I played with a lucasi for years and years. I finally broke down, and bought a pechauer and thats my stick of choice now. The lucasi has been retired into the hands of my g/f, who is just learning to shoot, but I still play a rack with it from time to time.

I'm installing it on my table right now. Ive done 3 rails and it seems to stretch a bit hard, although I don't have any experience with worsted cloth. My only real concern is that I got it pre-cut and there is barely enough material to wrap around, stretch and staple the rails. I find myself...
