    2006 or 2007 World Straight Pool Group Photo

    Hellooooo awesome forum chaps! I don't recall exactly which of the two years it was taken but one of these years there was an awesome large group photo taken of all the platers. I'd much appreciate it if anyone has a copy or link. Cheers

    Whatever Happened to These Guys?

    Almost as many as your AZ post count, thats impressive stuff! Is the forum as active as it was way back, are many of the posters ten years back still active?

    Whatever Happened to These Guys?

    Miss you guys too mate, doesnt time fly! I very rarely see this forum anymore and by chance I just happened to see this post. As you can probably tell from that video I dont play much now, but I'm hoping that will change soon as I purchase a house in Sydney and building my dream man cave...

    2016 AZ Billiards Straight Pool Challenge!

    Awesome! I just remembered this thread because of the current world 14.1 event, I can't believe this challenge is still going, this is awesome guys. I almost have my home man cave up and running so I promise I'll be posting some videos and runs soon!

    Lathe Help

    Thanks guys, amazing to get such a quick response. I am only looking for a starter lathe, I don't have a huge workshop (pic attached) and I am new to cue repair although I have always been passionate about woodwork. I was leaning towards the SIEG C3 just wanted to ensure it wasn't an absolute...

    Lathe Help

    Thanks guys, looks like will probably take a punt on the C3, for the price it's not too much of a risk and sounds like a decent starter lathe. Many thanks

    Lathe Help

    Thanks for the reply Kim, appreciate it. I have attached a photo of the Jet lathes, they are tagged as woodworking lathes but they are the only Jet ones I can find in Australia. I wasn't really sure which SIEG lathe would be best so I posted the list to the ones available in Australia, I...

    Lathe Help

    Hi, I've trying to purchase a lathe in Australia before the end of the tax year (I only have 1 more day! :o) so would appreciate some advice from my peers. I have read so many of the old threads but a lot of them relate to products like grizly and harbour freight that aren't easily available in...

    Congratulations to AZB's own TheOne!

    Ha, all too brief Colin! :) There's an Australian Open 8 Ball event in November in Sydney if you feel like popping over, otherwise I'm sure I'll end up in Melbourne at some point next year, get the beers ready!

    Congratulations to AZB's own TheOne!

    Thanks Tom, more good times! I have two stand out memories from that event: 1) It was the first time I saw Buddy Hall play in person and although he may have been in the twilight of his career it took me about 2 seconds to realise what a class player he was and must have been and I couldn't...

    Congratulations to AZB's own TheOne!

    Apologies for the tardy response, I have just made it back home as I took a couple of weeks vacation after Vegas. Many thanks for the kind word Colin, much appreciated. I had a blast in Vegas and it was great to finally put a face to the Cardiac Kid, an absolute gentleman and a pleasure to...

    2015 US OPEN 10-BALL & 8-BALL CHAMPIONSHIPS! July 24-31, Las Vegas, NV!

    This was an excellent post that does a great job of articulating most, if not all the problems with the current games in pool.

    A team of Professional Women v Amateur Men - who wins?

    Apologies about the avatar, I haven't been active on the forum for many years and it was related to one of the more historic threads from about five years ago - I was still quite impressed with the amount of assumptions you made from it though! :) I shall change it ASAP. I also wanted to add...

    A team of Professional Women v Amateur Men - who wins?

    Thanks for the replies so far everyone, what I'm reading from the responses are that the general opinion is mixed, it certainly isn't a forgone conclusion. If it helps I was thinking 9ft tables and probably 10 ball. I wouldn't class Gabe a master, I think the Grand Masters allowed pros to...

    A team of Professional Women v Amateur Men - who wins?

    If a team of 4 amateur male players (BCA advanced and masters only) played a team of 4 professional women in a Mosconi style format (for the sake of arguments lets say the top 4 in the current rankings) who do you think would win, or is it too close to call? I don't have a strong opinion but I...

    The state of pool can be summed up by its prime domain names

    I did but I wouldn't consider a .org more prime than a .com even though it is a TLD, but nice plug and well done onepocket.org :)

    Predator ICE cue

    Does anyone know if it is still possible to buy a new version of this cue anywhere, I know it's a few years old but I thought I'd ask (maybe some unsold stock somewhere!)

    The state of pool can be summed up by its prime domain names

    I have been out of pool for a while but I just noticed the appalling state of what I would describe as prime pool domains: www.pool.com >> Appears to be a domain name company! www.8ball.com >> Is owned by a DJ, nothing to do with pool! www.9ball.com >> Is parked with just a link based holding...
