Where did you find a picture / description of the Mosconi Cup balls for this year?

Fair point. "Better" is very subjective. A better description may be "more consistently". I own 17 or so sets. I have 3 sets less than 5 years old. Arcos II, Aramith Black, and Super Pro. These 3 play the most consistently. I can not really tell any difference from set to set. My newer...

There is TRULY a difference between top quality balls, such as are manufactured by Aramith, and all others. Another SIGNIFICANT difference lies between Aramith balls of many years ago, and today. The tolerances and formulations have improved quite a bit over the years. Modern, top line...

I like the measles ball. The only cue ball I have personally played that I just do not like is the 90's Era Blue Circle Centennial. I have the red measles ball by Aramith, the black one from the Tournament Black set, and the Black Triangle one from the Arcos II set. I can not tell any...

Always inspiring and amazing!

Having actually tried this on an old set with some wear and slight size difference I found this to be the case. I was using a template by Accu Rack that moves the balls together. If you have not tried that particular product you may be pleasantly surprised. so... Not WRONG and Not NOT TRUE...

I have found the use of a template instead of a rack gives a very tight rack very consistently regardless of thes other factors

Rule #1 is make sure it is a brand name, quality cloth. Next, gray will give good contrast for most all ball sets. If YOU enjoy it and it looks good with your decor / space, please enjoy. Don't worry about what we all think. My table is about the color of a confederate soldier's uniform. I...

These are currently available but are laser etched rather than inlay. Still very beautiful though.

This, also after years of use and hundreds of runs through a cleaner, the finish is also different. The brand new balls are more "slick"

While this sounds over simplified, I am a martial arts instructor and I teach stance and foot position for optimal balance as a vocation. You can weaken your ability to balance and to punch (use a cue stick) by adjusting your stance from front to back. The reason is that this creates...

Buying a $1,000 cue and thinking it will make you play better! 😀

A small update based on comparison with a Duramith set and my Arcos II set. I recently got a set of Aramith Black Duramith. I just liked the style. They are very different and unique, and I also wanted to have a set of the Duramith balls everyone speaks so highly of. My observation is only...

Of course! Come over and play a few games with us and pick the set you want to borrow :-) I honestly do have WAY more than I need, but I like to have a new and different set on the table every few weeks. I like to keep it fresh and interesting. Always looking for a way to add more fun for...

I have about 16 or 17 sets now. I change them out every few weeks. As I change them out, I clean the set that is leaving and put them in the box so they are good as new when they rotate back in. What I am currently playing with for the next few weeks stays on the table / in the pockets...

Here is what I see: Clean Gleam - 8 ball machine $349.00 and currently out of stock. I watched the video by the company and it seems to only clean in a straight line. The balls don't seem to move much off of the center line and I wonder about the quality of the cleaning. In their video, you...

While I haven't really been in the market for a motorized ball cleaner, I became curious after looking at the forums here regarding the Ballstar, and Diamond machines. This Chinese machine came up on a search engine and I saw it at Ali Express for about $280 shipped to my home. There is also...

I have 3. My first was a super customized Viking F50 in 2006. Beautiful cue that I still love and use as my go to. I discovered a LOT of warp early this year for the first time, sent it back with both shafts, and it came back perfect and looking JUST LIKE I BOUGHT IT all those years ago...

I see it like the television or my car. I don't really know how either of them work in great detail, but I really don't care as long as they work well. I was introduced to this concept by Anthony Beeler and have absolutely embraced it for several months now. I don't know really why it helps...
