Thanks ‘fer makin’ my day. I just aboot spit coffee on my coworker at lunch when I saw this. Can’t believe you knew my name is Skulhedface.

I googled my name and apocalypse outfit and all I can say is, “What tha funk!!?” I mean, “What, the actual funk is this?” I thought I was going to get an outfit with shoulder pads that had spikes or something. I’m so embarrassed.

No, that’s why he’s still getting nickels. He’s playing the rube because it keeps people coming back.

That’s the thing though. I don’t think the screws through that aluminum are what’s holding the rails on. Look at the width of the rail cap and the tiny screw head. Gotta be something underneath.

Hey man it’s a “frontier” move.

That’s what I’m thinking. I had a rail bolt come a little loose and got a “tink” sound. Called the guy who I got the table from and he told me they should all be torqued to 15 foot pounds. Fixed it right up.

Boo

So if all the moisture is baked out, how could that possibly be. Gotta say I would be much more likely to spend money on kielwood shaft than I would a carbon fiber shaft. If I made cues I would be selling the scarcity of good tight grain shaft wood. It wouldn’t be a lie.

Quality spin and a softer stroke.

So you’re spending your hour and a half between matches at a tourney and decide to reshape your tip. Ooops! The top layer popped off and now there’s only two layers on the side to the ferrule. That makes for some bone jarring shots; there’s nothing to compress when the edge makes contact. You...

That’s the thing though. With a solid tip you know right away. With a layered tip you won’t know until later on.

Come on now! I’ve had a couple layered tips delaminate on me, usually when they were getting close to being whooped out. When using a solid tip, I know right away after install if it’s N.F.G. (No Freaking Good). Otherwise that tip is good to go. Also. A pressed single layer tip seems to...

I thought you were a crafty vet when I was wetting my unders. You got a bad tip. Change it. I learned this on a thread here, but don’t care to search for it. I made a few duds and used a few regular elkmasters. A few opened up like an accordion; tall and poofy. Dude told me the pressed ones...

Righteous and Kickass man! I liked the violin. Maybe it shouldn’t have been in the forefront so much early, but I really dig the vibrato when everyone took their turns at the solo. Also dig that guitar squeal; had that Zakk Wylde type of harmonic to it. Tasty jam! I’d of never heard it if you...

You’re dawg-gone right! My nephew is a guitar junkie and listens to Maiden constantly. I told him to check out the duel lead in Emerald and he loves Thin Lizzy now. Never heard of Skyclad. I’m going to play that as soon as the kids get their homework done and I can get down to the table.

The Eckert app sounds cool, I’ll have to check it out. It’s not as structured as it sounds. I wish I was gaining competency and replacing a shot everyday, but it never works that way. I have a backlog of trouble spots. However, it does help when I can notice a common theme with trouble shots...

One thing I try to do is add a shot I had trouble with I to my practice. I’ve got a white board with a table drawn on it and at the end of my time at the table I’ll diagram that shot for the next day with the position I want. If I have a shot that I’m comfortable to make 4/5, I’ll take it out...

Oh, hell yeah! My oldest just got us a family membership to Spotify for Christmas. I’ll be jamming to that. Thanks!

I always figure if someone has headphones in they don’t want to be bothered. I wouldn’t expect someone to wear them when we played, but I’m not gonna make a deal out of it. Man you have some eclectic tastes. Thanks for the tunes; be sure to check them out. Depends on my mood. I’ve always been...

Always hated that type of sentiment. Too many fools want to adopt that lovable loser mentality. I don’t live in the city, but I am from Northeast Ohio, so that’s who I identify with. A lot to be proud of round here.
