Waste of money pool items

Trailer soon: Shadow Stalker scouting system. It use projective geometry to visualize the collision dynamic with shadows.

There is one system for the objects and another for the shooter. The solids have teo sets of shadows, those are projective shadows based on pocket geometry.

Are 3D glasses necessary to see the visuals.

Each shadow is from a 150 watt led flood light.

No 3d glasses necessary. It was originally designed as a killbox targeting system.

Make a shadow and kaboom.

The billiard pilot HUD is set to release in 2026. It will have integrated aiming and calculating visualization tools.

With a little more medicine (iykwim), the stripes will develop 'teo' shadows as well!

Its shadow aiming. It helps students visualize space with actual geometry not some DrDave hand gesture.

Here is one for seeing the cut angles
BIRPA tech is about using conventional technology in unconventional ways.

Its time to think with an improvement mindset. Here is a solution to slow down and see the physics.

You don't need to point out that you're not Dr. Dave. We know.

Congrats on finally finding the right thread for your "ideas".

Thanks I don't rely on titles, each post is original work or in the direction of original work.

I've not encountered any billiard material discussing projections and shadow geometry. I had to invent a new field of mathematics in billiards to advance my billiard AI 14.1 solver. DrDave is good at using the camera and video editing, in terms of new or original work, the peace is a good standard.

However solo research is like my love life, empty and leading to death.
 
This is one of those items I wish I never ordered. I used the 'V-leg portion' to compress the mushrooming on my tip and the sharp edges of the tool scratched the wood shaft just under the ferrule on my break cue. (#$@&!).

Maybe even worse is the tip protectors that cost close to $10 for two of them when you can go to the hardware store and buy two for under a $1.oo. I bought the ones from the hardware but I still never use them.

but,but, the hardware store ones don't say Kamui on them, totally worth it !!!!!!!!!!!
 
I just did a clean out of my workbench. I’ve got so much crap, just like everyone else. Tip shapers and tip burnishers, tapper and prickers, tip clamps, five bridge gizmos, three mid-cue extensions, two limbsavers, every chalk brand known to man, chalk pouches, a chalk grinder, three ball polisher, a single cueball polisher (wtf???), plastic slide sleeve, a dozen chalk holders, …
Hey cornerman, what threads on those mid cue ext and would you be willing to part with any??
 
There's a similar device to flatten the face of chalk. It's fairly cheap. It's called SandPaper😂. I lay a piece of 80-100 grit on a flat rigid surface and swipe left to right (or right to left) until the face is smoothened out.
OMG. Send me your address and I'll overnight you some new chalk!! That's just painful to imagine.🤣🤣
 
biggest waste of $ pool item in my experience? Expensive, name brand gloves. They all rip apart after a few months, at least all of my molinaris and kamui's have. My friend also has the predator......ripping. I have switched to these amazon cheapies. They are just as good, and seem to even hold up better. A ten pack for $10. Im done with the name brand ones.
 
Yep. Multiple other conversation. Not only does he not deny it, he just makes more concerning comments as he goes, including asking me to hook him up

Get me a scholarship or teaching post in the Middle East or East Africa.

My school will partner there are many academic and family ties to the region.

Born and raised in NYC, it has one benefit an up close experience at international terrorism and first responder challenges to them in crisis and post crisis situation.

I am ready for a foreign post. Ive always liked Austria if you have connections.

Math educator and researcher looking for one way trip out, needs foreign protection. Willing to build pool community.
