    Poll: Should the For Sale Section Change

    I think it's fine now. All the BS "buddy" bumping with "super deal" ,hits 4000lbs, won't last etc sucked and made the task of looking for something brutal. It also was why you posted up a sale and 3 hours later it was 10 pages deep. I sell many guns on a Pa. gun owners site and they have VERY...

    OKAY...I'm freakin out!

    Here is the GC set up! Rob did GREAT work, his info is below. It is nice to watch a craftsman at work when they REALLY know what they are doing. I learned a ton watching the install, and tried to stay out of the way. After an hour or so I can say it is playing long, and needs heat, but I am...

    OKAY...I'm freakin out!

    I mentioned it to Rob and he said as soon as he hears good things about it he would try it on my table, but he knows Simonis best for now. Didn't want to experiment on my table I guess. G.

    OKAY...I'm freakin out!

    So, Rob is coming over in the morning to complete the install on my GC2 3c table, and now I have to try to sleep tonight :) I have wanted a 3c table within driving distance to play on for years!, and now with a few very well timed pieces of luck, and all the cogs of the universe falling together...

    What is the best tip for 3-cushion?

    I am somewhat new to 3c, but I have been doing cue work for 20 years+. Last week I got a few Kamikazi tips and installed a soft, and a super soft on 2 of my OB2 shafts for 3c. Both work well and I am leaning towards the SS tip myself. For the cost Kamikazi is a GREAT value/product...it seems I...

    Transitioning player questions

    Well, 2 things, I"m waiting for freaking Simonis to catch up on Carom cloth and fill my order! and then Rob from tabletek has to come back to complete the install. We have the table frame and slates on top in the basement now "seasoning" or acclimating. I walk down there 3 times a day hoping...

    Transitioning player questions

    Hi Guys, I'm jumping into 3c head first and have a few questions for you all. My GC2 10' is being installed in my basement (waiting for cloth) and I'm going nuts waiting. 1> I wanted to ask how you all practice? regimented routine? or just any shot giving you issues? 2> how many of you use...

    Was real Ivory ever an option on a custom ordered Meucci cue?

    Yes, over the years Bob Meucci did use real Ivory in some of the "Custom" orders....I have dis-assembled, more then a few Meucci cues to see how they are built and to steal parts, and I will NEVER bad mouth the construction of the "older" models! To keep cost down, most "ivorylike" inlays were...

    Alex Pagulayan going to UK to try pro snooker

    I think all you need to do is hit a red?....not a red and a rail, so if it is early on in the match, there are more reds to hit. G.

    What or who is a flipper?

    Whats with all the anger towards "flippers"? call me one if you want, but I have bought and sold hundreds of cues, some with the intention of making money.....and some go into my collection. I have cash and can get a good deal, another dude wants what I have and I make a few bucks. No one is...

    Wagering, Backing, and Contact Info Please

    I feel the term"backer" is a road partner that pays all expenses, and splits the winnings with the "player" IF and WHEN there is a profit after ALL expenses. I also think of a "backer" as someone who might put a player in an event for a cut of the winnings, BUT is not owed anything if the player...

    Are Low Deflections Shafts Really Worth It?

    You will find out it's all about inside spin with the LD shafts. why?>>> If you think so or not,...we all use a shade of outside spin on most standard cut shots. Those shots I would guess make up about 70% of shots....pure guess there.....so, when we get on the inside of the CB with a standard...

    Q School - Will Alex, Deuel, Melling Qualify?

    you can't talk about bacon and not fill us in on what a "butty" is? I"m guessing it is a sandwich of sorts?

    anyone remember shotgun break story?

    I never heard of this, but it is right up my alley!, I could go down to the basement and reload a softer round with less powder and try again. My loading stuff is about 10 feet from my table so the camera could catch it all!! :) some of the loads I have tried in my shotguns are too fun!!! G.
