    Hey Joe. I think I didn't hit enter when I tried to comment. I just did this test with CPBA tournament blue cloth, and could only get 1 5/16" stretch. I'm 200 plus pounds, and pulled with all my might. Does a calculated stretch index of 9/16" sound correct?

    • @AverageJoesPool
      @AverageJoesPool Před 6 dny

      No, that does sound too short. Typically you should get 1 3/4" - 2 3/4" on worsted cloths. Then minus the 3/4". You didn't mention which CPBA cloth you have, and they do vary quite a bit on wool content. Their richest blend is the Royal with 85% wool, then competition with 70% wool, and then the MG-700 at just 50% wool. It could be that the cloth is not pulling back from its stretch point (so you pull, mark the cloth, but when you release it does not go back very far). Either that or maybe the cloth was not fully secured on the opposite side and was able to pull free just a touch? It's definitely worth running that test again from scratch and seeing if you get an identical result the second time. Best of luck 👍

      It can be a tough job, but definitely turpentine and old rags is the way to go. Change the rags regularly as the wax starts to collect on the rag (otherwise you end up moving it around rather than removing it. Hope that helps! 👍

    I realize this is an older video, but I just saw it. The "feature presentation" music at the beginning is totally brilliant and I wish I'd thought of it first. To get back on topic, I used Master chalk for almost four decades, but I cannot deny that some of the new chalks made by Taom are so clean and so long-lasting that I can't ignore them. I eagerly await Tweeten unveiling a clean, but grippy chalk. That would be the best of both worlds.

    • @AverageJoesPool

    Hey, Joe. My backing is 3/4 " plywood. What length of staples should I be using?

    • @AverageJoesPool
      @AverageJoesPool Před 11 dny

      I'd go with the standard 1/4" for plywood. In our Amazon links in the video description we link to a cheap T50 multi pack that contains all three sizes commonly used for pool table installation, and more than enough of each one to do a full table. Just in case you want the option to change to 3/8" if you're not happy with the hold on the 1/4". But I think you'll be good provided the plywood is in decent shape. Hope that helps! 👍

    Does the design allow for a screw in extension, presumably needing a female thread part to be installed too, or is it limited to the bulkier push on type? I've recently changed from mostly playing on 7ft (8ball) to 9ft tables (and 9ball) and want to buy a replacement to my 30yr old cue which I don't want to modify to allow for an extension. Any advice greatly appreciated!

    • @AverageJoesPool
      @AverageJoesPool Před 11 dny

      You have a few options for cue extensions for Valhalla cues. Viking produce a centre extension, but this DOES NOT fit Valhalla (only Viking quick release). But they also produce a rear (butt) extension in 6" and 12" and those are available with a Valhalla adapter (see their website for more info). But if you want a centre (joint) extension rather than rear (butt) then there are options out there including Balance Rite who do a 5/16-18 joint extension (4"). Hope that helps 👍

    Can you use cut out medium thin paper or carboard material to cover screws and bondo over instead of stickers?

    • @AverageJoesPool
      @AverageJoesPool Před 13 dny

      I would recommend against that actually because the paper may pull out of place. Whereas with stickers they stay put, and you can set them precisely as you need them, and be confident they won't move, before dropping the Bondo over the top. They don't have to be fancy stickers, any cheap sticker available from any supermarket of dollar store will be perfect. Hope that helps! 👍

    I bought a Schmelke True Stroke cue back in about 1982, and aside from a small ding or two, it is still just as nice as it was new. Paid about $85.00 for it back then, and have never thought of replacing it. I like all the info given about the Valhalla here, except for the China part.

      @@AverageJoesPool Only the cheapest, quick grind and polish balls have any roundness issues. Once you are at this quality level, the roundness is way tighter than even the diameter differentials you noted. So I was just being a prude who grew up with a father who was a machinist. You did a great vid.

  • @cosmicraysshotsintothelight

    TV colors are soooooooo stupid. Especially considering that they were put forth in the days of CRT TVs and three gun video cameras that required extremely high brightness room lighting to work. Modern cameras can "see" all the way down to a dimly lit room AND they get the colors right. So, GAWDDAMNIT, these STUPID TV balls are NO LONGER NEEDED ANYWHERE in the the entire world of video production! Continuing to make them, much less use them has to be one of the most stupid things the sport ever did, much less KEPT IN PLACE. It is TRULY STUPID.

    Do you think you could do a video on either making an outdoor pool table or converting a pool table to be used outdoors. Different (waterproof cloths) different sides, avoiding materials that would that or degrade in the outdoors etc

    • @AverageJoesPool
      @AverageJoesPool Před 16 dny

      That would really be outside my area of knowledge, more into custom pool table building. I know there are a few models of tables designed for outdoor use so your best bet would be to jump on Google and get researching. You'll likely be able to find out suitable materials etc fairly quickly. Best of luck 👍

    Difference between branded and amazon’s?

    • @AverageJoesPool
      @AverageJoesPool Před 16 dny

      When you say Amazon's you mean unbranded, or lesser branded as available to buy on Amazon? Well, with branded ones they are can 3-4x the price, but also better quality - especially in how long they may last. Good branded ones might last 20+ years. Expect half of that for the cheaper ones (but some may well last close to as long as the branded ones as quality varies a lot!). Hope that is of some help 👍

    Realistically, if a cue is straight, solid, and has a good tip on it, there's not much more you can ask of a cue. If you're paying upwards of $300 for any cue, you're paying for exotic wood inlays, exotic artwork, the mystic of a private cue maker, or just the name of a cue making company. You will not play better with a $1200 cue than you will with a $100 cue, even if you think you will.
