I appreciate the engineering that was used under the hood of the GC7 however the ball return end look absolutely crap. The GC4 and GC5 were gorgeous looking tables.😁

Hi there, Ken from Classic billiards was the first place I tried. Ken is outstanding at what he does. He didn't have a set he could sell me unfortunatly. :)

Hi all, I'm after a pair of Gold Crown 1 rail score counters. Please let me know if you have a pair. Cheers 😄

Welcome😀

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 !!!

The phillips head screws is common in Australia. The Robertson screws are kind of unique here. So I've come to the conclusion that this GC1 was made in Canada hence why it is slightly different to the other GC's I've worked on .😀😀😀

Those square drives are used all over this table,

Yes the aprons bolt to the figure 8. I'm going to change them out to the regular skirt blocks as used in the later gold crowns.

Yes, These tables are very difficult to fine here. Even harder to find one which has always been privately owned😁

Hi there, That frame is the same frame.😀

Hi all, I purchased this Brunswick pool table yesterday, pulled it apart and got it it unloaded at my place. Please find the pic's below at it's pick up location. It has never been in a pool hall and was owned by an old guy for over 40 years. It was then purchased as you see it from another guy...

UPDATE: New replacement cloth has arrived. I would like to thank Alfred Dinkha from Simonis USA for being great to deal with and keeping me up to date. I had to wait until Simonis were doing a run of the colour "Slate" The table has now been sold so I'll arrange a recloth with the new owners...

The GC V is a good looking table no doubt. Some of the timber quality is suspect. Thanks for viewing

Then one day I finished it.

I trimmed off the rubber using a flap disc. It did a really nice job on those rubbers. 3mm Shore A60 Simonis 860. Colour is Slate. There were lots of gray colours out there but they were too light. I wanted a colour simular to Charcoal. Buffing up the alloy trims To remove the...

The Formica floating on top of the dowels. I've learnt to always over cut the Formica then simply trim the Formica to the rails. The Formica gets trimmed off using 80 grit stuck to a piece of alloy. That angle at the end of the alloy allows me to go get in nice and close. I would have thought...

Formica gets removed easily using a heat gun Someone has left writing under the Formica. I have no idea what it says. Rails get completely stripped I made up a template for the rail sights. So when the Formica is installed I know exactly where the sights should be. Formica getting cut...

While I'm here I block down all of the skirt corners The underside ot the skirts get finished off. I wasn't real happy with the finish of these so later on I redid them. Skirts get the Brunswick logo's applied. I get these reproduced at the local sign writers. Removing the original...

I feel much better now with a nice slate timber backing. Slate leveled and glued The 1st of many test fitting. But now we have a problem The skirts don't line up. When this table was installed at the clients place I could not work out why we couldn't get the skirts to line up. Then I...

Using MDF as a slate frame is crap. Sure it's nice and flat however it just falls apart. It's total crap. So off it comes The MDF has been epoxyed on. Absolute nightmare to remove What a load of crap. This went on for hours Then I decovered that if I use a belt sander I can just rip...
