Thanks, gentlemen! Glad I could get your rails fixed up for you. Anyone is welcome to ship or deliver their rails to me in Batesville, IN. I offer services as simple as cushion replacement to full on subrail replacement and expert refinishing services. Here's a few pics of Ron's GC...

9' Pro-Am Oak rails w/Walnut stain.... Bad pic, the legs look black but they are also the Walnut stain.

No words for this one :confused:

60" Ebony forearm and butt Golden Amboyna Burl points and windows Ivory inlays, joint and butt cap 5/16-14 pin Brown Elephant wrap Also includes 4" Ebony extension for the joint and 2 Durbin LD shafts. Mike did a fantastic job with this cue. I designed it and he brought it to life. No...

While I would never condone standing on top of a pool table, the fact is that these things are solid and most likely aren't going to be phased by the extra weight. Now as far as the cloth/cushions being damaged, that's a different story but the weight itself won't hurt anything. I can't...

Personally, I will always recommend to have the floating nut plates removed. It only takes one cross threaded bolt/nut plate that has to be dug out and repaired to change your mind! If you're replacing the nut plates, make sure you fill the void in the subrail with a piece of hard wood...

Also, if you remove the flashing before mounting the cushions, it makes it easier to align them more precisely to the top of the subrail.

I like to cut that mold flash off with a sharp scissors. Works fine and is much easier and quicker than sanding, IMO. Give it a try.

Thanks, RKC I do owe you a debt of gratitude for training me on bed and rail cloth installation. I am one that prefers to disassemble the rails on Diamonds when I recloth them. I just find it easier and can pull the cloth tighter that way. For sure takes longer but yields better results for me.

Great job, Reverend! That must have been a lot of time and effort to edit those videos.

Hi Geoff, We'll have to agree to disagree on this one, buddy! I say its correct as is but the black light test will be the proof, short of seeing which side the logo is printed on. Have a great day! :thumbup:

Here's a few comparison pics of the top and underside of Simonis 860 in Slate Grey. The bottom in noticeably "nappier" and not near as smooth as the top side. IMO it's obvious that the OP's cloth is indeed installed correctly.

One way to tell for sure would be to turn the room lights off and shine a black light on the cloth. You should see a serial number printed on the cloth which is a security measure that Simonis uses to tell if the cloth is indeed Simonis. I don't think the serial number will show up if the...

Thank you, sir. I enjoy the challenge of taking something that is old and worn out and making it like new again!

Does anyone have a vendor for these replacement pockets? (not Mueller's or Classic Billiards)

A friend of mine needs help... thanks.

Excellent work, as usual, Jerimy! :thumbup:

Here's a link to a subrail extension job on some Gold Crown rails if anyone is interested... https://goo.gl/photos/vNwVNfAwG24w9fhT7

Glen, you are right.... the bad work needs to be corrected! It's sad some of the work I come across that is done by guys that have been doing tables for years and years. I think the main problem is just lack of proper training. That's why I am very greatful to have learned a lot of this...
