I just installed a 9' table and I put a 9'x12' wool under it and it looks great and the table fits great on it. I found the rug at a Pottery Barn outlet for $300. I will try to post some pics this week

I made a road trip (6 hour round trip) today to look at 3 tables and I am glad I did. The Brunswick Anniversary was missing some wood on one end and the rails had been repaired. The slate also had a chuck ( 3" x 2" long) missing and the guy said bees wax would be an easy fix. Most of the slate...

Table choice. Thank you for your help. I am going to look at a 1931 Randolf and a 1950's anniversary and a 1997 GC Monday. I think these are better choices. More expensive but worth it. The Randolf is $2200, the Anniversary is $2400 with deliverey and the GC is $2900 with Delivery. I think I...

My wife is from Brooklyn NY and is full Italian so does that count. She has been living with a redneck southerner for about 13 years but she still has the accent.

Last Question I probably will not play league pool due to the cigarette smoke. I will use the table for myself and friends. I am going to look at both tables Monday and I found and 1997 GC in the same area and I will look at it as well. The asking price for the GC is $2900 but that includes...

Last Question thank you for the input

I know I am driving you guys crazy with questions. I hope this is the last one. I have narrowed my choice down to either a 1930's 9' Brunswick Randolph or a 1950's 8' Brunswick Anniversary ( I cant find any good GC in my area). They both are priced around $2000. Are these good tables and if so...

Sport King I reallly appreciate everyones help. I need to deceide which table and just get it.

Is a 1960's something Brunswick Sport King a good table for home use? I found one for $1000 that has new (2005) Brunswick speed rails and I think I can get it for less. Thanks

I found a 1960's Brunswick Sport King for $1000 and it has new Brunswick speed rails. I think I can get the guy to lower the price some. Is this a good table and what is a fair price? Thanks

Thanks for all the advice. I will keep looking. I want a table bad and dont know if I will ever find the right one. I live in a small town so good tables dont come along too often.

Is ask the mechanic on the AZ Billiard site? Thanks

I am still searching for a table and found a 9' Big G Gandy that seems to be in good shape. I could not roll a ball against the rails because the cloth was not attached but they felt firm. The guy wants $1400 plus $300 to install but he wants to reuse the Simonis 860 cloth. Can you reuse the...

Update I think the guy selling the tables suggested the Diamond because it was his while the GC is on consignment. He told me the GC has a broken pocket and a few other minor issues. I found another place closer and I will go look at them in person. I would been lost without all the help from...

Diamond Table Is Sold The Diamond table sold today so now the guy is offering me a 9' Porter table for $2500. I have done some research on the Porter tables and they seem to get good reviews. Does anyone have one or ever had one and if so were you happy with it? Thanks
