Thanks! I will tell my wife

Finally done! It took longer than i expected but it was worth it...the table shoot great. I ended up extending the subrails to 4-1/2" pockets. New feet, new pockets, new rubber, and new corner castings. I can't believe my wife agreed to put it in the living room.

I cant remember the angle, but I did adjust them...Probably based on your posts. I looked at so much info...I don't even know where my notes are now.

Where is Tyler? Could he get bumped out of the top 3 for Mosconi?

These are all great updates! I really like being able to see how I performed on drills over time. DM sent

I guess I am getting to be a pool snob. I don't enjoy playing on bad equipment. I also get bothered with people that don't take care of their stuff.

Polished the formica the best that I could. Just didn't have the guts to try to replace it. Getting the glue off the rails from the old rubber turned out to be a challenge. I finally decided to make a skim pass through my table saw. They cleaned up nicely. Added superspeed K55 rubber.

The legs were in horrible shape. After I cleaned them up I saw that someone have used a pipe wrench to adjust the table height and they had deep marks. I thought I would fill with bondo and have them painted but that was starting to look expensive. My wife suggested that I should buy some new...

Decided to resize the pockets to 4.5". The ends of the rails were soft to I trimmed them back and added oak to extend them. The rails still had some soft wood so I chiseled that all out and filled it with oak as needed. I sanded it down smoothe but no pics.

Quite a few of these screws were stripped and some were bent...someone suggested I fill the holes with glue and toothpicks but I decided to drill all holes and dowel them. I replaced the flathead screws with Phillips.
