Edwin Reyes introduced me to Manny Pacquio at a tournament in the Philippines. He played a demonstration match against one of the Filipino heartthrob male actors who was also a pool nut. He introduced me to the actor also but I was so blown away upon meeting Manny that I didn't pay much...

Eric answered it pretty well. I look at it kind of like the California gold rush where a few guys made good money, some made working wages but the smart ones mined the miners and sold them shovels, liquor and other supplies. I've been friends with Joe Blackburn for about 30 years. Not too long...

Slim, In some ways I agree with you and I don't want to cause problems for Greg, Mark or Diamond as I respect them very much, but your post reminds me of the APA proponents who say that because there are 270,000 APA members that everyone must like the system. In both cases this is wrong! If...

Possibly, if the shaft the ferrule is on is junk and the ferrule is slightly larger than the size of the new shaft. Actually neither is written in stone but it's better just in case. You will have to cut the shaft at the ferrule. You could possibly install a new tenon and ferrule on the donor...

Are you sure you have your facts straight? Bad stuff happens to cuemakers too. Recently we had Dickie in the hospital and nursing home for a couple of months and Eric who was first bitten by a spider and suffered serious injuries and afterwards had family issues that took precedents over his...

I have an Ah-Ha controller on my Techno Isel CNC. I have a second Techno CNC that I just bought a gecko type control and the license for mach 3. I'd gladly trade my brand new Gecko setup and software for a good working AH-HA controller, not because the AH-HA is better, because it's a relic...

That and the points can take some of the flex out of a forearm depending upon the wood combinations, or even possibly add some in certain rare cases. In say a maple forearm with ebony or cocobolo points, the points should stiffen up the hit slightly where if the combinations are reversed it...

No I don't think this is true. I think you're a TROLL. Coming in here making up a story so stupid that a brain dead junkie would not believe. All you're doing is stirring the pot trying to get an emotional reply from people here. Get a life! Quit using AZ as you're playground!

Try one of those large tan art gum erasers. I go over all sanded area with the eraser going lengthwise with the grain before using anything like acetone or prepsol. Does a great job.

Highly unlikely!

I gave away 8 sets of those for 9' GC 1&2's several years ago. Took them off all of my tables, but mine were drop pocket. They looked better without them and were a lot easier to recover the tables without them.

Where are you located? There's a custom table builder here in the Cincinnati area who's made me a couple of Gold Crown blinds that you could not tell from the originals. His name is Mark Krotchens of Obsidian Billiards. I don't have his number handy but if you need it let me know and I'll get it...

Bob does excellent work and is a great guy to deal with. You can't go wrong with Bob!

I agree. I think we have a good chance of seeing Earl win #6!

Welcome back Eric! Glad you were able to make everything right at home where it counts! God Bless! Sherm

Good thing you didn't try to call the manufacturer. That would have been a real long distance call. Might need a Mandarin translator also.

No, the longer they are, the lighter they get. I'm sorry, but I couldn't resist. No offence, but this has to be the dumbest question I've ever read here!

I agree. I too haven't missed one of the DCC Tournaments and probably won't but I go under protest now for the same reasons you mentioned. A casino is the worse place to have a pool tournament. The casino drains money out of the pool economy that can't be replaced. The reason the action rooms...

Yes, it has a new nameplate, but it's the same as the old one. It didn't have lead inlays, just the marquetry. The new name plate was $140.

Happy Birthday Jay.
