    Zero-X Billiards response to allegations made by Max Eberle, Jimmy Reid and others.

    I agree wholly with your statement. I had been gone from the game for 23 yrs. His work was easy to understand and affordable which is great because although other videos are interesting the truth for me is that I can't justify spending $100 for instruction.,

    Why does snooker thrive and pool die?

    And in the mean time we get to watch hours of some snot nosed twenty yr old win millions in Poker for outlasting other snot nosed kids. Could ESPN at least televise some edited matches/tourney's, if not in prime time at least in the wee hours. And while their at it bring back the Sumo...

    Lucasi Question

    Well, I know this much, it's not from 2010.My Father had it for 20 yrs before his passing, so guessing it's from the 80's some time.

    Restoring '46 Brunswick Anniversary - Castings Concern

    Well , first I have to say that you did a beautiful job on your table. Only in my dreams could I have done as nice a job myself. Your stretcher came out great as well. I love the design and the hefty presence of an Anni, but never actually having the pleasure of playing on one I have questions...

    Restoring '46 Brunswick Anniversary - Castings Concern

    Druthers I also would ask this general question to mechanics, as I am looking to obtain a "pre owned" brunswick table if things work out. Would you druther own an Anni or druther a GC if the money to puchase is roughly the same.

    Awesome Ivory

    I know you are using pre-ban ivory, but it brings up the sad story reported today in Camaroon of the unabated slaughter of 200 elephants this year alone. Just a thought to consider.

    Cue Cleaning tips and Products.

    Having just gotten back to the game after 21 yrs I find that there is a bunch of products that weren't available back in the day. I have found and use a product named Q- clean. I find it cleans both ferrule and shaft without any abrasives. Just a soft cloth is all I use -- I will say that I...

    Competition ruins my stroke

    Mine issue is somewhat similarly head related in that I have recently come back to the game and a league. I have played well in 8 ball and am unbeaten. I have moved up two skill levels. So my captain has played me in the final 9 ball matches the past two weeks and in both I have bombed, missing...

    Is this a good lathe?

    When you buy a Cinncinati you are paying for a High quality casting and not some chinese boat anchor.;) That said, you need to know the condition of the ways and even more important is what is the backlash on the screw. If you can't hold a tolerance it isn't worth jack

    universal smart shafts

    Has anyone played with one of these low deflection shafts and what was your opinion. Is this really appreciable technology or a load of hokum.

    pressing lepro tips

    Tip Type I've read these posts with great interest, as I have purchased a very inexpensive cue from e-bay and not very happy with the tip. Having just returned to the game after not playing a serious game in 22 years I did not want to invest in a good cue (I have had a Meucci and an Adams)till...
