+3 Yes, Easy-Off oven cleaner will remove anodizing from aluminum. The active ingredient in the yellow can of Easy-Off is sodium hydroxide (lye), which chemically reacts with and strips the anodized layer and its dye, leaving behind raw aluminum. [1, 2, 3] How the Process Works The...

There is no difference between a GC2 and GC1 so stop looking for GC2 specific parts, they don't exist.

The weight on the foot in nit supported by the threads in the foot, the weight is supported on the top of the foot by the JAM nut locking the threads in the foot to keep the rod from being unscrewed from the foot. Leveling takes place in the flange that the foot rod screws into, that's why it's...

I work on pool tables for a living, not as a hobby, unless you think 44 years working on pool tables is still a hobby! Bottom line is, I'm nit the one that screwed up the foot on your table, you did! I gave you a fix to your problem, and you call it a zip-tie solution, have a good day, I'm done...

Hey Einstein, do you see that nut on the stud you keep dropping into the foot? That's the JAM nut used to keep the stud from un-screwing from the foot when adjusting the level. No different than a jam nut on a rod if the same make, held in the foot on the inside by a nut, or hex head bolt...

Like I said, leveling a GC don't take place by adjusting the foot up and down on the stud, it takes place by screwing the stud up or down in the flange mounted in the bottom of the pedestals!

Alright Einstein, tell me what the zip-tie is in my suggestion, I've done that 100's of times with GC's.

Is this really that hard to figure out? The level adjustment is made in the flange mounted to the inside of the pedestals, NOT in the foot! Take that threaded rod out of the flange, then go get a hex head bolt, same thread, long enough that when you insert it into the foot, it sticks up about...

That was the correct decision!!

I have learned the hard way, never assume anything🤣😅

If you're stretching 3.5" side to side, are you also using the same stretching at both ends as well? Because if not, you're over stretching the side to side, and understreching the end to end!

Wrong, level the body first, then tighten the rails, then adjust with the leveling system. Tightening the rails before the body has been leveled will hold the table frame to the level of the floor and you won't be able to level the frame afterwards.

If you're talking about setting the torque on a set of head bolts, I agree, but we're talking about the low level torque on pool table rail bolts. Before I started to establish a standard on Diamond rails, there has never been an established torque recommend on any rail bolts, by any...

The "King" would have told you that putting tension on the cushions, as in stretching them while installing them is a big NO NO😅🤣😂

No, they won't.
