behind this set.

I hold the cue farther back w my CF cue. It has a different pivot point so I moved back. I then learned that doing this decreases my elbow drop quite a bit. I now use a back grip on any cue. My aim and alignment is done while I am standing so I don't really lose anything getting down on the...

Very creative! Love the lid!

Perhaps not JUST for the Asian market, but from what i have read, that entire series is not available in the U.S. except for a couple of Ebay sellers, and who knows how they work that? The only sets licensed to sell here are the "Belgian" quality controlled sets called Platinum etc... If you...

I have that set. It is the Asian market Dynaspheres Palladium. They are pretty much the standard "Fat Boy Approved" colors :-) (except the brown replaces the regular 7/15 color. Beautiful set and play great with ORANGE 5 BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1 Viking F 50 from 2001 Player 1 F. Flowers 20-21 from 2022 Player 1 Lucasi Big Beulah II Breaker 1 Lucasi Air Hog Jumper 2 Action and 1 Mcdermott House Cues and about 22 sets of pool balls

All the talk about measles balls and feedback seems presumptuous to me. If a player is shooting head down, eye on object ball, tip placement where desired on cue ball, that player gets NO feedback from a measles pattern. If they do, they are not executing well because the eye should remain on...

Here is a really nice chart on Phenolic Chemical Resistance that shows Isopropyl Alcohol having no effect on Phenolic and listed as an "A" for cleaning: (Isobutyl should NOT be used) https://composite-laminates.com/phenolic_chemical_resistance_chart.htm

Thank you for this post. I have written to Aramith to see if they have a concern with it. I will let you know what I learn if they respond... Dr. Dave here on the boards is a great resource. He has this video of MANY cleaning methods including Alcohol. He makes no mention about potential...
