14.1 Withdrawls

i'm all shaky, sweaty and can't sleep since i sold my pool table. must....... get...... 14.1....... fix....... :crying: to make matters worse, the dude who bought my table loves it. he and his wife are sucking beer and playing pool as i type!. :bash: as allah is my witness, a 9' gold crown will be my only quest once i get to my new florida home. :angel:

schlosser: if it weren't for the cig smoke, i'd have done that. i can't take it anymore...


dave: yes, my new home in florida will accept a 9' table. with the exception of a computer desk and bed, it will be my only piece of "furniture". however, should i find a nice oversized 8', at a great price, before i find my 9', i will buy it.

oh, and FYI; i had Championship Tournament cloth on my last table and it was much more durable than simonis 860 or 760. when i get my new table, that's the cloth i'm buying...

Vahmurka: i already had a scuffle with the mechanics over this cloth. lol..... you can't tell the diff between champ tourny cloth and simonis during play except maybe CT cloth is a tad faster. it looks identical to simonis and i'd like to be able to challenge those mechanics to tell the diff. i know they can't. also that CT cloth is nicer on the back-side. so much so that it's hard to tell front from back. it's also cheaper and stronger than simonis and this is coming from a guy who only put simonis on this gold crown. but this is just between we here. screw anyone who can't change despite facts.

straightman: i bought a home in north port, florida which is just south of tampa. here's a pic of the exterior. after i get a new table, i'll up a pic of the inside, "game room". but i tell ya; i spent the entire month of november down there and it's so much nicer than the DFW area. coming back was sooooo depressing. this house was built in 2004 and i bought it for $70,501. i could hardly go wrong. super quiet street and no immediate neighbors!

thanks for all the encouragement.

straightman; the house is 1,300' minus the lanai, which is a screened-in section of the house. it's plenty big enough for me living there alone. i had an opportunity to buy an 1,800' house in ocalla but passed. and yeah, the DFW area is one ugly town...

MN Kid: what's taking you so long on your table? what model brunswick is it?

vahmurka: the only thing keeping me from leaving is dealing with my three vehicles. can't decide which ones to ship and which to drive.

kid: oh, that's an amazing table. looking forward to the finished pics.

the only thing i don't like about the GC is that it's LOUD and my house is all tile.

the nicest table upon which i've ever played was a 7' brunswick with "silent" pockets and ball return. you'd hit a ball in the pocket and you couldn't hear it. for the life of me though, the model of this table i cannot remember. i sure would like to find a 9' with such attributes.
