    Fixing poorly installed rail cloth

    Just a quick question. How difficult is it for a professional to fix rail cloth that has wrinkles in the corners where the folds are? Would you normally need new cloth or can it be adjusted? Probably depend on how close to the staples it was trimmed? Thanks, Chris Sent from my SM-G900W8...

    Predator factory seconds

    HI all, Does anyone know if predator factory seconds are still being sold. I remember they used to sell factory seconds that had a black ring close to the joint. THanks, Chris Sent from my SM-G900W8 using Tapatalk

    Questions about a Brunswick gibson

    HI all, I have an opportunity to get a Brunswick Gibson table at a very good price and was wondering what your thoughts are on the table and what the retail cost was when they were being sold. Compatible to a gold crown for quality? Thanks! Chris Sent from my SM-G900W8 using Tapatalk

    How to tell when a line on slate is a problem?

    HI, I found what appears to be a good table. It is a national billiards table and looKS like a gold crown copy. There are some lines running on the slate when I checked the bottom. I was wondering if lines that could be cracks should always be avoided or if there are things to look for that...

    Anyone worked on a national pool table?

    Looks like a gold crown copy. Just looking for thoughts on quality. Obviously not a gold crown but I would like to know thoughts on quality: http://www.kijiji.ca/v-sport-other/city-of-halifax/national-9-ball-pool-table/1175158844?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true Sent from my SM-G900W8 using...

    Matching wood stain

    HI all, I found a table I like but it is a used commercial table (palison deluxe) and the wood stain has rubbed off on the sides from use. Just wondering how difficult it is to match and blend wood stain if anyone has done it before. Thanks as always. Chris Sent from my SM-G900W8 using Tapatalk

    Difficulty selling a snooker table?

    HI all, I had to sell my old table and am looking to replace it. I am hoping to get something that I can flip down the road and keep "trading up" until I get my ideal table. There is a GC 1 snooker table that is in phenomenal shape (not even any corrosion on the pocket castings or logo) that...

    What ever happened to the border battle?

    It was probably 15-20 years ago but there used to be a Canada vs USA tournament called the border battle. I used to love watching that. Anyone know what happened to it (still on, cancelled, etc). I think cliff Thorburn and alain martel were playing in the last one I watched if I am not mistaken...

    Brunswick weston

    Looking at a 7 foot Brunswick weston and can't find much info online for reviews or normal retail cost. Curious if anyone has worked on these and what your thoughts are. 1 inch slate? Built tough? Anything to look at for this model in terms of common problems? Looks like one that a local pool...

    Shout out to Dr dave

    I just wanted to say thank you to Dr Dave for all of the work you put into pool. Your site and all of your free resources are awesome, your BU exams are probably the most complete practice structure (with the benefit of being able to measure improvement) you will find anywhere and your...

    Letting kids play on my table

    So, my son's birthday party is coming up and there will be quite a few kids coming. I have the Jr shark guiding wheels but I still don't want kids playing on my table when I can't keep a watchful eye on them. I was going to have an adults only rule at first but got to thinking.....I still have...

    Lake salvage wood value

    My folks have a camp on a lake where there is a submerged lumber mill and a considerable amount of lumber that has been underwater for decades. We found it when fishing one day. Just curious if the wood has any value for cue making as I have seen people posting about lake salvage shafts...

    Drilling out a shaft

    So, times are a bit tough financially so I had to sell my predator. It will be a couple years before i can buy another. I bought a beat up cue at a pawn shop for next to nothing and was thinking about drilling out the top 6 inches to make it somewhat LD. Has anyone done this with normal power...

    Least damaging bridge head

    I hate using a bridge. Not because I am not good with one but because I am always concerned about scraping up my cue. I normally grab a house cue when I am using a bridge. Anyone have any recommendations for a bridge head that doesn't have any ridges that will scrape on your cue? I thought...

    Top players lining up for draw then changing

    One thing I have noticed with some pro players and top local guys is that when they are lining up they aim as if they are putting backspin on and then when they shoot they change to topspin. I have seen Efren and earl do this (and others). Just curious if anyone here does the same and what the...
