Hi Everyone

Sharing the results of a two-year restoration project.

Removed years of dirt, bad paint jobs, Formica and mismatched parts. Remade frame elements. Stripped it right back, sourced original and custom parts from the US, Germany, Taiwan, Ireland & the UK, repainted, and designed new logos and decals.

The goal of the restoration was to tie it into the interior of the house and to have an activity for the family (3 young boys) to play together. A local snooker table tech helped me level expertly, and it plays like a dream.

It was a lot of work, but we think the work paid off. Looks right at home in the space now.

Gained tons of expertise and ideas for AZ Forums, thanks everyone!

Wow, amazing looking table.
They look awesome in white.
Did you have any issues cutting out the badge insert as I had to make a JIG to do that.
Also what did you use as rail sights.
I enjoyed your pics !!!

It's hard to see on these images, but I used white leather to replace the formica on the rails; it came out well, and it was easier to cut the badge insert.

I used "10mm Black Mother of Pearl Inlay Dots" on eBay for the rail site's 10mm leather punch and 10mm drill bit.

How did you protect it from staining? There's a reason white leather wraps on cues aren't popular.
