No need for the aramith cueball if you go dynasphere, the cueball (and the other balls) that comes with the set is super high quality. Edit: You asked about the tungsten set. They play great, as in among the best balls I've ever played with great, but after 6 months plus I'm still getting used...

There are a lot of people out there peeing without even realizing it. Incontinence is a hell of a thing, just sprayin it all over the place.

I don't know about the 7' being the easiest. My average on 7' valley and 9' brunswick tables is very similar, but on my buddy's 8' Olhausen it's a bit higher. I think the 8' is ideal for straight pool; not too many long shots, but not nearly the crowding problem you get on a 7 footer. Right in...

What's the overall score now? Edit: Nevermind. You were too quick for me.

You are talking out of your ass. I have asthma, my lungs are severely damaged from lung cancer/radiation, and have serious heart issues. This makes me high risk, so I wear a mask whenever I seldomly leave home to protect myself. I manage just fine. If you're so fragile you can't survive wearing...

I'm a 14.1 evangelist. Would preach it wherever I played (back when I left the house, in the beforetimes) but I love me some 8-ball too.

I just pull the cueball out of the main ball return, have the cueball return taped over so it doesn't get dusty. I have a purple logo duramith magnetic ball ordered though. I'm sure that'll play just fine with the dynaspheres I use. Edit: And to answer your actual question, My table came with...

Replacing just the rubber and facings costs less than $100. My point was that he probably doesn't want pro-cut unless he already knows he wants pro-cut. For the average player it will make the table frustrating.

I disagree with both of these suggestions to an extent. I'm assuming the OP is looking to get a good setup as inexpensively as possible, because he's looking used at used valleys. In that case, I'd recommend dynasphere tungsten balls. They are basic looking, but use top quality materials for...

Older used ones are pretty much all the same I think, basic and solid. The newest ones have flush pocket caps and use 5 bolt rails, but you probably won't find deals on those.

So your point was not to call him a thief, just to belittle his lack of skill? Is that accurate? "What exactly was he trying to say by posting it? Wasn’t building it enough or did he need the approval of others to solidify how well he can copy someone else’s product?" Why did you post your...

Saw all the posts and thought there was an interesting exchange with ideas for building ball cleaners. I was... wrong.

The cheap and easy way I used was to just use extra thick neoprene facings when I redid my table. I'm very happy with it. This is what I used: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B000MAJ0S6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I should be good. Besides that one measurement I was planning to build everything else to suit my setup. Starting with a modified upside down drill press, for the motor and drivetrain, and working upwards from there. Thanks though, you've been helpful! Edit: Actually if you know the rpm it...

I don't know, but there's no way it harms them. The main reason for copying this design is to use their tried and true carpet pads, which I purchased. If I was willing to experiment with different carpets until I found a good one, I'd have gone with a design like the other homemade one posted in...

Thanks. This info has been surprisingly hard to find.

I'm doing the same thing, already have the carpet and spindle kit. If you don't mind checking for me, what is the exact diameter of the opening on the machine? I'd like it to be exactly the same as on the diamond as I assume they've tested for the best spindle fit.

My table is in my one car garage. It was uninsulated and only usable in summer until I found a circa 1950s propane furnace that was used in a lake cabin. Got it for $60 on an online classifieds site. I installed that and a carbon monoxide detector, vented it properly, and run it off of 20lb...

I think it's a great idea. Easy enough to store on the ceiling around the lights with rope and pulleys too.
