I had Semonis 760 and liked it fine, but man, for a nine foot table that stuff aint cheap. Even on line it passed three bills. Locally it's even more.

So I'm open to suggestions and or advice on what to definitely not buy if you folks have had bad experiences...or what to buy if you're happy with what you got.

Also suggestions are where to buy are welcome if you have any.

I want to go with camel and it needs to be worsted. I need enough for a nine foot table and rails (Gandy if it matters).

If we have (and I imagine we do) any actual dealers/sellers I'm open actual offers. Pm if you like.

I'm ready to do something soon as I am sanding the seams tonight.

Thanks
 
JZMechanics had a post yesterday in the for sale section for some Champion 3030 (I think) for a 9 foot table. I used Championship tour 3030 on a table a few years ago and really liked the cloth. It was faster than 860, so may play pretty close to the 760 you like.

I believe the difference between 860 and 760 was a higher percentage of nylon. The Championship Tour Cloth has a nylon content closer to the 760 ratio I think.

Anyway if it would interest you send him a pm on here. He did all the work on my current table and is a GREAT guy to deal with.

Thanks guys. PMs sent. Looks like I might get this settled through good ole AZB.

Nothing settled yet, so any thoughts or offers are appreciated.
 
I did indeed get it sorted through this very forum. I went back with the 760 ( kinda always knew I would...ya know what I mean?) but got it in camel. Just got it last night and LOVE it. I will stretch it this weekend if all goes to plan.

I won't mention the poster who gave me such a sweet price shipped that I couldn't pass only because he didn't post in this thread, so maybe he doesn't want that sort of "cloth moving action". Solid dude for sure and I will give him a public nod if he wants it.

At the minimum...if cloth shopping...start a thread, hell ya never know.

I'll post a pic or two when its done since I'm convinced this thread has all of AZB on the edge of their seats. ;)
 
Yeah, you should prob keep the ID to yourself as the Simonis po-po will be all up in hs shit for disregarding its pricing structure.

IMO, a mechanic who can't get Simonis unless someone else gets it for him is going to be looking for another job soon.
