Thanks Jay, appreciate the offer! Matt was accidentally given a set of aprons that went on a 10' GC, and we didn't realize they were the wrong size until we were actually assembling the table. Matt will be able to return the aprons to Ed Hiller and get the right ones.

Matt, Thanks for the kind words, it was a pleasure working with you! (Matt also went out of his way to buy us breakfast and lunch, which was very much appreciated :thumbup:)

Sounds good to me! Can never get enough quality training as you keep raising the bar ;)

Sanded and repainted rusted nut plates, drilled out and retapped broken off rail bolts, replaced "worm wood" on underside of rails with new Poplar wood. Recalibrated pocket corner, side, and down angles; 141*, 102* and 15* respectively. Corner pockets ended up @ 4 11/16" Recalibrated subrail...

A few pix of some rail rehab I performed on an old set of GC I rails...

If you're mad at your money, get Artemis Intercontinental #66, which will set you back around $300. If you want the best bang for your buck get some Diamond K55 cushions. They are good quality and will work well on your GCIII! I also would recommend Jay Spielberg, one of the best IMO :thumbup:

Phenomenal work as usual! It's like M*A*S*H for pool tables! Mobile Awesome Subrail Help :cool: Glen, I didn't know you were like that with Col. Klinger?!? :canoodle:

You should get at least 4.5" of stretch side to side with Pro Form on 8' table. I have found that the green cloth stretches more than burgundy FWIW.

Thanks Donny, The extensions are made out of Walnut. I picked up a nice scrap piece from a hardwood shop that works well. :thumbup:

I cut the cushions with a razor knife and then use a sanding disc to finish off the ends.

I recently had the pleasure of setting up a Gold Crown II for fellow AZ member "Snipershot". Joe requested 4.5" corners, 5" sides, and wanted the table "Diamondized". In other words, changing the corner pocket angles to 141 deg. with 15 deg. down angle, and side pockets at 102 deg. I also...

Snipershot is good people! I'd like to thank Joe & son for being such a hospitable host to myself and my helper, Todd. He treated us to pizza and cold beer along with breaking the seal on a 20 year old bottle of Crown Royal to celebrate the grand opening of the man cave! He has a great...

Yes thats right.

Matt, Make sure there is room in the truck bed for the slate to sit flat. Hopefully the trailer hitch wont be in the way. Load the slate first. You can stack the 3 pieces together but be careful when you slide them against each other. Make sure there are no staples, screws, etc. protruding...

Try posting your request in the "talk to a mechanic" forum. There are a few top-shelf mechs in your area that can do a great job.

Well, it doesn't specifically need to be rail cloth, just a piece big enough to cover the inside of the pocket to prevent the ball marks. Any kind of black fabric (or whatever color matches the pocket) would do the job, the goal here is to simply install a barrier between the ball and the...

Get a piece of black rail cloth and line the pocket with it. You can probably use spray adhesive.

I'm not sure but I'm guessing they are just tables that he used to have in his room years ago. He currently has 18 GC4's and 2 Diamond Bar Boxes in his room in Orland Park.

Gold Crowns 4 sale Interested in a Gold Crown? Ed Hiller, owner of Pro Tyme Billiards in Orland Park, IL (southside Chicago) has several GC 1,2,3 & 4 for sale. The 1's & 2's are selling for around $1000 and are in great condition.

For a 9' table with a playing area of 50" x 100" and a 58" cue, you need 14',6" x 18',8".
