Hello Jim,did you ever get the furniture style table that you were looking for? I have a Brunswick Royal Knight and a Peter Vitale Lord Nelson as well as a Tsunami model
I haven’t yet. Our house has been delayed a bit. I can get a black GC4 for around 3k but my wants me to get a furniture table. I keep looking at the Royal Knight on eBay that’s near Orlando but I think 10k is way too high. A while back I saw an AE Schmidt table that reminds me of a Kling, it was around 3k. If I can locate a good table at a reasonable price I’ll buy it and store it till our house is finished. Plus I want to send the rails to Jack Zimmerman to get the pockets tightened up.

What size Brunswick Royal Knight are you interested in? You wouldn't happen to be interested in a really nice Brunswick Gold Crown 6 tournament edition in matte black would you?
I’m only interested in 9’ tables. When I suck so bad that I can’t handle a big table I’ll just playing pool
The only good thing about a GC6 is that there’s no score counters. It’s going to come down to money. I’d rather have a Diamond but when I can get a nice GC4 on the cheap, that’s hard to turn down. Send me a price for the Royal Knight and Lord Nelson and I’ll check with my wife about the cost. Thanks

Considered a centennial? I always thought those were the best mix of class and playability.
Might be tough to find a cheap one

In regards to a Centennial, are you wanting a restored or an all original in excellent condition?
That's true
alphadog mentioned AE Schmidt. Always liked their tables but they moved away from commercial tables and now concentrating on home tables, therefore its nearly impossible to find one of their tables in a pool hall or tavern.
The good thing is, they still have the blueprints from the old days when they were trying to compete head to head with Brunswick.
Don't know what their thinking is, but last time I was in their shop they were building a special order/custom table.
Always liked how their tables played. 2 rail banks cross side or cross corner is completely different than a Brunswick. I liked it but if you compete, an old Schmidt will throw you off on a Brunswick. But also teach you how to adjust.

I had trouble getting used to those skinny rails when I first started playing. Was used to GCs comfy sides.
Sounds like you need one of those nice classic Brunswick Metros. Curves for days. More cushin' for the pushin'.I had trouble getting used to those skinny rails when I first started playing. Was used to GCs comfy sides.
Mmmmmmmm chubby!
I like the light wood of this table in a home environ.
That'll work!!
Prefer Drop Pockets tho.Got so used to GC rails that anything else felt strange. Doesn't help that my hands are Huge.
