    Leveling the Table

    The mechanic didn't level the table. You level the table between the bottom of the legs to the floor, since the floor is the variable, not the build of the table.

    Gold Crown question: Table Height Adjustment & Restoring Leg Feet

    The best way to raise the playing surface is not with the feet levelers, the best way is to place 3/4" plywood pads between the frame and the pedestals in all 4 corners of the pedestals. That way the frame isn't shaking on the levelers.

    Can a 3 piece slate ProAm be moved on the cart?

    Yes, absolutely can be flipped into a Diamond cart and moved like it's a 1 piece slate. As long as the slate seams are superglued correctly, and all the rail bolts are tight, nothing will happen to the seams. I wouldn't give 2 seconds of thoughts to any of these naysayers, I have way to many...

    Looking for a steel GCI foot

    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...

    Looking for a steel GCI foot

    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...
