    Gold Crown model question

    Been a long time since I posted here but I am in the market for a used 8ft pool table. I can't afford a Diamond but have been looking around for some GC. I see a lot of GC3's discussed but not much on GC4's. Is there something with the 4s that people try to avoid them or are they just not as...

    My first 860 install

    Here are the pictures of my second recovering job and the first one with 860. I did Velocity Pro the first time and it was a completely different experience this time. The quality of the two are very different. Simonis is not as forgiving but I learned a couple tricks this time. Very tight...

    My first cloth replacement

    Well here is my first time ever "working" on a table. I decided to replace the cloth with Velocity Pro. The bed is very tight and plays much better than the old, worn out Mali. By the time I got to the last rail I was figuring out how to eliminate the waves very easily. All in all I am very...
