I had a 1956 Sportking I refinished and had Barry Emerson from the DFW are install for me about 12 years back. This summer a bad storm came through and wrecked my man cave and did a lot of damage to my table. Insurance, unable to find a replacement, basically wrote me a blank check. My question...

We started a juniors league. The operator has decided to return all proceeds to the kids by giving them their own cue. Does anyone know of an inexpensive cue that is not total junk? I would imagine there is $100 or less to spend per child, but am not sure. I was looking at the Lucky cues by...

Would like to have a cue around 60-62”. What you got?

Hi, I found this cue that I forgot I bought about 10 years back. I never played with it because when it came in the mail, the finish on the handle was messed up. Upon further inspection I believe the handle dried out and caused a crack in the finish. My 10 year old son has taken an interest in...

Ok, so I had one job to do and it was to post this about ten days ago and obviously I just now remembered

I couldnt find a light I liked that was in my price range, so I decided to build one. I figured I could at least match my table.

I have been working on a Sport King for a while now. I am the point where I am ready to install the slate on the frame of the table. I was noticing that the wood backing is in rough shape and I also know that the slate itself isnt perfect. Here are my two questions. 1. The slate backing is 1"...

Is there a link to an instructor database? I am in Tyler Texas and have kicked around the idea of getting some professional guidance.

I found this http://www.chicagobilliardmuseum.org/files/Centennial_DC_1946.pdf in another thread and it is for a Centennial. I was looking at the model on the from and noticed that it says "Model D-C" I have a sportking and I dont know the year, but the model is stamped "D-C" on the back of one...

Anyone familiar with Texas view on VOC regulation and how it would apply to a cuemaker? I am not a cue maker, but I was looking into buying a spray gun for some other projects. I tried reading about it, but honestly not sure if I am reading info that would even pertain to me.

Hi, I have read the post about painting in the forum from a while back. With someone who has limited knowledge of spraying lacquer can anyone please help!? I have a pre 1959 sport king that was painted Texas A&M maroon. I am almost done stripping all of that and I have been researching the new...

So I just got this from a Texas A & M fan, which is obvious by the pics. I have already begun stripping the paint and I stripped one of the corner castings to see how easy it would come off. I used a non-caustic stripper and it worked really well. When I get ready to repaint, do I use a...

Hi, I am about to go get a table, and I will have some help, but I am wondering if 2 able bodied men and may father in law are enough to lift the slates. The table is a 9' sport king and I would like to know how much each piece weighs. I saw Real king cobra comment on a Gold Crown weight a...

In Houston Craigslist, there are 7 tables for sale. They all say "earl" on them and are all 9' tables. Does anyone know if this is a brand or are they stamped with this name for another reason. I could contact the seller, but I didn't want to bother at this time of night.

Can someone help me ID this table. It is on Craigslist and there is a language barrier between me and the seller. Thanks

I was reading some of the older threads on epoxies. I saw that many recommend West Systems. I did a search for places to buy on their website and it appears that I will have to drive to Dallas to get some. Do others have to drive to get theirs or can it be shipped? Also, is there something else...
