    Brunswick Gold Crown 2 was not leveled correctly.

    Not a mechanic but I do all my own work. I would slap a level on the table and move it around. Find the low spot and make an adjustment of the feet and keep doing that until it is better. Can’t hurt, you can always reverse it and it won’t affect the slate. Now if the slate is uneven then you...

    So now I have a Diamond

    Called Diamond today to ask about upgrading the table to add the leveling system and getting the new ballistic nylon pockets. Will be 600ish shipped but it will need to get into their production. So the table stays in pieces until it would arrive. To wait or not to wait? That is the question...

    So now I have a Diamond

    To start. But it will be up to the wife once we finish the kitchen/pool room remodel. It takes her forever to figure out what “tones” she wants. She has had 4 different colors of swatches of paint on the bedroom fireplace for a year lol. She is buying a new rug as I type so she seems good with...

    So now I have a Diamond

    Yeah I have 860 on my table now, and I have played on 760 and yup, it is real fast. Didn't think about trading for HR. Good idea. I am gonna set it up with the 760 Blue (wife don't like the green LOL) so the green could be up for trading!

    Pechauer Cues

    What ☝️said. I have 2, a 30 year old pro hustler that looks as good as new and hits like a truck. The other, I just this week, sent back to have them rewrap it. The IL was starting to unravel. No biggie, their warranty is for life of the original owner. Now I have a Joss as well and it is my...

    My preference is always Birkenstocks with black socks.

    Your First Time

    Interesting question. Pool has played a significant role in my life. I first held a cue about 6 or 7 years old. My across the street neighbor had what I can only remember was a GC 1 9’. I was friends with the son and we were allowed to play only under supervision. From there, a pool table as a...
