Fixing sway back on a Brunstone table

[seelesscacti]

I'm no expert, but I always had a hard time leveling my table, and in my searches here I discovered my Brunswick table has Brunstone. I brought a mechanic to install the cloth, and he couldn't level it perfectly, either.

So, couple questions: If my table is very difficult to level perfectly -- balls seem to suck into the rails among other issues -- does that mean it has "sway back"? Can anything be done to fix this on Brunstone? Does sway back get worse over time, or stay about the same?

Could a skilled mechanic refinish Brunstone to be perfectly level? Is so, cost-wise, might I just be better off buying new slate or a new table? If I fixed the Brunstone, could sway back return?

Better off with real slate instead of sandstone, it's to brittle to try and shim it up to take the swayback out from side to side...it'll just crack in the process.
