I just finished disassembling an Eggbot that I used to make a Poké Ball out of a plain cue ball and it worked great. I have a lot of spare 3D printing parts so the machine cost me nothing but it's only $200 if you have no parts. Also, it is even simpler to make than you might think (incredibly...

People are discussing how to sanitize a table with UV light and that made me remember corner pocket cameras, but why did they stop using these on TV? They were novelty, but still kind of cool to have.

I'm not a 1 pocket fan so I really don't follow the progression of the rules, but I see that at the next Derby City.... "If a ball is made on the break, re-rack." Why would this be?

I'm looking to have a butt made out of 1 of these 2 materials, should they be able to work the wood and finish it? If a cue maker says they can do it, but ask for the wood to be supplied, which dimensions are best? Looking for a lighter butt, I'm wondering if Balsa can be finished in a way to...

I've been watching a lot of matches using Andy cloth and it appears that when a ball comes to rest it settles in a little. It looks very responsive and the balls appear to move more at the natural angles, although that might be my perception. It kind of seems like the movement is going down...

I searched on here but didn't find any comparisons between the Pechauer 11.8 CF. I know that the deflection of the Predator z2/3 wooden shaft is nearly the same as a Revo 12.4 CF shaft, so that leads me to believe that it's possible that the Pechauer 11.8 CF could be lower... but is it? As far...

... but no fights (that would be countless). In another thread in regards to being hit with a cue ball at 88mph and possibly time traveling... So, in response... You'd think to the hospital or at least alley. I've never seen anything horrific like someone's teeth becoming cracked or even get...

I understand it will depend on speed, but for a normal shot (not slow roll or break), how much can be used, say on a stop shot of 10 feet, with bare minimum speed at the lowest possible contact point on the cue ball? 70%?

Today is the first day in 2 weeks that the fatality rate in the USA FINALLY bounced up, amd only by .006%!! ! So I thought how is the USA so resilient to all of this when so much of the world hasn't been? RATS!! Since our (hostile) takeover, this country has been filled with people from all...

Anyone have a picture of these new Predator lights that the commentators keep mentioning during the 2020 Diamond 10-Ball? They keep mentioning there is 5 of them in a cluster, which can be seen from the reflection off the balls, but it's hard knowing the size. I understand that players want...

I have started to recieve about 7 e-mails a month from the APA, which is basically up 2100%. I don't necessarily want to stop receiving emails completely (which is the only option I have left), so should I weather this out? If the APA is in trouble, I get it, but if they're not then I'm...

In another thread light cues came up. My bucket list has a 15oz cue @ 70 inches. I now know it's doable after talking with a few CF fabricators, but $2,000 is the cheapest I can find (although that includes CAD work and I believe a shaft, so it would be cheaper). GoCustoms won't do it, I...

I have no where to put a pool table (storage now I guess), but out of the blue someone offered be a very good deal on a 5 month old Rasson Victory 2 Plus (what she called it). I see these on streams along with Star, Joy, and other brands I've never shot on (although I did shoot on a older...

Disregarding the material used, I'm wondering what the most common weight bolt is as far as diameter, pitch and thread. Im also wondering what the most common weight bolt _should_ be as far as availability, I assume it would be a under a ISO (A ball M10x1.5 or something like that).

I've been playing almost solely on Diamonds for about 2 years and I'm realizing these tables are kinda cheap. 1. The ball returns are the worst. I'm not a fan of ball returns anyways, but I've never danced so much trying to figure out which end the cue ball will come out. It's kinda...

I don't really follow product releases, but I keep hitting comments around the net about a 12mm REVO, but the smallest I see is 12.4mm. A 12mm REVO would be nice (I keep eyeing that Becue).

So far I have... 1. Turtle Rack 2. Magic Ball Rack 3. Accu-Rack 4. Magic Rack (Chinese knock off of Magic Ball Rack, slightly different). I've see a few on streams I can't identify, which I imagine are people printing their own on vinyl or some similar material. Is there other brands of...

I'm wondering if there is a list somewhere with widths, lengths and angles of pocket sizes professionals generally play on. For instance Diamon, Rasson, Valley, Star etc... I'm thinking about getting a Diamond personally with 4 1/4 pockets, but I'm interested to see what the median and average...
