    J Flowers Aspirant Series Cue -- any thoughts?

    The JF-JP 2 Power Jump is the one I purchased. It does work very, very good. Side by side against the Air2, the JF performs better, which I thought was not possible. I've tried the Air Rush as well but IMO it does not perform at a $600 price tag. Maybe I didn't get enough practice time with it...

    J Flowers Aspirant Series Cue -- any thoughts?

    I have the break cue shown in your photos and their Carbon jump. Very hard, if not impossible, to beat for the $$$. The Carbon jump performs extremely well. The JF outperforms the Air2 in my experience, which also jumps well.

    Kamui black vs the rest

    The last Kamui Black I used was worn out in two months. Switched to Zan Medium and it's holding up much better. I wish the Predator Victory tips felt better because they survive the longest of any I've had.

    Poll: Pool Ball Cleaning

    Diamond Dual Platter here. Worked hard to buy it and love it. If they offered a seat cushion for it then it could be a piece of furniture as a bonus. Hardly ever see them in the used market, but that goes for most ball cleaning machines. Buy once, keeps it forever.

    Revo tip replacement

    Zan Medium has done well for me on the Revo. I wore out the last Kamui in 2 months. Victory tip Medium isn't bad, but the Zan is too currently, in my book. I quit using soft tips because they all felt like mediums after a month of play

    Correct. I didn't know that initially.

    Subrail Extentions Idea

    As far as shelf depth, I went the extended subrail route and have 1.25" of shelf depth on 4.5" ProCut pockets. Gold Crown 4. I have a set of rails being redone at 4.125" so I'll know how much shelf I lose with that setup soon as they get back from MG.

    Diamond pocket sizing

    I've got 4.75" sides and they are demanding. Even dropping pockets to 4.125" I choose to keep the sides at 4.75". The 4" Blue Label local to me has 5" sides or very close to that.

    Cloth durability : opinions?

    My 860 had track lines for 9 ball and 10 ball breaks within 6 months. At almost 2 years since install date, it still plays great but looks beat up. But I'm going to get it redone this year at some point.

    Custom Pocket Markers

    I've always pointed or used a coin, but the ones you are showing are much cooler.

    Proud owners of custom cues, what do you do with the spare shaft?

    Sold them. Got rid of the factory Diveney shafts and picked up 2 Radial Revo's in their place.

    Pool stuff you bought🤮, tried or used, and said never again.🤮

    I've had good luck with Porter Cut-Rite and the Tip Burnisher. Just gotta wet the edges of the tip and be gentle with the burnisher. I did order the Longoni mushroom trimmer, so we'll see how that goes.

    My latest purchase GC 3

    No kidding, that needs some love. But the ball return was easily the best part of that find. You can't get tracks and pockets and a box for $100 anywhere else, lol.

    Extra top for Gold Crown 4?

    I've read (and that's subject to incorrect remembering, lol) that the Black Label badging could be put on at a customers request, but was just a different color Red Label. Again, I'm drawing that from reading it on here at some point.

    Extra top for Gold Crown 4?

    I'm gonna leave it to MG. I know things can be done to miter angles and down angles and such, but I've got no reason to doubt why he does what he does. I honestly appreciate the input and that's why I love this site. So many people with different experiences can give their input, and there are...

    Extra top for Gold Crown 4?

    I have 141 currently and they are a tick under 4.5" and you gotta hit them good. They will rattle when you hammer them down the rail if you dont hit them clean. Wish I could post a video lol. Your down the rail sounds really similar to what occurs on my table. Brushing the rail with speed...
