thanks for the words of encouragement! looking forward to making subpar bullshit.

Vacuumed and cleaned the table today. took more pics. Faceted legs. Mounted the overhead and test drove . Plays sooooo good now.

update. Pilot hole sanded to satisfaction. Pin screwed in. Again decided to forgo the epoxy until it needs it. snug as a glove now.

i have a few tools but dont have the space or money for the lathe shop of my dreams. Right now im working on converting a drill for spinning shafts. The rosewood came in with an 18 pin flat faced phenolic joint at 19oz on the nose with a 3.9oz shaft, with an 18” balance point. This was part of...

i’ve posted in this sub-forum a few times over the years, and for the MOST part have encountered friendly, helpful craftsmen that love what they do…. …. and a few gatekeeping assholes. i’ve decided i’m going to make cues. eventually. i’ve been horsing around with what i have, which isnt...

Looks like i got a century supreme due to the lack of ball holders. super cool. i play on the gandy in the background because its softer but i think switching to the bwick will be good for my game. The sides play more like a diamond whereas the gandy side pocket facings can be hit with a wide...

thanks gar. how does one tell the difference or find out more ?

terrible photos, i’ll go take some better ones today, but y’all might know what it is regardless. the “brunswick” says “brunswick since 1845” there is no ball holder. there is a bridge holder on one side and there are no pegs for the racks. the legs are square. 5” pockets.

Thanks, and yes it is rosewood

okay so i did not play well this set. however. i recently double dog dared my good buddy and fellow azb member @Birk1 to start filming ghost sets. to reciprocate and show him that its no big deal i took on a race to 3. I Fully expected it to go 0-3, but Instead it hilariously went...

i understand now. I bought her cue as a gift for an upcoming something-or-other, so when i emailed david, he sent me a photo of the cues that he had available at that moment. Let me drag it out of gmail: Dates on gmail say december of ‘19 so that something-or-other was christmas i suppose...

The SKS kielwood is their current low deflection option.

I don’t quite get your meaning. Inspired by hers how? You mean you just ordered it after seeing this photo? I’ve done a lot of work on that thing, actually. It plays amazing. Its been sort of my guinea pig for beginning to work on cues. quoting myself to collapse the text, because i wrote...

the website does not work well. I emailed him a link to this thread, so maybe he will look into it. Perhaps someone here with experience in that area could help the guy out…. Perhaps in trade…. best bet is to call the guy. he isnt a technology expert by any means

yes, it is pictured, the rosewood plain jane

many years back i decided to get my girlfriend a cue. not wanting to spend much, i got ahold of David Schmelke through email to see what was available. I got a cheap rosewood plain jane with a nice checkered collar and matching collar on a maple shaft. I also ordered a PTO pro shaft, which at...

bummer man, sorry to hear you had a bad time. how often do you feel cloth should be replaced? as for league, they have a whiteboard up with their schedule but i’m not seeing it online. I’ll snap a photo of it and post it here if OP wants. ive not been to U time yet but it does look nice.

They have a ball polisher next to the register, theyd be happy to clean the balls for ya if you felt they were too dirty. as for the cloth, they replace it fairly regularly but you probably caught em at the end of the cycle. a lot of 9ball gets played there and the spots get worn out quick...
