    Diamond arrived update

    My antennae always go up when 100% payment is required to place an order for such a big ticket item. I like to have at least some leverage. I recently declined to follow through on an estimate for a whole house window shutter job because 100% payment was required up front. I went with another...

    2020 Home Pool Table Sales

    Took almost 14 weeks for an Olhausen furniture table to be delivered. They said it was a combination of increased orders and a shortage of manpower that caused the long time frame.

    Granddaughter's Table Design

    My seven year-old granddaughter gave me this hand painted card for Fathers Day. Her design, if produced, would greatly help my game. And it needs help greatly.

    I was originally going with Simonis 860 Green as I thought that's the way God intended it to be. I was outvoted by my wife, daughters and grandchildren. Glad I went with the Tournament Blue though. My old eyes see better on it than green cloth. I find the Simonis 860 much faster than cloth I...

    Ralph Greenleaf - One of the greatest to play the game

    Growing up my grandfather (Born in the 1890's) often spoke of seeing Ralph Greenleaf play in New York City. He thought he was greater than Mosconi and all the other greats. I didn't know the incredible, and sad, story of Greenleaf until I read the book cited below. It is well written and flows...

    boogieman said: "If it's at all possible, see if he can replace the stock facings with 3/16 60 durometer neoprene. It might not be an option, but it's a nice improvement right out of the gate. It also has to be done before the rails are covered. I have an Olhausen and I love it, but the stock...

    Luther Lassiter vs Jack Breit

    I was young in 1966 and I got to watch Luther Lassiter in competition with Cisero Murphy just after Christmas at the Golden Cue in Queens, NY. The games were amazing but so was the side action games played by some great players after the tournament games. Much more money to be made in the...

    New Table Arriving next week ... But

    It isn't a Diamond or Brunswick GC. It's an Olhausen Hampton 8'x4' (furniture table with Simonis Tournament Blue cloth). It was a compromise, for appearance sake, with my wife of almost 50-years. That's how one stays married. Mostly for use by my grandkids but it will also give me something to...
