Thanks Lawnboy77. I asked about it in the ask a mechanic forum, and they confirmed that my table takes k66 cushions. Once I took the old cushions off the rails, it's apparent that they're k66 as well.

Thanks Patrick. I just wanted to be sure before I glued the new accufast cushions down. Today I peeled one of the old Fleetwoods off the rail, and without the felt the old cushions are measuring k66 dimensions.

I was advised to come here (Ask a Mechanic) from another thread in the main forum. I bought a used Olhausen 8 foot pool table that has "Oct 13, 1987" written in marker on the underside of the cabinet. I'm also replacing the cushions and cloth. I disassembled the rails yesterday and the old...

So I disassembled the rails yesterday and the old cushions are championship Fleetwood's which I understand to be k55 profile. Does this mean I can't install new accufast cushions on this old olhausen table? Can you switch between k55 and k66? If I should stick with k55, would Brunswick...

Okay thanks everyone for your replies. @Lawnboy77, what would you say the table is worth? I paid $1000 because I thought the Olhausen name was well worth it, and I also thought the rails did have Accufast cushions. It looks like I was mistaken. :(

Okay, thanks book collector. Maybe I'll just use beeswax and put the felt on and see how the table plays. If the scratches affect anything then, I'll revisit trying something to alleviate the symptom.

Thanks AzHousePro. Yeah, I tried 3 different image hosting sites to no avail.

Hey everyone. I've read a fair amount on azbillards.com and I appreciate the wealth of knowledge. I just bought a used Olhausen 8-foot 3-piece slate table, and I have three questions 1. Does anyone know how old this table is? The seller said it was about 10 years old, but there's a date written...
