Hope you measured the room correctly.

Looks fantastic - nice to have a blank canvas to work with for your room.

If you don't mind the asking, why even go down the road of messing with the rails just to reduce pocket size a little? I don't play competitively, so have no basis for asking in that context, but wondering what the real gain is with that.

Doing the rails will have it play a bit better than just shimming the pockets. But it is more involved and may not be worth it on a home table. I had a similar table shimmed to 4.5 toward the end of its tenure with me. Shims are not ideal but 5” pockets on those tables aren’t either. I am not an advocate of super tight equipment but 4.5 is pretty standard now. The shelf depth on that table is different from a Diamond so it will still be a little easier at a given pocket measurement.

I would probably just shim it to 4.5 when recovering it if the rubber is good. Balance the expense and playability. But YMMV etc…

Good morning,
Is this cue still available?
