I still need to buy. I'll give you a ring in a bit.

Looking for recommendations for a good Kamui tip installer in Maryland. I'm in Westminster, about halfway between Baltimore and Frederick. Thanks.

Bump to the top.

I'd like to trade this OB2 shaft for an OB1 or OB1+. The shaft is in great shape, with no dings, and rolls straight. It still has the original tip on it, which could probably stand to be replaced. There's a little blue discoloration from chalk, which I'm sure will clean right up, but I've never...

I'll take 2 as well, PM sent.

Great idea! I think I'll do that. I'de still like to get a few pieces of cloth for when I have friends over, and want to avoid weird looks when I pull out a piece of printer paper :)

I'm wondering if anyone has any Simonis scraps they'de be willing to part with. Primarily I'm going to make break clothes from them, so I don't need anything too large. Thanks!

I'll take it.

I need to find a good installer for new tips, specifically Kamui soft. I'm considering using Muellers.com, but have no experience with their services. Can anyone recommend them, or anyone else? I might also try to find someone local. I'm in the Baltimore/DC area. Thanks!

SOLD shipped and paypalled. This rack arrived new, today. I've racked balls with it one time. Everything is included. The rack is in near flawless condition. I came with 2 very small and light surface scratches in the aluminum, which I show in the 2nd picture. They cannot be felt with your...

Thanks all for sharing your knowledge. I think some patience and time at the table is what's needed most. You've given me some fundamental ideas to keep in mind while I'm learning the patterns of the game.

Sean, thanks for these great pointers! I've just ordered Capelle's "Play your best straight pool" and Fels "Mastering Pool". I'll spend some time with Fleming's series. It'll be good to arm myself with some knowledge... I appreciate your time. -David

Are there any other cloths that play as well, but are of higher quality and consistency?

So, I've decided I want to play straight pool! For 25 years I've been primarily a 9-ball player. I've mixed in a little 8-ball and One pocket at times, but 9-ball is my comfort zone. I'd say I'm an A- 9-ball player. I'm a 7 in APA 8-ball leagues, and playing the ghost I can run out probably 6-7...

I'll take one. PM and Payment sent.

Here's the response I received from Simonis. "Hi Dave, This looks like a snag, or a cut caused by jewelry, a sharp cue tip or Farrell. The tear will not “run”. Just carefully trim the fibers that are sticking up. Do not add anything such as a filler or glue into the hole. It looks like you...

Thanks for the insight, everyone. I do wear a wedding band, which I'd have to cut to get off, and occasionally a watch. I'll stop wearing the watch. The coin was just for scale, and I'll make sure to never flip a coin on the cloth. I'll wait to hear from Simonis before I do anything, and will...

Well, I just sent an email with pics to Simonis. Maybe I'll have better luck than you. I'm glad to hear they don't get worse, and as they are, they don't interfere with the ball roll at all. It's still a little alarming to see after only 3 weeks, especially as obsessive as I've been caring for...
