Starrett 8 or 12

I know what you're trying to do, you're thinking you can get me all pissed off again, and hopefully get me banned from AZB again, only, you have no idea what I'm up to this time. Now, instead of getting pissed of at you unruly kids sitting at the back of the class, being the classroom clowns that you are, I've decided to move YOU and your CHAIR to the front of the class, so EVERYONE can see you for who you really are, and start testing YOUR level of intelligence, in FRONT of the whole class!!! You want to acknowledge like you're smarter than the teacher, nows your chance!!

Answer the questions I've asked you, or admit you're just the classroom clown!
 
I have an idea, maybe I should start a new thread titled, "RKC vs DeeDeeCues, who knows more about pool tables" and only you and I can post in the thread. Then we can get all the attention you're heart desires right out there in front of God and everyone else! I mean think about it, you could go down in history as the clown that took down the RKC!!

Should I start a new thread just for you and me?

Ha funny.

I never claimed to know more about tables than you. I simply point out your garbage elitist attitude and your belittling of people. Combine that with your cryptic bs replies that don't actually give any information, I just can't figure out how anyone respects you.
 
Im sorry, am I asking questions to hard for you to answer intelligently? If so, maybe I can break them down to 3rd grade level if I have to, so you might have a better chance to understand and answer them, just let me know, ok?

Just go ahead and figure that I took three years of engineering calculus, statics, dynamics, material properties, two years of physics... Really everything to have graduated as a mechanical engineer. I'm not going to keep playing patty-cake with you. You're much more capable of being an asshat than I am. I'll leave you alone with your fanboys.

You win.

The only thing I can figure with you, is that you can't answer my simple questions! Move your chair to the back of the classroom where you belong!😅🤣😂
 
And can't answer a simple question about the bevel of a subrail, wow, I guess that makes you OVER QUALIFIED!!!😅🤣😂

Who do I belittle?

I don't think this forum is a good fit for you, because it seams like you don't have anything intelligent to contribute. You're just consumed with trying to attack me!

Every post you've made in this thread has been directed at me, and THAT right there's says a lot about your intentions, because you have NOTHING else to contribute. When I ask you intelligent questions, you just sidetrack answering them, again, not contributing ANYTHING worthwhile.

Why is that? No one here asked you to post anything, so why are you even interested in this thread?

Don't sell yourselve short.

That's how you see it. I think he's a blowhard who says garbage like the above when he doesn't have an answer.

It's like his cushion nose 'formula'. A+B=C... He never defined the variables, wouldn't give a straight answer about how the angles affect it. He sells snake oil and many buy it.
I never ask a question to something that I don't have the answer to, not when it comes to pool tables!

But I did ask you a question, that with all your infinite wisdom, failed to answer, and it was a simple question at that😅🤣😂
 
Y

You already did, with all your education, you still can't answer a simple question, like how do you determine the subrail bevel to set the nose height of a set of cushions, sad😪

You asked a question about whether I understood that the angle changes the height. I replied, 'of course', as in, 'of course I understand that'. You then started making cracks about my intelligence, so I decided to be done with you and this insane conversation.

This will be my last statement. You can jerk off feeling superior, I don't care.

You started it buddy!!!
 
Is there a hugh difference. I’d like to own one to check level or maybe use it for adjustments on the 1 piece Professional. I can afford the 12 but don’t want to overspend if not necessary. Thanks. Frank
Don't limit yourself to Starrett. I know this may sound like sacrilege since Starrett has a religious following, but I am extremely happy with the made in England Moore and Wright ELM model, which has a 300 mm base, almost always sells with a case, and is very easy to read and calibrate.. Also goes to 0.3 mm/m, which is a little better than the Starrett 98. They sell for about 250 pounds new in England, but you often see them on eBay for about $100 to $125. Another top brand is EDA, a French company that makes the levels for Swiss Precision Instruments. Again, easy to read, easy to calibrate, and usually in much better condition for the price than some of the old Starretts.
 
There is absolutely no need for high dollar levels used for precision machining work.

This (made in China) level for less then $100 is far more accurate then you need for pool table work. Accurate to two ten thousands of an inch (.0002) every 10 inches. Thats .002 over a 9 foot span.

It is a little more difficult to calibrate then others, but I haven't had to do it yet.
