    Carom Cue

    Thanks for the intrest. The shafts vary in weight by nearly an oz. so the weight bolts will vary as well. If you will let me know what weight, and balance point you prefer I will do my best to accommodate you. I will pm you the specifics. I have seen a few weight bolts as heavy as 35gram, I have...

    Cushions:

    Nevermind, The link Travis posted is what I was looking for. I am very intrested in this topic as well. My current table is an older cheaper brunswick with century U56 cushions, no subrails, glued straight to the partical board. This profile inherntly tends to trap the ball slighly, making it...

    Re-Laminate Valley Bar Box?

    According to the seller the laminate included is correct for the table, bought at a billiard supply place. I don't know what they call it, but if it is it's pretty durable. I have seen numerous cues, long necks (lot of them didn't break) broken over rails, cigarettes burnt down, didn't even...

    Re-Laminate Valley Bar Box?

    I should have asked earlier, what are the more serious problems with these table that would be deal breakers. The trim alone is pretty costly, and I may be wrong, but seems a trim kit is just rail bolt covers not, rack, ball return amd coin op trim.

    Re-Laminate Valley Bar Box?

    I have the opportunity to get a 7ft VBB for cheap. Problem is all the formica has been stripped off it. Included in the deal is new formica is this a viable standard procedure, or something to be avoided? I believe a couple of the trim peices are missing as well. I have seen threads here where...

    Cheapest Way To Work On My Own Cues

    I know I will get flamed for this but, The D handle drill from Harbor Freight laying on a towel, the other end stuck through a cardboard box is a very cheap shaft turner that works very well for me. And you can get it for around $30 with the 20% cupon. The drill has a knob speed control so it...

    Changing Taper?

    Very good information, Thank you. I have some polyurethane laying around, is that good for sealing? I don't know if it was stressed out or not, but I picked it up a few minutes ago and it did not feel as smooth as when I put it down around lunch time. The final sealer before that was pledge put...

    Changing Taper?

    The deed is done! Well I got motivated after the cue fell over and caught the coffee table. My lathe ended up being the 1/2' D handle drill on the floor, with the screw end supported by a hole in the side of a cardboard box. Worked quite well actually. There is no science in this taper, but at...
