    9' foot Diamond Pro needs reassembly - Southwestern Indiana

    Just moved into the area. What should such a job cost if done right? Rails still have cloth, no change. Might as well change the bed cloth which I will obtain. Any nominations?

    Diamond light louvers

    Can someone with access to a Diamond light tell me the dimensions of the "holes" in the louvers? Length, width, and depth please. Seems these are square. If so, the length and width will be the same. If hexagonal, then one dimension across the hex and the depth will do. Thanks in advance...

    Made offer - wanted to escrow with FAST_N_LOOSE

    Made an offer on a cue in the Wanted/For Sale section and wanted to use the escrow service offered by FAST_N_LOOSE as shown on a sticky in that section. Seller says no way, the escrow guy could just keep the cue and my money and we'd both be screwed with no recourse. I say you gotta be...

    Diamond single platter ball polisher Derby discount is on

    Called Diamond today to see if they were running the $400 single platter ball polisher deal they had last year during Derby. Informed the deal was on again this year, I asked if I had to pick it up at the Derby or if they'd ship it to me. Was told they would ship from the factory, so I ordered...

    My new 9' Diamond Pro

    A few months ago, I asked on the forum (can't remember if I started a thread or asked on an existing thread) if anyone would care to post the price they paid for a Diamond Pro because I was in the market for one. Immediately a couple of know-it-alls jumped in and just reamed me for even asking...

    Pool Table Light - Input Needed

    Have the itch for new lighting for a 9' table. Don't particularly like what is available "off the shelf" with a 26" width. I see shadows in certain locations with these. So I'm thinking of going with a 48" wide light with enough bulbs so when I raise the light sufficiently high for head...

    Karen Corr as an Instructor

    My wife and I are big fans of Karen Corr, so last Mother's Day I bought her a 2-hour lesson from Karen. Kind of like the kid who buys Dad a baseball glove that fits the kid. It was absolutely fantastic. I mean, I knew a Pro would give a good lesson, but this was way beyond my expectations...

    The Science of Break Cue Weights

    Cue weight keeps coming up with a lot of speculation whether a heavier or lighter cue is better for breaking. Let's do a couple of real-world examples with some simple equations. Newton's second law, F=MA, reads "force equals mass times acceleration". So dividing both side by M gives F/M=A...

    Anybody tried one of those Sterling rolling cases?

    Sounds like a good idea to me. All my luggage rolls, and a loaded 4x8 case weighs as much as a piece of luggage. Curious as to how you like it if anybody has one. Also, I cannot find specific info as to the interior layout, material, or color anywhere on the internet. So if you have one...

    Which cuemaker(s) can work some magic with a John Davis fullsplice blank?

    Would love to pick up a John Davis fullsplice blank and have a cuemaker wave his magic wand, sprinkle some pixie dust, and turn it into a keeper. Want to add NO inlays and keep it as inexpensive as possible and as high a quality as possible. Yes, I know. Low cost and high quality are somewhat...
