Like everyone else, I've always thought yours is incredible! You did a great job.

When I was restoring my Anniversary, my wife said to me, you're spending so much time on this that you're not going to let your son and his friends play on it. I went over the no food, drink, etc. with him, and how he was responsible to enforce the rules. It all worked out. Good luck.

Over the last 10-15 years I built 3-4 bucket style polishers with dividers such that I could only clean 4 balls at a time. They were all so loud I would use them in the garage. Further, not having an offset pallet, I had to manipulate the balls mid cycle onto a different axis to get all surfaces...

Thanks for posting. I've never been able to watch an entire one pocket match without falling asleep. I really enjoyed every minute of this one and came away Impressed with DD's ability to cut balls in from everywhere. I wish I had that table, my all time favorite.

I think the biggest issue with selling an Anniversary, is the market is relatively small. The vast majority of players I know have no idea what an Anniversary or Centennial is, and as a result would pay no more for one than the cost of an average used furniture table. One has to specifically be...

Thanks for the update. You're making good progress.

Here you go Jay. By the way, your old Anniversary is up and running again.

Don't forget the score counters.

Good job! My castings had a poorly finished reliefs that I chased with a file to clean up.

Exactly as Hungarian said. As far as chalk goes I've always been able to reach in and grab it so I don't know if it would push through.

Thanks. The outboard surface of one of my pedestals was pretty beat up due to sun damage. I knew I would not be able to get a decent finish on it so I re-veneered them. Then as one thing leads to another, in an effort to have a similar finish on all the wood I did the same thing to the skirts...
