Well, I was holding off on posting these until the end of the week as the one with the Guilia tip is headding off to Italy for X-Mas, but since this thread has cranked up again, and since Joe posted his nifty 8 Ball top, I could wait no longer.
Earlier in the thread poptop noted that an 8 Ball was noticeably abscent from my set. I responded that the 8 Ball was up next, and Neff guessed correctly who it's going to.
8 Ball top #1 is a standard 8 Ball with a clear acrylic crown and tip section. It has a Guilia tip, a button made from the ball and a clear acrylic plug to hold an LED.
8 Ball top #2 is a marbled ball from the fancy set of Pool balls that I got a few weeks ago. It has a cast red Delrin tip section to match the red number, a matching button, and a modified bearing Trompo Grande tip which converts to fixed (Alan's design). I'm almost out of Guilia tips, so I'm using the Trompo Grande ones, but I'm almost out of those too.....does anyone have extra bearing Trompo Grande tips they would sell me?
8 Ball top #3 is very much like #1 but with the converted Trompo Grande tip. Here they are:
