Billiard Cloth

craig — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 13:28:57 +0000

When it comes to picking a color and type of cloth for your pool table it can sometimes be a struggle. If you are selecting a color for your new table or for recovering you existing table, I suggest selecting a color that is more of an accent color in your room. With such a big splash of color you don’t want your area to be too monochromatic. I know I’m no designer, but I always seem to find customers agree with that perspective. We carry tons of different colors so I’m sure we will have something that will work in your rec room. Everything we carry is also Teflon protected for easy clean up and durability. We also carry blended cloth to ensure the longest possible life for your cloth. Some higher wool cloth might play slightly faster and have less resistance, but they tend to wear more quickly while actually costing more. If you are in need of some new cloth be sure to stop and check out our selection of colors…and if you don’t want to change it yourself you can always have our service department do it for you. Hope to see you soon!

Pool Tables At Absurd Prices . . .

craig — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 13:09:48 +0000

I know people don’t necessarily think of pool tables as a seasonal item, but we tend to sell the majority of our pool tables when the temperatures start to drop. Currently we have some unbelievable prices on many of our tables. Nearly every table is at “Price Blowout” pricing, which means you are getting the table below even the lowest sale prices we have offered. If you are thinking about getting a table for your home or have thought about it in the past there has literally never been a better time than now in the nearly eight years I’ve worked here. Please stop and see what great values we have for you…I’m sure you won’t regret it. Hope to see you soon!

A New Take On An Old Standard . . .

craig — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 14:49:51 +0000

One of the best selling game table choices in my 7 years here at Eastgate Pools has been the conversion top. In case you don’t know what that is, it is a two piece table tennis surface that you place on top of your pool table, air hockey table, dining table, or other surface to have a regular 9’ x 5’ playing surface. Well, we just recently received a new style that solves the old problem of protecting the surface underneath. Our new model is thicker than older models (measuring 5/8” thick) and has a completely rubberized bottom for ultimate protection. All this and accessories included and reasonably priced to boot. Stop in and check out another great family friendly product.

It’s Tip Off Time!!!

I won’t say what college basketball team is my favorite as I’m sure I am in the minority here, but this is the start of my favorite sports season of the year. NCAA basketball is incredible especially when you consider we are in the home stretch for the NFL and college football. At any rate, I thought this might be a good time to point out a new product line here at Eastgate Pools…just in time for your basketball viewing pleasure. Now in stock we have a great assortment of pub tables and stools with all of your favorite local universities represented. We have Miami, Xavier, UC, Ohio State, and Kentucky! Hopefully that covers most of you. As usual, I look forward to seeing you all soon!

Pool Cue Tips

scott — Wed, 22 Dec 2010 15:21:39 +0000

We have sold thousands of cues over the many years we’ve been in business at Eastgate Pools. From time to time the tips of these cues wear out and need replaced. This is a job that customers often look for help with. We have the items at our store that can help you with this project and here is some advice if you plan on undertaking this project.

Essentially make sure the tip and cue surfaces are clean, maybe using a piece of sand paper.
Use superglue (ideally gel based as water based superglue can be too brittle) or a cue tip cement to attach your tip.

Then place the tip on the cue and press down firmly with your finger. Leave the cue for as long as possible to form a good bond, ideally overnight at least. We recommend that you clamp the tip down to make a tight seal. (of course we sell this clamp or an entire cue tip repair kit)

Fun And Games With The Kids

I know that weather is getting warmer and it seems like the kids have more activities than we have hours in the day but we still have some items to keep them at home and spending time together as a family. We have many game tables still in stock and have pool tables on display as well. Just because the days are getting longer doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy some time with your family without going out and spending a lot of money. Some of the tables are very economical and would cost you less than taking the entire family out to one Cincinnati Reds game. You can still have quality time with your family without breaking the bank. Come see our full lineup of game tables and pool tables on display year round.
