A few people are looking to Centennial and Anniversary tables restored....but from what I'm understanding over the phone with their questions.....is the older true antique tables that guys offer are gorgeous tables and beautiful furniture...that play very well.
On the other hand....when people are wanting to buy Anniversay or Centennial tables.....they want the best of both worlds.
They are looking to get a beautiful table......but they also just as importantly what that table to play as good or better than today's commercial Diamonds and Brunswicks.
That's what I do on the tables I restore.....I truly believe....and have had a lot of others agree...that when I'm done with the table and set the table up......I would put my table against any commercial table made today.
I just don't understand why some want their table to look great....but just play...well OK.
Just because the balls bounce....don't mean the table plays great.
Remember one thing about a pool table...if you remember anything.......all tables will role off to some degree....may it be the balls out of round....the cloth dirty....or for whatever reason....no table will play 100% perfect....but some can get them really close to perfect.
BUT.....the rails are aways going to play the way they were worked on and how the cushions were installed.
Putting good money into the looks of a commerical table....but not have that table play great....just don't make sense.
Anniversay and Centennial tables were built for commercial play......and should play as good as any commercial table.
That's why my tables take longer to get.....I want that table to look awesome...and play even better......and that takes time rebuilding those tables better than when they came from the factory to start with.
I make a lot of changes on those tables to play great and look great.
Hope everyone understands what I'm trying to get across.....and not trying to say look at me......just trying to help people get what their paying for....not what they expect to get.
