    How to remove mildew smell from linen wrap on cue??

    Thanks for the ideas. I don’t drink coffee so no go on the coffee grounds. I think the smell may be about gone from the wrap. I set the butt outside today for fresh air. I read that sunlight could help remove the smell so I covered the finished areas so that only the wrap was exposed to light...

    Fedor & Kristina make the local news

    That was awesome. That is a local tv station and I had no idea that they had ran this story. And so cool to learn that the two of them live in Southern Indiana.

    Items taken to the pool hall getting weird.

    Just started playing APA League a few weeks ago. One place we play has those crappy flexible plastic racks. Close to impossible to get a good rack. The next time we play there (tomorrow) I'm taking some templates. If my opponent doesn't want to use them then we won't, but wow those plastic racks...

    Break Cue Tips

    I had the phenolic tip that came on my budget break cue changed to an Ultraskin Heavy Hitter. I did not like the sound and feel of the phenolic type. For me the Ultraskin HH was a definite improvement.

    LED lighting for bar table

    Our lighting is fluorescent not LED in the set-up we have over our 8 ft. Steepleton. The stained wooden enclosure was made for us by a friend over 30 years ago. The lights are 8 foot bulbs. I originally thought of going with two 4 ft. units but decided to go with the single 8 foot system. The...
