What he said... Pat will treat you right!

John, Not to many recovery's on those slate liners? Is the rest of the table in good condition? Obviously the previous mechanical work is crap, but hows the table look all done? Inquiring minds want to know. Jay

Tommy, Congratulations, I'll bring the highchair down to World Class. Right next to uncle Howie in the corner...:grin-square::grin-square::grin-square: Jay

John, If this strategy works for you thats great! My experience with getting the customer involved with the hands on operations has not worked out very well and I therefore "TRY" to avoid it. It sounds like you've got it mastered so "thats good, real good" and I'm happy for you! Could you now...

Great job Chris! Any good stories about the back stage goings on, inquiring minds want to know...:thumbup: Jay

John, Your getting a little defensive, IMHO. I never suggest to the customer that they get involved in any aspect of the table service. Moving, packing, transportation, disassembly, locating the table in the room, ect...... From my experience these are all jobs better left to a paid...

Rob, Schmidt Ivanhoe is a number 6 iron...for sure! Hood leather has the irons and the pockets. Jay

Shane, Bar tables pay the highest hourly rate of any service work I do. With good technique and proper set up $75-$100 per working hr. is no problem. I recommend hooking up with your vendors, and your bar rooms that own their tables, it's truly residual income. Jay

I was going to be in the Lake Placid area. It looks like about 300 miles to Buffalo. I'll be sure to see you guys at the SBE in March. Be well Jay

Thanks for the recommendation Mark. with so many scams and shams it's very difficult to know if an offer is legit or a con job these days. Jay

John, I'll be there with my co-worker Josh. I've taken the liberty to invite Dave, but that will not be confirmable until 7-8 minutes before we start eating dinner...LOL Jay

Josh, where is Painted post NY close to. It would be great to hook up with you and Donny if our paths are close to crossing. Jay

I agree that Josh and Don are good. I had the pleasure of working with them side by side and they are both really nice people as well. I would recommend them highly to anyone interested in have work done...:thumbup: Jay

You may notice in the picture of the covered rails that the staples are only at the ends of the rails, the entire middle section, both top and bottom are glued to the back of the rail. Glen was very generous in sharing his technique of double gluing rails at the Alsip seminar. I glued and...

Jim, Try the Ridge-back rails that Kerry makes. He has resolved the "thud" problem by using a third ridge down the middle of the rail. They also employ a stronger t nut so the rail is very secure and tight to the rail cap. Using 3-M 77 to attach the cloth to the "gaps" in the back of the rail...

Clark, RKC, is having so much fun, I hope your charging him accodingly..:grin-square: Admission to Disney is up to $75.00 a day. I know when I called Glen, he was running the router, something about slate frames needing adjustment. Lot of power tools at work up there in Washington state, make...

I agree also, brief and to the point. I particularly like the "would you recommend us" question from Syracuse John! Plant the seed early for future recomendations...Love it. Jay

I've installed 3 inch blocks on a Peter Vitalie table bringing the playing surface to 34 inches +or-. The customer also was quite tall and suffered back pain. He claims it really helps him practice longer and is much more comfortable than a standard 30 inch table. If you go much above 34 inch...

Rob, It's very hard to do good business with bad people. Unfortunately, we usually don't find this out until we are well into the job. I'll always try to go back and fix or repair any problem as long as I'm getting reasonable respect from the customer. If the goodwill is not retrievable even...

No rest for the wicked Craig. Good luck and try to enjoy the game tonight.
