With commercial applications, we generally substitute the cues found in home-style Accessory Kits for tougher, longer-lasting fiberglass cues. We can also substitute one-piece Viper maple cues that you will find in most of the bars in Montana if you would like to save some money.
We start with our Big Sky Billiards Custom Accessory Kit found below:
Custom Standard Accessory Kit: MSRP $325
- SLP Resin Ball Set (Lifetime Warranty):
Indestructible 8 & 9 ball racks: These racks are made of a Tyvek product that is tough and stands quite a beating. These are not the plastic racks you've seen taped back together in bars and restaurants!
This is where we Substitute Cues from the two-piece Player Energy Cues to one of the options found at the end of this post.
Four 2-piece Player Energy pool cues:
- Made from 100% North American Grade A Hard Rock Maple
- Pro taper shaft treated with a special French cue wax
- High-quality French Le Pro leather tip
- Special High-impact ferrule so durable it comes with a Lifetime Guarantee against chipping or cracking
- High-gloss Super UV Finish protects cue from fading & chipping
Substitute the Moose Head Bridge for the Aluminum Bridge Head
Two piece bridge stick: This picture just shows the finishes available. The finish that comes in the kit will be ebony.
*Felt Saver Lint Removal Roller: It's nice to have a natural bristle brush and those are included in the Premium kits, but this Felt Saver is a great alternative to brushing your table! We've been happy with these, though they should be replaced annually.
Nylon Table brush: This brush is used to clean under the rails and around the pockets and we don't have a source for a natural bristle brush in this model.
Tally ball set and plastic shaker bottle: These are used to play a game called Pea-Pool the directions for which are included in the Instruction Book that comes in the kit.
*8' vinyl table cover in Black: This is the other upgrade that we recommend. Naugahyde table covers look nicer and are more likely to be used over time. Table covers are very important to use because they protect the cloth from UV light and dust, the two things that break down cloth over time.
Wall Racks are not included in Commercial Kits
Cue Tip Repair Kit:
Table chalk holder:
International Rule book:
* The asterisks indicate those items that we strongly recommend upgrading in the near future.
Pool Cue Substitutions:
Fiberglass SCOOP01 All Black One-piece Cue: $70 each for 4 Cues | $65 each for 8 cues. Increases the kit price to $365.
Viper Cues (One-Piece Maple w Glue-on Tips: $25 each for 4 Cues | $20 each for 8 cues. Decreases the kit price to $185 (4 cues)
Table Brushes:
Table brushes made of nylon have a tendency to shed...forever! We sell the natural bristle brushes in our store and we can upgrade you to one of the nicer brushes for only $18.
Billiard Ball Upgrades:
Some people don't mind the basic phenolic resin balls and some strongly prefer the higher quality Aramith pool balls. We offer the Aramith ball upgrade so that we don't have to charge everyone the much higher kit price for Aramith balls.
If you strongly prefer the Aramith balls, please see the Billiard Ball Upgrade section; use the C&C Kit Price to determine the upgrade price if this Standard kit is the one you are going to purchase.
Pool Table Covers:
The basic vinyl cover that comes in this kit will suffice for a short time, but if you want to protect your cloth, we highly recommend buying a heavier Naugahyde fitted table cover. These heavy duty covers fit most tables and run from $75-95 depending on the size of your table. If you have a table that requires a custom cover, we recommend either buying it when you purchase your table, or we can order it form Champion Billiards in any number of colors and types and they run anywhere from $110-$195 depending on size and cover construction.
The kit comes in a box for easy storage.
