    Thermostat setting for Gabriels Imperator 10' table

    What is an acceptable temperature range for the thermostat on a Gabriels Imperator 10' table. I have seen wide ranges listed. I would also be curious to know the proper table height from the floor to the top rail surface.

    A question about UMB World Cup scoring

    Example 1: In some world cup events, if player A breaks to start the match and gets to the winning score total and player B ties the score, there is a playoff where each player breaks and scores as many points as he can. The player that scores the most points in the playoff wins the match...

    USBA Calendar Question

    Why does the USBA calendar still not show the 2016 Verhoeven Open August 1 - 6? The UMB calendar shows the tournament on these dates as does 3cushionbilliards.com. I find this curious, especially since it is the premier 3C event in the US and the only tournament that draws most of the world's...

    2015 Verhoeven Open

    I am interested in attending this tournament as a spectator in 2015. The phone # listed for Carom Corner Productions on their web site no longer works and calling Carom Cafe was not productive either. The event is not scheduled yet on the USBA, UMB web sites or on Kozoom. I want to find out if...

    My new custom Schuler by Jacoby 3C cue

    A few months ago I had Brandon Jacoby of Jacoby Custom Cues build a custom Schuler for me based on my own design and specs. The cue is a mixture of cocobolo, burl maple and tulip wood with turquoise and cocobolo inlays. I am super happy with the build quality of the cue. It plays very similar...

    I am interested in acquiring an original Schuler carom cue in excellent condition. I am not interested in SLC models. As the butts are the same for carom or pool, if you have an original Schuler butt without carom shafts I am interested in seeing your cue as well. Please post pics of your cue.

    Richard made this cue for me in 1973 while I was going to the University of Houston. At that time his shop was located in his garage. To the best of my knowledge the cue is made from birds eye maple and ebony with ivory dots. Cue experts would probably know better than me. There are 4 points...

    Is it possible to modify my Schuler to accept a screw in butt extension?

    I am playing with an original Schuler that is 30 - 35 years old. I would like to be able to use an extension with this cue. The only extension design that I am willing to consider is the Hager slip on design (which is no longer available) or a screw in type for the butt (which my cue is not...

    Cue tip sanding block

    In every video I see Caudron and Blomdahl playing in, they are using a thin sanding block on their tip between innings to slightly rough the tip. The only similar item I can find on the internet is the Caudron tip sanding block which I cannot find from USA suppliers. Does anyone know where a...
