Did you replace cushions,facings and feather strips? If so what did you use?

I'm curious about the slate/Brunstone. From the pictures it appears that, if anything, the slate is a tad thicker than the Brunstone. But I thought the Brunstone was 1 1/4' and the slate was 1'.

Just wondering if there is a reason for this. Perhaps did they do the Brunstone at the thicker 1 1/4" later, like when it was an option on the GC3?
 
I'm curious, the picture of the nameplate is not very clear, but it appears to be metal instead of acrylic. Wouldn't that make this table an early GCII?

I only ask because I picked a used table that appears to be just like this one with brunstone slates, and the figure eight rail plates; however, my table also has a metal nameplate and adjustable feet.

I have been reading every post on this forum regarding GC identification, and I'm still not sure what model table I have. I had resolved to the fact that I had a very early GCII, with left over GCI rails.

I also apologize ahead of time, as this is probably not the thread to ask these questions, but the pictures make a good reference.

Thanks in advance.

No, No and No
All of the above was good and customer didn't want anymore costs that weren't necessarily needed

If i may, why do you ask?

It has adjustable feet as well. I would date the table later in the GC1 phase with older rails. It had the Gold Crown sticker on stretcher still.
