Proper side pocket fold?

There was a discussion on here earlier about the different fold on the side pocket used in a Matchroom event recently.

I was wondering if someone could post a good clear picture of what a proper fold should look like?

Thanks

Make sure who ever posts the pictures shows the bottom of the rails too😅🤣😂that'll tell you if the fold is going to come lose and fall down later on!!!
 
Here ya go! The fold is supposed to be high like shown and not in the middle.

Here's a new one if I'm seeing it correctly. Railyard Billiards in Louiville. Scott Frost playing Fedor Gorst a race to 21 one pocket. Noticed a different fold watching the stream.

Whats different about it? The angle of view? Looks right to me, fold is nice and high.

Don't have bottom of the rail pics, unfortunately, but there's a bonus pic of some barbox rails. ;)

Is it me or is the fold low in the back and the points of the facing/ cushions look rounded?

p.s. Rose, the nice lady who does all the Diamond rails at the Diamond Factory showed me her method and it definitely looks different than that. In fact: they do the long and short rails COMPLETELY differently than the Simonis DVDs. There are 2 ladies back there and they are awesome.
 
Here's some pictures of the local table it's a Dynamo but the valleys beside it look the same.

Every mechanic should carry a pen knife or a set of micro screwdrivers. Gotta set the fold.
I did not know there was a national outage of guys who can't fold the side pocket.... I notice more loose bedcloths than issues with folds. IMO.
I think this must be causing the economy of our industry to crash!! LOL
