    To do this mod open the side door and remove the oversized ball bar that straddles the metal ball chute by the cue return.  On the left side of the chute in front of the cue drop area position qty 2  1″ diameter by 1/8″ thick rare earth magnets.  Be sure to position them just above the mid point of the cue ball.  Use a magnetic cue ball, I used an Aramith cue which has a metal shell under the outer surface .    In the picture you will see the bar moved to the side and the positioning of the magnets.   Works great.
