I have a 9' Pro Am. It is my personal home table and I also wanted it to be as quiet as possible. Does it make a lot of noise "as is" from the factory? ----No Can it be made quieter? ---Absolutely! One thing I didn't like was the sound of the balls rolling on the hard plastic ball tracks...

Yes but not by much. Those pics are from a full subrail replacement, just adding rail extensions wont add as much material so the important thing is to use strong glue and a sharp blade.

I use a miter saw with a good quality 80 tooth blade. You must make sure that the cushion is adhered very tight to the subrail. If it breaks loose during the cut, that's when you'll ruin the rubber. It helps to have added material on the other side of the cut, so make the extensions a lot longer...

Here's some pics of the proper way to do the job. Hope this helps! https://photos.app.goo.gl/b1JfXtmh29oKBq1X7 https://photos.app.goo.gl/7jJzyvURddFCucCt7 https://photos.app.goo.gl/LzPQAa8Zv7y8dX1o7

I'd have no problem recommending MBS cushions for a GC or any other table. They're actually very good and faster than Superspeed IMO and I've never seen a set go bad.

Call Jay Spielberg from Bedford, NH. One of the best mechanics in the USA. 603-765-6160 If he can't do it, I'm sure he knows someone closer to you that can, or I'd be happy to get them fixed up for you if you're willing to ship to Indiana. 🙂

Hi, I'd be happy to help get your rails tuned up. Call or email with any questions...

I want to give a shout out to Jay Spielberg (AZB username A-1 billiards). Jay helped me out by providing me with a hard to find set of Centennial rails after a set that I had restored got lost in the mail on the return trip to the table owner. I highly recommend Jay to anyone needing pool...

I met the new owner a few days ago. He said they are currently building rails but would be a few weeks before they're ready.

Table turned out great! Should be good for another Century :)(y) I can't take any credit for the refinish. That was done by a friend of mine, James Krieger. Excellent work by him as usual. Perfect job on the rails as well as adding new Cherry veneer on the bases. Here's a few pics of the...

I got the formica from Jerimy Chambers. Not sure how much of it he had left though.

It isn't easy. I did it to a GC1. I started with a heat gun but that didn't work too well so I used a power hand planer and just slowly shaved it off. Makes a helluva mess! Might be better off just glueing the veneer right to the formica if it is thin enough...

Yes... Makita 10" sliding compound miter saw. You need a good, sharp 80 tooth blade and I also spray the blade before each cut with dry lube spray. Go slow and say a little prayer and you'll be fine!

I use a miter saw with great results and predictable, repeatable precision. Works well for me but there's more than 1 way to do a good job.

The Professional uses timber strand beams. I will say the Paragon is built very well, the 4 legs as well as the rail assembly is very heavy.

My helper and I completed the install in about 4 hours

Thought I'd share a few pics of a new 9' Diamond Paragon table install that QADDICTION and I recently completed. Nice table!

Thanks, Trevor. Glad we could help you get that nice GC up and running. One of the nicer ones we've had the pleasure of installing! Congrats on acquiring this fine table.

PM sent....

+1 for Mike. Great guy and a true ambassador to the pool world! I'm a proud owner of his work and would recommend him to anyone.
