Happy Birthday !!! But don't light all those candles. They may cause a fire and necessitate the use of some very expensive water ! I can see it now. A bunch of old of guys judiciously sprinkling water on fire in Hanks. Wow LOL If I see you next time I'm in Denver (Hanks or Felts)...

On their way Texan, Pics and brief description sent to your e-mail. Hope it helps.

Buzzard, It's not about propriety. Just my privacy and the privacy of my room. I'm an old guy too and I enjoy the privacy I have. You are welcome, none the less. pm sent Jodacus

I'll be good when.... I'll be good when a week of practice goes by and I don't discover something that needs more practice. Over 50 and still working at it.

Tell us about it! Report back tomorrow on how it went. It would be fun to hear!

Then there is the fact that a great pool player is not necessarily a great person. I admire anyone who reaches the pinnacle of any respectable endeavor as long as the personality deserves my respect as well. I have very little respect for most movie people or politicians. Their personal...

Glad to help Fastone & Buzzard, I went through quite a bit of experimentation to match the GC mahogany color. I also built my own lighting which may be of interest to you. I would be happy to take pics and send them to you privately. I am also more willing to share my stain formula. For...

Dartman, It's easiest to use a high quality level because I'm alone when I do this. I flip the level over and the bend in the rail nose is the same with either surface of the level. I also support the level off the table so that it can be pushed up against the rail nose and stay...

Glen hit the nail on the head. The worst rail is bowed towards the center of the table with the ends bowed less less than 1/16" Two other rails have less bow with the rest being perfectly straight. Yes, I only noticed it now. I live in a very dry climate. Wood that is considered dry in...

Advice, lots and lots and lots of advice. From your own team as well as every other person there. My advice. ! What they they said above.

3 year old GC5. Purchased new. RKC you and I have talked about you coming by when you are back in the west. I was asking about the rubber cause if I need to get it I would like to have it here and ready for Glen. Question remains. Is it the rubber or can the felt be pulled so hard as to...

Still baffled! No dimples or waves. Still baffled!

Cloth? I was wondering if it was the cloth. I didn't think it was possible to pull the cloth hard enough to misshape the rail nose. AM I wrong?

I have done business with Wes for several years now. Good guy, straight shooter, never a problem.

The nose of my rails are not straight. A 48" level held against my rails shows that only about half of then are perfectly straight. When I hold a straight edge on the back of the felt (on top of and on the outside of the featherstrip) it appears that the rail is straight. This would seem...

I don't seem to have enough adjustment in either or both rails. Even with both rails loose I cannot move them into perfect alignment.

I have a GC5 where the long rails don't line up perfectly with each other. I have loosened the rail bolts and tried to move them into alignment but can not get enough adjustment. What is the fix? I may or may not choose to do it myself. Thanks !!

You're not alone. I too favor thicker butts and linen wrap, though some leather is becoming acceptable to me. Last cue I ordered was with thicker butt. Just feels so much better !

One way Try playing a single player game (like Fargo) where you can keep records of your progress. I play 10 games of Fargo per set. Then 10 sets. That equals 100 games. That takes me about three weeks.I take the average of that hundred games and keep that as my record by date. If there isn't...

Good info That's what I'm talkin' about. Good info Macguy. Thanks!
