Time to chime in about the BreakRAK and it’s inventor and builder, the wonderful Charley...
You can total it all up anyway you like - but for the product he has engineered and built (nothing close to it, globally) along with the large, easy to transport storage case and shipping - it’s a steal. Fits every table size if you get the Pro kit, which you should do.
Two things will become apparent the first 15 minutes you have one:
1) you’ll know the price was really a non-issue. You’ll be able to work your break and fix numerous issues with your break stroke, speed and results in short order. How valuable is your time and the lessons you could never get without this device? Ball sets run more than this training device. So do your cues. And league fees. It’s a no brainer when you crunch numbers and value. You’ll also KNOW you were one lucky person to get this generation-lasting break trainer as cheap as you did. It’s worth a lot more than you’ll pay. I wouldn’t sell mine for $2000. That’s not a typo.
2) you realize your pals and friends will want to use it and take it home! They’ll ask and bribe and beg. They’ll trade chalk, bring whiskey gifts and even a new Aramith ball set as thanks for letting them use it - true story. So let them. It’s easy to transport. It will also motivate you to use the BreakRAK when they return it.
Charley is top-shelf. Call him and find out for yourself. Who else would offer to send you the plans he’s worked up for holding the radar so you can build your own and make it match your table or room? No one. That’s who
Oh - and do what you can to get his book
