    Frustrated with Bridging

    FYI - Forum Sponsor Has Samsara Tips

    First - I am no way shape or form employed (or related :) ) to our sponsor.

    How to keep your newly covered table like new

    I have just had my 8' Olhausen table recovered with Simonis 860. Though hesitant at first, I now have absolutely no regrets on the extra cost. Wow does this cloth make the table so perfect. The burn marks from the balls racked in the break are starting to show, even though I keep it barely...

    Video Taping Your Game

    I did a search but only found a few posts regarding video taping one's game. Does anyone have a recommendation for a fairly inexpensive video camera that would work "very well" in taping ones game. It would have to be able to be on a tripod but other than that I am not sure what to get. I have...
