    Are all cushions perfect right angles to each other?

    Yeah, it's from a dealer. I think I just might give them a call.

    Are all cushions perfect right angles to each other?

    I was looking at my pool table and I noticed something odd. It just looked like it moved. Like one end "moved", it's hard to explain. When I look at right on, it's as if the pool table is not perfect square to the rest of the room. Almost like someone picked it up, and deliberately put it...

    Olhausen 10 Foot Champion Pro Tables

    Those things are huge. No wonder why Earl was using that javelin.

    An idea of the decline of pool.

    I wouldn't have to do all that to know the price of a pool table is a strike against pool in relation to getting kids to play. All you have to do is look at what kids play and ask "can pool compete?" Wii 200 bucks, PS3 $349, XBOX 360 $400 Pool table 1300 to start for Olhausen base line model...

    An idea of the decline of pool.

    I totally agree. Pool needs to be where children are, not just in bars or smokey pool halls where people are hustling. Neither place is kid friendly. In a world where kids have easy access to a Playstation or Wii, pool seems like a relic. When you think about it almost is. Pool tables are...

    Pool Table Cover

    I had this exact same problem. Here's what I have. A Hood pool table cover. When I realized our cat was jumping on the table I added a vinyl mat. I'm using the mat in reverse. The mat has spikes on the underside to help hold it in place. Our cat did not like the spikes at all, it taught her a...

    Are all slate screws holes supposed to be filled with bondo?

    Thank you Chevy! The pic says ALOT. Now the question is what to do about it? It may or may not happen to me. I was thinking of just letting it go, and if it ever happen in a few years, just ask them to come and recover the table with no labor charge, while I supply the cloth. Would that be fair...

    Are all slate screws holes supposed to be filled with bondo?

    I didn't think it would matter as the balls are not able to touch that area, I was just wondering. Thanks a ton fellas.

    Are all slate screws holes supposed to be filled with bondo?

    I've been playing on my new table and I've noticed there are "holes" under the cushions. What I mean, is I can run my fingers on the slate under the cushions and can feel depressions where the slate screws are. I assumed that when they used bondo/beeswax, they do the slate seams AND the holes...

    Water and Simonis

    I had thought about calling the guys back. But realistically, what could they do besides recover it again? It doesn't seem to affect the balls, and it does seem to be getting lighter. I think I'll give it a few more days, I don't like to cause problems. But I understand it should have never...

    Pool, Self Respect and Tournaments

    Just an observation... Isn't Earl known for being a hothead? Well if you put him in a Yves Saint Laurent Suit, do think he would act respectable and quell the outbursts? Dressing nicely won't produce a gentleman's demeanor, it won't command respect if you're acting ill tempered. In fact, it's...

    Water and Simonis

    I have a huge water stain on the side pocket. Should I try the iron?

    Water and Simonis

    So my new pool table was just installed, and I was watching them. Well as they were stretching the cloth they were spraying water on it. Not that I know much about installing a pool tables, but I can't recall anything I've heard around here about it. Is that normal? Because I thought any liquid...

    When did you do your first run out?

    My first run was a little over a week ago. First, a little background. I play on a Sears special, so I don't even know if you can officialy say I have a pool table yet. Well, I've took a strong interest in 14.1, so I've been watching DVD's and matches. I've loved the 2006 world championships I...

    Why is Darts doing better than any Cuesport ?

    Darts is huge over in the UK, but I wonder why. Actually, why is any sport popular in any given region? Why is soccer popular throughout the world, but has very little footing compared to the more "American" sports such as basketball or football? I have no idea. I was watching this, just to...

    8ft brunswick leg levelers

    I'm having similar issues, I'm getting a new pool table and was trying to figure out a way to deal with this. My floor isn't level, there are small hills and valleys which would obviously cause problems for something that needs to be perfectly straight. My findings were this: Get a pool...

    Recruiting Pro and Top Players to be Featured in Virtual Pool 4

    Can you put Dippy Dave in it? Not that I really even know who he is. It would just be funny to play someone name Dippy. Second, I assume it's PC, is it going to be available via Steam. If not, how are you handling the multiplayer aspect. Meaning, will there be dedicated servers, or will one...

    Rap VS pool

    That doesn't surprise me, I have no doubt that Hip Hop culture has a larger following than billiards.
