Thanks for the photos. I had the great pleasure of seeing the museum in person with Herr Weingartner explaining things. I also had the privilege of getting lessons from a former European champion (Arnim Kahofer) at the billiard club, as arranged by Herr Weingartner. His magazine "Billard" always has interesting visuals.

Hey Markus,
I'm assuming you took your future wife with you. I'm sure she enjoyed it as much as you. I think I willl have to go back and visit it again.
Your camera work is getting better and better. I'm jealous!!!
I was there with Erich around 5 years ago and was amazed at the collection he has massed over the years.
I really liked the tables from the 1700's and early 1800's
with the springs and horse hair for cushions.

see you soon!!!

Dear Markus:

A few years back Steve Hegg and I have prepared 76 shots from Weingartner Billiard Program using 3 Cushion CueTable (with straight rail grids). Please let me know if there are any corrections to be made and feel free to use the diagrams anyway you'd like to.

If you need them in higher resolution, I will be more than happy to help you. Please forward my best regards to Mr. Weingartner.
