Title: Counterweighted men
Post by: djeisenbe on September 09, 2012, 04:38:55 PM
Hi,
I am attempting to replace a set of men on my table and have been looking for counterweighted ones.  After searching the internet, the only ones I can find (that say they are counterweighted) are the tornado yellow and black but I am thinking there must be other ones.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
thanks for the help,
Dan

Djeisenbe,

It depends on what kind of table it is. If you can't find counter balanced men specifically for the table you have, if you know the rod size (diameter) and length of man from center of hole to toe, you could probably find a different style man that would fit your table. I'd start with the manufacturer of your table.

Shelti men are counterweighted. Fireball, too? If you are handy, men can be reamed to fit your rods.
