anything under 140 make any small pocket play like a vacumm sucks ball in easily. I did 7' at 139 another 137 with 4" pockets just to see if an okay player would love it and they did. 6 months later wanted it back to 141 to play normal if you want a little tougher then go to 143 like a gold...
also have take into account the thickness of the rails height wise.how would you adjust 1-1\2" to 2" thick rails? how to adjust for u23,k66 or k55 profile rubber and slight differences for manufacturer mold issues? when would you use cloth and non cloth reinforced rubber and durometer rating of...
try starch and an iron just watch the temp works okay. or use super slick car wax takes months for the balls to slow down. local shop polishes balls for $10 and uses a crazy brand of wax on them to make ultra shinny but its skid central for months till they play right.
best buy the right cloth...
table must have come from az thats all they use out here on cheap tables.
i like the grex stapler the best but it didnt like 120 degree weather in phoenix kept melting orings. best gun i ever have used hands down,faster reset then anything out there.
new one is a fasco it looks exactly the...

glen still around washington state think he is heading south soon to do a couple tables and some rails for a friend of mine. glens lives on east side of washington sometimes has to adjust to weather for travel. 95% late all the time but gets it done.
In phoenix rarely find a solid floor for a table last two i put in floor flexes a bunch ball will move a good diamond spaces. Thats in the new homes older homes may have the older joist design but new style sucks for tables.
cloth is on three sides wedged in be feather strip then it lies across the top which is the fourth side. if you streach it right no need for a fold in the corner pockets only for the side pockets.
side pockets leave yourself at least 3-4" of cloth to learn easier on corners only need 1-2"of...
I used 1-1/2" abs cut about 6" high and line with lambswool holds shafts nice and snug wont wear the finish off making a nee one to hold 48 shafts and a few butts
10"&12" are best to get most consistant leveling.
4"&6" hit to many valley's keeps changing level
15"&18" work faster but hits the peaks to far apart and dont let you raise the valley's.
All have their quirks practice and use notes on how it changes from adjustments
after you polish the aluminum use white diamond to maintain them and seal them. I use this on my 49 ford all the time only polish with a sealer so no black residue or oxidation will transfer to your clothes while playing. most auto parts stores carry it also...
Most diamonds have 860hr on them if it has 760 it will be like an ice skating rink all day long. check your rail bolts see if torqued to 15ft pounds no need for tighter it just creates rolls in the table sometimes from over torquing. room tempature under 74 degrees creates hard rubber rails to...
