Moving to a new (to me) house with a 9' table. Need light. In doing a lot of reading I see lots of recommendations for Perimeter, and some for Lite Systems, but few comments from people who have had or seen both. I'm considering the Perimeter 9' and the Lite Systems RectanGi (rounded I...

I have a 9' table that is also a dining table. For reference a shot is below that shows it both ways. In my current house I have cans in the ceiling with eyeballs that light it reasonably well. I am moving. The new house is styled differently, and the room will be a lot smaller, so that the...

Real novice at this and looking to understand a bit better. With a home table got a bunch of Brunswick Centennial cues. Took one to BilliardBills's and he sold me a OB Pro LD shaft and precision layered tip medium (very nice guy, very helpful BTW). This was my experimentation into LD cues...

New-ish home table, Simonis 760 tan cloth over slate, lightly used at home. I had a small stain, maybe grease or ink or something. Tiny, like 3mm by 0.5mm, and read a bit including here, and tried taking it out with warm water and a bit of woolite. I vacuumed thoroughly first. Yes, I read...

We were in New Orleans at the Destrehan Plantation wandering around when they showed us a room (which we could not enter, just look through glass) which was the billiard room. I asked the guide if it was period authentic, and she had no clue, saying "A University provided it when they helped...

Caveat: Beginner, practicing. I find I am improving on general accuracy. While I am far from perfect knowing where to aim, my issue has mostly been hitting the OB where I am aiming. That is getting much better and more consistent with practice, and watching lots of videos and reading...

Scenario: I've never been much of a player, and have not played for 12 years, and just got a table and starting to learn again. I wanted to understand the whole low deflection issue, and also tips. With the kind assistance of Billiard Bills (Bill Lister) I first got a new tip, and now have a...

The new pockets I have (from Canada Billiards) are a bit dry and cracking. I put some saddle soap on the top part and it is much better, and will follow up with some conditioner (thought I had some but can't find it, so have to order). I've cared for leather for many years when we had horses...

New to pool, again. Was without a table for 12 years, never really took it seriously when I had one, but now have a nice table and a lot of spare time. Been practicing, and I know of no issue that a new cue will solve for me, i.e. I am not looking for something specific. But still I want one...

This is not so much a review, as I am a definite novice, so I hesitate to say whether aspects of the table are good or bad. But I can take some photos, and tell you about what I observed. We ordered this table because a dining conversion was a requirement to get one in the house. We looked at...

Getting a new table installed hopefully next week, a Canada Billiards La Condo. I tried doing homework on the dealer, they use their own installer, hopefully made a good choice, but that choice is done. I've had pool tables off and on over the years but never paid much attention or took it...

Buying a new table (Canada Billiards Stainless 9'), placing order probably monday. Haven't had a table for 12 years, and even then did not pay all that much attention to the details. Long drive to the nearest billiards store. So for someone who basically knows that the table should have the...

Planning for a new table, and the table will have 60" of clearance all the way around (from the playing surface edge). Might be able to get 61". Except in one corner of the table, there is a china hutch planned that is low (and not yet purchased). There's ample room to stand and shoot, but we...

After a number of years without a table at all, my wife and I may have agreed on a path forward. To work, we need to get a table that realistically converts to a dining table, and must look like nice furniture. For me it must be a nice table as well, 8' or preferably 9'. After a lot of web...
