    10-ball Drop Early Rule

    It looks like they have eliminated the called combo on the ten for an early win. This is the rule as of today: 9.8 Continuing Play If the shooter legally pockets a called/nominated ball on a shot (except a push out, see 9.4 Second Shot of the Rack – Push Out), any additional balls pocketed...

    My apologies

    Pool players could never agree on the rules of the game, or which game to play for that matter. Never mind the size and brand of the table. This forum proves my point.

    Fake ivory is like fake child porn.

    Thoughts on an extended custom cue

    Your stick figure is missing a left forearm, or about 13".

    Thoughts on an extended custom cue

    All extensions alter the balance either forward or back and add the weight of another joint. I will never go back to a shorter cue, with my hand behind the wrap or on the butt cap. Here is my 62 inch'er custom made to my specs by Schmelke...

    I love posts like this. It's how I determine what idiots to put on ignore.

    curving an object ball....

    This is what I see. You can see it land and bounce a foot off the rail.

    Bank shots...

    Looks to me like you guys are hitting hard enough that the object ball comes off the rail in the air (in a straight line) then the spin causes it to curve back when it regains traction on the cloth. In the video some have posted you can see the ball bounce about a foot off the rail.

    What is the Angle of this Shot?

    "I don't know the math on this shot....but I can tell you that if you roll the black in.... ....and there are no obstructions.... ...the cue ball will drop into the side pocket." You obviously did not watch the video.

    Non adhesive material that sticks to table cloth?

    I see where you are going. What about a thin plastic that clings to wool/nylon electro-statically? Rub on the cloth to charge? Of course a ball rolling over might have a better attraction, and lift it.

    Kicking systems

    https://manningcues.com/store/home.php Go to his 10 free kicking videos. Best and clearest explanation of the diamond system I have found. I had been kicking by instinct for 50+ years. After watching these videos several times, and practicing for a day or two, my success rate tripled. My table...

    Non adhesive material that sticks to table cloth?

    "Avery" clear self adhesive reinforcements are .003 inches thick. They peel off easily and re-stick many times. Keep track of where you put them, as they are hard to see once stuck down.

    Is Max Eberle as big as a goof as I now think?

    Here you go Kid. No charge.

    Is Max Eberle as big as a goof as I now think?

    My main "point" is they were made from well known photographs. Real art in the style does not use photographs.

    Is Max Eberle as big as a goof as I now think?

    I could be wrong, but those look like photos run thru Photoshop filters. Takes me all of two minutes to do that. I am really surprised his theories aren't more supported here on "Flat Earth AZB".:rolleyes:

    Schmelke Shaft - design input needed :)

    FYI : Last I checked, they are "flat" laminated like plywood. Be sure that is what you want.

    Anyone do Huebler wight modification?

    I was able to remove one that was epoxied in by holding a soldering iron on the top of the bolt for about 15 minutes to soften the glue. This also softened the glue holding on the butt sleeve, so that had to be reglued after removing the bolt. I left the bolt out entirely to reduce the weight...

    World Masters Table A Joke

    Glad to see I am not the only one to notice the loose pockets. I tried to reproduce some of the shots made on my own pro-cut Diamond table and they rattled as expected. I suspect they use the league cut pockets in Europe to better match the Brunswicks they are used to.:rolleyes:
