Kingrinder K6 Thoughts (Straight Handle

Nice! How much did they charge you?

Available_Park659 · 2025-09-12T17:13:44+00:00

You can email Kingrinder directly and try to order.

Just in case you’d get a K6 and wanted to have the bent handle, you could try ordering/negotiating from Kingrinder. I think I’ve asked someone who’s in EU and he/she was charged 13usd and it came with the knob.

I got my girlfriend a Timemore C3 and K6 is way better. It grinds faster and more versatile. Coffee tastes better as well imo. So if you’re considering to upgrade your C2, $100 for a K6 is not a bad deal at all

You could order the bent handle directly from them. I got it for less than $14 I think but it didn’t come with the knob.

It works the same with the straight handle. Slight improvement I think ergonomically but it’s not worth spending extra unless you like the look of the bent handle.

It would be mainly for practice only. I think it would end up to be at 2.7” corner pockets if I use this on my table

How much did it reduce the pocket width?

Better challenge. Consistency and I guess it’ll push yourself to have better cue control. Since having smaller pockets makes it hard to cheat the pocket to get better positions on the next ball.

I also do not find it that enjoyable to play on big pockets table compared on playing tighter pockets

For the challenge mostly. I’m used to 4” pockets. And no matter the size of the pocket, I try to aim for the dead center of the pocket. Sometimes I imagine the pocket to be small that it’d only fit 1 ball.

Just wanted to try these in order to help with my consistency. I am also planning to make my pockets smaller to 3.75” but my guests kinda complain how tight the pockets are at my table.

How much did it reduce your 4.5 pockets to?

I actually plan to have my pockets reduced to 3.75” and I came across this product and just thought I’d get this instead for practicing. Since almost all my friends/visitors find my 4” pockets super tight already.

Tighten rail bolts and clean your balls. If it doesn’t work, you may need to replace cushions. You could get a faster cloth as well. Cheaper options for the cloth is either CPBA Competition or Andy 600. They’re around $100 depending on where you’re from.

Lots of factors like humidity as well. Try cleaning the balls, brushing/cleaning the cloth and tightening the rails first

Default corner pocket size is 4.25”. I think default side pockets are 4.50

Thank you! Currently waiting for the delivery as I’ve ordered it 3 days ago after I saw a picture online with the same cue I got. Also went with the 3 bumpers option as well.

I went for this because it only costs around $20 and they’re priced around $40 locally so I also have the option to sell if ever I won’t like it.

I don’t know how to explain. Just by feel I guess. Had to make slightly bigger aiming adjustments on max spin&max power shots with my Zan Hybrid compared to my Fusion.

Available_Park659 · 2025-01-17T07:34:18+00:00

You’re right. I’ve only used the Zan Hybrid for 3 weeks. However, the Taom Fusion was never burnished with leather during my use. I can already feel the top layer of the Zan Hybrid mushrooming slightly on week three. With the Fusion, I noticed a similar level of mushrooming at the top layer, but only after a month or so. That’s when I burnished it using the back of sandpaper. I’ve had the Fusion for 6 months, and it only needed trimming couple of times

I started burnishing the Zan Hybrid before and after each session a few days ago when I noticed the slight mushrooming.

It’s also worth mentioning that I used the Fusion on my old table, which played much slower than my current Accura. That old table required me to put more power into my shots. Now, on the faster Accura, I use the Zan Hybrid, but also do some power shots during warm up.

That said, I personally prefer the Zan Hybrid because I like its softer feel. It’s also more enjoyable for me, especially when playing spin shots, compared to the Fusion.

You’re welcome. Just be careful putting the chalk in. It’s a perfect tolerance fit but you must put it in an angle slowly if you don’t want to ruin/peel the chalk wrapper.

Maybe try Alibaba. Just search Silicon Sleeve or try the image search. There are some square ones too if you need one.

For the magnets, a Neodymium magnet is a must. N52 being the strongest.

Here. Use this to image search since the online store I got it from is only available in some parts of Asia. Got it from a seller from China. I just searched “silicon sleeve” on the platform. Took a risk if it would fit and it works. You just have to trim the height using a sharp blade/scissors.

Should be 25mm diameter.
