Whats this look like?

Atlanta is at least 2.5 hours away from me.

About 30 minutes from Columbia and Lexington, SC. If you know of someone good in this area please let me know.

Thank you that is very informative and well received. I've seen a guy use lines and marks on cloth headliners in muscle cars to be able to start cent front/rear windshield glass and measure stretch on each sides. I'll try and ask the guy about this w/o being perceived as questioning his...

Well if I can't find some new felt I may do some restoration on it. I've got a lot of paint and body, wood working tools and polishing equipment so the feet would not take a ton of time. I may buff out the pocket covers idk yet.

Ok my local installer just messaged me and says simonis 860HR cloth is on back order and he is not able to source it through his supplier. Anyone have a source for this in Electric blue first choice or tournament blue second choice for an 8 foot table?

I am wanting to get it covered in Electric blue with the 860HR cloth if that color is available. If not then probably the tournament blue I guess. I'm also partial to the burgundy actually as I am a SC Gamecock fan 🙃

I polished the feet up on one end last night just to clean them up a little. The top pic is before brasso and fine steel wool.

OK I finally had a moment to resize pics so lets try again. The frame on this beat is massive compared to some others I looked at. And the under slate boards that the felt staples onto are all hardwood and look to be poplar. All of the bolts are in gallon zip lock backs labeled and he put L's in...

I just purchased this Gold Crown II from a guy that had it for seven years and his dad had it for around 25 years before him. I think it's I've very nice condition considering it's age. So I am not going to restore it and have it setup by a guy who did a setup for a friend. I think it looks...
