We need new rubber on a 70's vintage 6/12' Brunswick gold crown snooker table. It has original step rubber with a 1/4" flat facing for different size balls. We use from 2 1/16" to 2 1/4" balls and original rubber accommodates well. Tried everyone from Brunswick to Muellers. Some have step...

Do I use 1/4" on all pockets or 1/4" on corners and 1/8" on the sides? 1/4" on the sides seems like it would make them too small.

Our golf tAble now has simonis 300 and is plenty fast, however the thin cloth really magnifies the rolls. Any suggestions for cloth with comparAble speed but maybe thicker?

Just got ap today and was surprised that very few could break 20mph. I know some pros can aproach 30mph. What are some average speeds around your room? It is a fun ap, if you don't have it, it is only $4.99. A lot cheaper than a radar gun!

for a gold crown?? Measure with or without cloth on the bed??

or just desperate? Out of towner comes in today whose name many of you would recognize. He is looking for an old local from whom he won a little over a thousand a couple weeks ago. The old man is still willing to gamble but wants 2 games in a race to 7. The out of towner hangs around all day...

when applied to pool. Seems that pool exercises both sides of the brain and the communication between them. http://courses.dce.harvard.edu/~phils4/splitbrain.pdf#search=%27severed%20corpus%20callosum

Anyone have the correct cut angles for pockets on a GCIII and GCI(assuming they are the same)? Seems like I remember 11degrees vertically from the top of the rail to the slate, but not sure. Have no clue on angles of side and corners.

The great thing about this forum is that most people here are striving to improve their game. Most realize that it takes a lot of work and practice, others are still looking for the magic pill. In that spirit, I would like to share something I learned years ago that took my game to another...

We sell quit a few longer cues and my supplier wants $50+ for old school box cases. Called Porper and they want a $500 initial order. Anyone have a good supplier for cases to acomodate(sp) butts and shafts up to about 32"? Tried Varner, Cue and Case, and Schmelke to no avail. Cheap clothe...

We took delivery a few weeks ago of a new lathe from Lee. It is very precise and solid. Lee customized exactly what we need for our small room in Flint, Mich. at a very reasonable price. I really like the 1 3/8" headstock and the steel bed. We do not intend to ever build cues, but the bed is...

May not work for you, but it works for us. Table time is $3/person/hour. Whenever someone uses over $10 in time between 12 and 6 or between 6 and 12, we give them a card with their name and date on the back. We explain that they only need 4 more specials in the next 2 weeks to get a free...

The moment you strike the cue ball? This has been discussed many times before and it seems that most good players see the cue ball contact the ob. The question is are you seeing the spot on the ob, the cb, the shaft, the pocket or some combination of all? This is an area that seems to change...

Broke off ferrule on a quality custom shaft by accident and have access to factory qualified predator repairman. Considering having it bored, filled and capped with a predator ferrule to see if it will improve performance. Anyone have experience doing this?? Posted same question on 'ask the...

Anyone here ever take a regular shaft and put a predator ferrule on it? I broke my ferrule off a quality custom shaft and am considering having it bored, filled and capped like a predator. Any experience with this??

Anyone hear of such a thing for instructional use? Nothing showed up on search. Would like to illustrate contact point through a clear cue ball. Looked around here for a clear hollow sphere or even a glass ball and could not find anything close to 2 1/4". Clear ball sets are over $100. Just...

A few years ago, I found his system that was printable with diagrams. Someone absconded with it and I cannot find the original site. Anyone know the address, it is about 10 pages of diagrams. The new site does not have a printable version that I can find. thanks

Anyone know who builds reasonably priced cases that will hold a but up to 34"?? I know about Porper, anyone else??

if all three slates should be leveled first? Also, won't the slate be difficult to separate again and won't pieces of slate chip off and stick to each other?? I can see how gluing could help a crowned slate, but do you glue all the way across the the slate line or just at a few spots??

Anyone know of a slow motion camcorder for stroke analysis? I think Casio has one but it can run $1000.
