Several of us saw a young boy, maybe 10 or 12 with incredible talent. Our Organization and several others supported him and his father. Yura loaned him a table for as long as he perused the game. Money was raised and instructors contacted to get him to the World Junior 3-Cushion Championships...

I'm not a cue builder but I was shown from a good builder on method for adjusting points. He grabbed a pack of Rolling Papers, which were always handy, and slipped one between the jaws and cue. One paper thickness moved the culprit a fair bit. Kinda thinking this could become a chase your tail...

You should watch the whole video but start at 17:40 to get an idea of the pattern. These guys are calibrating a granite surface plate used in a metrology lab where near perfect is required.

Some are keepers. When I buy a cue, I plan on keeping it. Forever! Regret selling all the cues I once owned. They all went cause I was broke.

Worth $4,995.00?

Please explain. One Molecule of Water = .... 2 Hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen = One molecule and also = more stars in the universe?? Confused

Can this help me to pocket balls even though I rarely try? Do I need to go down this rabbit hole? The vid is very cool. You're the science guy. I know this is a joke... But ??? But, Is there anything here?

Depends on who's doing the work?

You using the Shag type or Short/Normal Pile Pads?

What the heck are you talking about? Teach Me Please! Have you forked up a C-Note yet?

I came into this discussion late, and haven't read through this at all. My take is, I've seen plenty of people with talent that could possibly develop into a World Champion. I've seen super talented players that beat most that came to town. These players didn't have the ambition for a World...

But I learned on AMF and AE Schmidt. Maybe that's why I gave it up?

I'm just guessing since I haven't played on new cloth in decades. My guess is a simple cross side shot, say ob is 1diamond from opposite pocket there wouldn't be a change. If you're hitting a 3, 4 or 5 rail bank or even a long cross corner shot, I would expect it to go long. Especially if you...

Gr Great vid and he answered all my objections throughout, except, I don't like the balls rubbing together. I don't know if that's a real problem or not. It just seems to be for me. That said, this design is 10,000% better than nothing and eliminates hand cleaning Easy and Cheap. I"m lucky...

"Polishing Compound" works well on scratched balls. I used it for years till I bought a machine. Use a damp terrycloth rag. Do not use "Rubbing Compound!" McGuires PlastX is good stuff. Less aggressive than Polishing Compound. There's other plastic cleaners that work well too but this is...

I'll let the Pro Mechanics answer the rubber question. But on my old 1920's Brunswick I purchased Kleber rubber and hired a cabinet maker to modify the angle on rail to comply with European style 4 sided rubber. I'll search around to find the instructions ,from Bob Leatherby. I may have lost...

Metro Vac is a great vacuum. Auto Detailers use them But its not low power. I use the Vac N Blow but they have plenty of other styles. https://metrovac.com/

Working with torque tools and torque calibration equipment for a few decades, I believe your statement isn't 100% accurate. Simply explained: In order to calibrate a torque wrench, the wrench is loaded on a mechanical device called a Loader. The Loader is connected to a torque transducer which...

I would never, ever, leave my cue for 2hours in 100deg temps. I suppose if I had a $100 cue it wouldn't matter much. I don't own anything like that. I take care of my cues, like I take care of my dog.
