    Custom Gold Crown Light

    It should look great. I was thinking about doing it to my light, but I'm not sure. The tangerine orange is a little loud. Just curious, what do you think? I have extra paint.

    Where's Glen Hancock (Therealkingcobra)?!?

    Some dickhead called me out on a thread and accused me of being Mexican Ronnie (Ron Rosas) My alter ego players better pool than yours...and didn't ripoff anyone's rails either!

    Custom Gold Crown Light

    Wow, you're doing a great job!! When I was searching for a GC light I found 8 of them. So I bought them all. I only needed 2, so I sold 5, used 2 and kept a spare. Anyway, I don't remember what they weigh but I'm sure yours are much lighter that the GC light. Are you going to paint it to match...

    Breaking rules...what am I missing here?

    Good idea. But under that rule, I would hit that funky sukka with reckless abandon before I passed it up. It would be a fun rule to try though.

    Gold Crown Barn Find

    I just saw this thread and read thru the whole thing. I wanted to jump to the end to see the finished table, but I didn't. Now the suspense is killing me! Lol! Anyway, you guys are doing a great job on these Gold Crowns. Seeing three GC 1's near full restoration at the same time is fun! I have...

    The unfixable pool table

    Hello Skip, Sorry to hear about your table debacle. But what you are describing could be rectified by any competent table mechanic. Sadly one that doesn't know if he's worked on tables for 3 years or 5 years is either full of crap or sniffing too much glue. That being said, I don't think...

    best way to hit straight-in out ball?

    Yes Bob, please do tell? "And they don't seem to be doing it with their wrists or grip hand." Are they using their chin? If only their 2 hands are thouching the cue using an open bridge, the stroke hand/wrist is the only one that could press down on the cue....seams like?

    SVB aiming vid..................

    I'm not sure who is making it much harder than it is. But you accused JoeyinCali of completely misunderstanding what Shane was talking about. Yet Joey knew Shane was pointing to a specific spot on the shaft to aim from. There's more to it than you understand. Shane is explaining how to aim the...

    SVB aiming vid..................

    Exactly ! So now when that shot comes up you have a choice. Do I aim using an estimated air gap, or do I use a different location on the shaft that intersects with the edge of the object ball, due to being a larger diameter at that location? Either way, you have to learn the air gap or the...

    SVB aiming vid..................

    Yes, he is pointing to a specific spot on the shaft. I don't think he's laughing at any poor souls either. But if you don't understand what he's doing, then it appears that he's trying to sell snake oil. I understand you're frustration, its hard explain to most people. But it might be...

    Old Diamond Pockets and Black marks on Balls.

    Hey Trent, If the client has "ideas on coating them" I would let the client try them. That way it's not your dime if the "coating" ends up staining the cloth. Just a thought. And remember, black marks matter !

    snooker 5x10 converison

    Any table mechanic who can calibrate rails will be able to do it for you. I don't think you need to cut the slate, the shelf will just be a little deeper. I think GC snooker irons are the same as the pool table irons. Lastly, I don't know much of anything, so talk to some of the guys here...

    Brunswick Centennial

    That's a great table! No disrespect to your dad, but I would never buy something with the condition that I can never sell it, especially if I would have $5K into it before it's usable. However, I would ask him, how about you let me move your table to my house & have it professionally rebuilt...

    Quiet air compressor

    I tried a few good cheaper corded staple guns, but had poor inconsistent results. I was working on my Gold Crown 1. So I asked a professional table mechanic what he used. Without hesitation he said "I've tried many of them, and I will only a Duo-fast Staple Gun & Duo-fast staples. He's been...
