Rack holder Guys I just finished another small project, a rack holder. I did not had an original to take measurement from but it's should be close. Now I need to find an original Brunswick rack to match with the table. There is nothing great or affordable on Ebay actually. Martin

Last call Last call Guys, before I throw them away Here is a picture Martin

Hello Guys I have a bunch of old fastener left from my Anniversary project. I'm about to throw them away and I wonder if those fasteners may be of any value for somebody ? It's not a complete set since some of them have been change over the years but there is a bunch : Square bolt 1/2-13...

Hello Guys I'm back, sorry to be long to answer. This thread is getting out of hand but in a really good way. Thank you SMT for the ptototyping and testing, it will really save me a ton of beginner's trial and error. It make a lot of sense that the long radius at the top is continious and do...

Hello Kid Nice to hear from you. I like the idea but I wonder if the Aluminum may damage the bridge stick, but on the other hand it's only a bridge and not a cue. I think it's good idea but I had my share of aluminum polishing for a while. Thanks Martin

I also found that kit from a supplier in Montreal, looks similar to the other one. BTW if you have another material to suggest, I'm open to suggestion, I was looking at maple because it was easy to find and can make a strong assembly but it can be sothing else. Thanks Martin...

Thanks Boxcar I think it's a great idea. Martin

SMT you keep impressing me with your will and generosity. At the beginning I wa talking about 1/2 th. but I Thnik it's way too thick, I think 3/8 is probably plenty enough maybe even 5/16"th. may work. Excuse my ignorance but what is BE ? Theproduct I've posted here is also offered with 0.045"...

Sorry, double post...

Dimensions Guys Here is a quick drawing with dimensions. I've only rough guessed the dimensions. Any contribution is welcome to put the right dimension on the drawings. Picture with tape measure is fine also Thanks Martin

Hi Trent Ssonerai looks like a fantastic woodworker and he's really generous to share his knowledge. Dont hold your breath for the final product, it may take me a while to start the project, I've some other more boring stuff to do before but I want to gather as much information now, while the...

SMT While I've a machinist training and some working experience I'm only a hobby machinist. Actually I'm mechanical designer, I design tooling and machinery but I've always been facinated by the manufacturing processes and machine tools. I really like this setup, it's creativity at his best...

The next step I think is to have more precise dimensions. If anybody is kind enough to take some measurement on a existing bridge holder, it would be great. I'm actually in vacation but next week at work I can make a quick drawing to indicate the required measurement. Thanks Martin

Thank you for the link I want two of them, one on each side and also it's a nice challenging project for me, I really like to try new things. Martin

You type faster than me, I've missed your post while I was making mine. I see that you post on Practical Machinist, I use to hang around that forum quite a bit under the same user name some years ago.. Thank you so much, it will take me some time to read and digest all these great infos. Martin

I say it again , it's really impressive work. I'm living near Sherbrooke which is 100miles south-east of Montreal near the Vermont border. As for the dimension of the finish part, I just dont know them exactly , it was only a guess from the picture. I'm looking forward to see the other...

Wow SMT it's really impressive work... and thank you to answer all my question. I dont know the exact measurement of the part yet but it's should be roughly 10'' wide x 30'' long. As for the thickness it will be 1/2'' max ( they also offer 1/22'' thick core board which is giving a 3/8'' th...

As I said, my homework is not done yet but from what I've seen I was thinking to put the whole thing in a bag. I think I understand what is the bleeder layer (fluffy material near the vacuum port to let the air bleed) but I have no clue about the peel layer purpose. Did you look at the material...

Pat Thank you for the suggestion but I dont want to bother him with my doityourselfer project. If he's willing to share details here it would be great but I'll let him decide if he want spend the time to post something or not. Also I did not made my home work yet, I can probably still find...

For reference I've attached a picture from another restoration thread.
