You are correct!

VINTAGE Hackwork Hacks even existed back in the 40's & 50's. :rolleyes: This is from a set of Anniversary rails. Rails had K66 cushions along with the other obvious shortcomings :thumbup:

Or if you do a lot of tables, just buy the 9" rollers and cut them into thirds. I use the 3/16" nap.

What do you expect when he buys the stuff in 55 Gal drums? :rolleyes:

use it up ASAP What I've found is that the longer the glue goes unused, it starts to "separate" and you have to make sure you mix it up well before use. As it gets older, and the more it is exposed to air, it gets thicker and gums up a lot easier, making it harder to work with. IMO it...

Pix look great! Congrats on a job well done :clapping:

Agreed! Jay is one of the best. :yeah:

Felice & Ivan is good people :clapping:

Glen, tell me you're kidding right???? WTF :rotflmao1:

All Diamonds refurbished! I'm adding subrail extensions right now to table 12, and it will be finished Friday afternoon. This is the last table to be redone. All of the 9' Diamonds have new Artemis cushions, pockets tightened up, and Simonis 860HR Tournament Blue cloth :thumbup: Tables are...

The spot serves as not only the location marker to rack the balls, but it also protects the cloth from the wear and tear of hard breaks. The magic marker spot is ok for one pocket & 14.1, but breaking at full speed without a spot could eventually wear a hole right through the cloth! :nono:

No, they are not typically included. You can purchase them directly from Simonis. I believe they are .25 cents a piece and come in sheets of 10 spots.

Yep those are 1/2" narrow crown staples combined with the 3-M 10 glue. If you're using the nice neoprene facings, make sure you scuff or lightly sand off that slick sheen on the glue side and it holds a lot better ;)

Simonis gets my vote :thumbup:

I have never attempted this, but as far as stretching the rubber, it will stretch a little, but 1/2" might be too much? :confused: Not sure if or how much it would affect the playabilty, but I would make sure your glue bond is secure on the rubber if you're stretching it that much, as it might...

Been a while since I posted any pics so here's a Diamond Pro subrail extension job. This was 1 of 2 Diamonds I tightened the pockets up @ Michael's Billiards, Fairfield, OH. Constructive criticism appreciated ;) https://picasaweb.google.com/114351443120585754709/DiamondProSubrailExtension#

Get the Diamond and fugettaboutit! The table will outlive you, your grandkids, their grandkids... Etc.;)

I second that....

Looks great John, keep the updates coming! :clapping:

As a side note.... Michael has put a lot of $$$ into refurbishing his Diamond tables, and they are playing great! With the exception of a couple tables which I haven't finished yet, they all have recently had new Artemis cushions and Tour Blue Simonis 860 HR cloth installed. :thumbup:
