I find that a wet microfibre cloth every few weeks followed by a dry one - and leather burnishing - is fine. I occasionally use denatured alcohol on a paper towel and maybe every 6 months use a wet magic eraser. To respond to the question on how to smooth wood without removing it, I find...

Are you the Canadian Ghosst from old RSB days? If so, hello and welcome back! The pause really helped me too (Thanks Scott Lee). But I wasn't surprised- however the video really helped me see how I was rushing the transition. I had been advised to pause before but it never sunk in until I saw...

Earl will need them to keep from floating up. I'm assuming Aquaman has some kind of natural buoyancy compensation system.

Put Earl and Aquaman on a table under 100' of water and no scuba tanks and I'm taking Aquaman every day.

Fair enough. It didn't seem that far away (but I'm not familiar with the geography) and I'm surprised a mechanic would charge that much, especially if GCs are rare in your area - because they might pick up for themselves on spec or for someone else with the "if you ever find one let me know"...

What about the craigslist GC1 I noted in an earlier post? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

She's an outlier only because none of the other top women play much straight pool. The same reason that the Europeans are now the favourite in the men's 14.1 events.

I hear people say things like that all the time without having been to the other contenders. I haven't been to it (or the others), but I'd like to hear from someone who has been to the Ice House, Griff's and to Fargo Billiards for a real compare and contrast. I want to go to all three!

I don't think so. I know the Miz played some exhibition matches in a combined pool/snooker format. The closest is probably Alex Pagulayan (Canadian not American, of course) who tried to get his tour card and fell one match short. Corey also tried for his card twice. On the other hand, in...

In. I will try one Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Do factor in moving/set up and new cloth (like Simonis). Maybe $500 more. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

How about this one: https://atlanta.craigslist.org/wat/spo/d/brunswick-gold-crown-pool/6163317377.html Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I don't think that's a fair version of what happened. As I understand it (and I was not involved, so take it for what it is worth) the cash for the Toronto event was promised for a World 8b Championship event and my own view is that if that event had come to pass the money would have been...

If I lived in Atlanta, my first and last call would be to Mark Gregory (AZ member and an undisputed master table mechanic). I know he has done fancy and expensive complete restorations and rebuilds, but if money is tight I would tell him that and see what he can work out.

Shane just posted the following from Ian Anderson of the WPA: Dear All I am still awaiting confirmation from phone conversations today about the Jinan Heritage Classic 8-Ball event scheduled for Jinan next month. The news I’m awaiting is most likely not going to be good. They did say the event...

I know this an old post, but since the thread is revived I want to point out that I had maple floors under and around my table, and balls jumped off did make little dimples on the floor. When my new place is ready, I'm looking into cork flooring. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I would like to see you (or anyone else) shoot on a live stream and see if you think you shoot up to your potential. Of course none of the amateurs (on their best day in dead stroke) play like SVB or Alex (on their worst days), but I don't think it is fair to discount the pressure of playing in...

Shane has just posted on FB that he, Billy and Sky are all skipping the China event due to these issues.

I use a Cuetec magnetic holder that I bought a few years ago. In this case, the magnetic part is attached to the chalk. I liked it because it is a super powerful magnet whereas others I had seen the chalk would fall off if you knocked it. Here is a link to it (for some reason to some supplier...

Add to that simply familiarity. The player who plays with the same SP knows the cue and its properties, rather than using a new Wallabuska every time. By the way, there has been discussion on here recently about what a true hustler's cue should look like these days, with some really neat...
