Really.....your going to teach me something about rail work...LMAO
Best you stick with Glen giving you step by step instructions over the phone...only problem is not the wood work....it's not rocket science to cut wood off and put wood back....it's the understanding of how a table should play.
Just because you have the correct angles for a rail....that makes the rail play right. If that were the case...all the rails coming from the factories would be just fine.
That how ever is not the case...so if you think I'm up-set because your on here asking people to send you there rails and you will fix them perfect....by all means go right ahead....your not taking work from me....I have more than I can get to.
Or if you think your rail work is better....know this....FOR SOMEONE TO UNDERSTAND HOW RAILS SHOULD PLAY....THEY WITHOUT DOUBT NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE GAME WELL TO UNDERSTAND HOW CUSHIONS SHOULD REACT.
I truly don't think jumping in a truck with Glen make's you the man at rail work....but if you think you are....then you may want to help solve the ATEMIS cushions from spring and hopping and banking short......That's one I still can't get perfect....my opinion....I don't think anyone ever will.
Glen is all yours.......I don't need any lesson from him....and I'm more than happy to not share anymore of mine with him.
Trust me...there's no hard feeling toward anyone on here...I just finally had enough of my idea's shared with guy's on here doing or trying to do rail work....and I did look up your rail work....keep your phone line open to Glen.

I do not appreciate being attacked on here for doing nothing to you. I have not bad mouthed your work like you are mine, and in fact, never mentioned you or your work. I simply gave my opinion of what the problem could be same as you did. It is just a guess just like you are guessing because no one here other than the thread starter has seen the rails. I made no attempt to "teach you something" about rails, I simply gave another option that was not mentioned.
Not that it is any of your business, but Glen does not give me step by step instructions over the phone. I learned what I learned from Glen working with him, and now I am doing my own thing. Yes I do call Glen if I run into a problem and have no way of fixing it, it is not my first thing I do, so don't make it sound like I am calling him every job I have asking how to do something.
I never said I am the man at rail work, far from it. I do however work on rails and pool tables for that matter, and like like the work I do. I have had no customers say their table plays worse when I am done with their table.
Apparently you are upset about me "taking your work" or else you would not have posted this attack towards me. This is all a moot point as of now anyway because the TS has not even come back and said what, if anything he plans on doing with the rails. Talk about making a big deal out of a little comment.
I am beginning to see why so many mechanics come and go from this site cos they get tired of the people with big heads and egos telling them they are the best of the best, and they solved all pool's problems. You said it yourself, this is not rocket science so no need to get all puffed up about it.
