I'm looking to sell my 10' Gabriels carom table to someone in New Orleans, about 45 minutes from where I live. Can anyone recommend a mechanic to disassemble, transport, and reassemble? I have a message in to Yura on Facebook but in the meantime I wanted to see what other options are out there...

I've listed my table for sale: https://forums.azbilliards.com/threads/gabriels-10-carom-table-for-sale.573906/ If you know anyone looking, please pass it along. Thanks

In a bittersweet turn of events I'm listing my 10' Gabriels billiard table for sale. I don't want to get rid of it but as my kids have gotten older they've fallen in love with pool and playing pool with them is 100x better than playing billiards alone. I need to move the Gabriels out to make...

I'm taking the family through France, northern Italy, Austria, Germany and Amsterdam in November, but I haven't yet found anything like a 'room locator' app to facilitate finding places to play. Does anyone have advice on how best to find places to play? Also, what tends to be the 'norm' in...

I don't know what to make of this update from Caudron on who he's playing against. Is there really a guy in the tournaments who calls himself 'Hacker' and plays in a mask? And please don't tell me to use the 'search' feature for 'Korean hacker' before posting my question :)

I'm watching some of these YouTube videos of the 2021 Duke Challenge and the red ball appears to have a black spot on it, in addition to the white measle dots. The white dots make perfect sense to me, but I cannot imagine what purpose the black spot serves. Am I missing something obvious?

Came across a cool video of Dani and Semih playing in one of their homes. I assume it's Semih's, since the table is of Turkish make and Dani does/did have his own brand. Home Game 2020 by 🇪🇸 Daniel Sanchez vs. 🇹🇷 Semih Sayginer at 3 cushion billiard. - YouTube

Watching the old Mcreery video someone mention in another thread, the shot at 10:30 got me wondering -- how much 'deflection' are we seeing in this shot? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUr0d4K-2iY I suppose I ask from the perspective of a guy who has read all the high deflection, low...

I've decided to focus on learning some three cushion systems in a more dedicated way than I have previously, between the recent threads on systems here and the fact that a health issue will soon keep me confined to my home for several months in 2020 (with a 10' Gabriels in my billiard room --...

So, a couple years ago I saw an ad for a ceiling-mounted projector system that Caudron endorsed that let you laser-mark and recreate ball position to play against folks in another location. Kind of like the old chess matches by mail, I took it as. It got me wondering if any of y'all here would...

Does anyone remember the thread from this forum that had a link to several pages of billiards-related artwork? I recall really wanting to buy and frame some of them, and even thought I remembered posting a comment or two in that thread, but I can't seem to find it. I've tried searching and...

I need to have a tip put on a cue I bought from a forum member here. It's a small, light cue designed for straight rail, and it got me wondering -- do players use different tip hardness for different disciplines of carom? My primary 3 cushion Kilby cue came with Moori mediums that I love and...

Goofy thread to start, but I found my old set of Aramiths I used to play English Billiards when I lived in New Zealand and Australia for a few years. Threw 'em on the Gabriels and WOW, what a difference! I sure didn't think they were so small at the time I was using them every day ...

I'm sure this has been asked before, but with the ever-changing nature of equipment I'd like to ask again -- -- -- How often do you find yourself chalking your cue? In the past I regularly played cheaper cues, usually with LePro tips for cost savings. I chalked about as regularly with those...

I'll be in Boston a few days the second week of May for work. Anyone around interested in meeting up someplace to hit a few? I don't really feel much like doing the whole 'dig through the Places to Play guides, hope something works' thing ... I just don't seem to have much luck with that...

Thought I'd post a few photos of a custom set of table pads I bought from Heartland Table Pads out of Indiana. They were made and shipped within a week of my order, and the guy was real good to deal with, asking for specifics on the table dimensions so everything would be just right. It's 5...

So I've always wanted to try some of the artistic shots but never wanted to beat up anyone's table. Now that I have my own, I don't want to beat that one up either... What are your thoughts on using a 4x4" snippet from the old Simonis 300 that came off the table that Yura left with me as a...

So I bought a set of score beads like we had in the room where I learned to play: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005GVL4NU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 But I don't have a light that I can hang them from in the way I've always seen it done. I have a traditional ceiling fan...

So, I know it's probably just an exercise in repetition to say what a good job My. Yura does with installations, but the work he did for me yesterday delivering and setting up a 10' heated Gabriels was top-notch. Just a really great guy to work with, and happy to answer all my questions to...

Hi All, My wife and I will be buying a home and I'm trying my best to hold out for one with space for a 10 ft. heated table. I understand it may be some time before I get the table itself, but want to have the space available all the same. I know I'm not the first to try (and maybe fail) but...
