The table is in!!!!!!!!! Full cue all around, as planned. Oscar and his helpers were incredible. Such a nice guy and talk about precise. The man knows his stuff. All the hard work it took to get to this point is really starting to feel like it’s paying off. There’s still a lot of work to do to...

Lol I know the feeling! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Will do. Thanks for the advice. We bought some carpet tape for the carpet stair treads and that stuff is strong! Ripped the finish right off. I’ll definitely look into the Alien tape. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The place is a mess. Flooring needs to be finished. Floors and carpet need to be cleaned. But I’m at a point where the table can be installed on the area rug. Going to stop installing the flooring for now, clean the floors and drag all of the table components into the room and get things ready...

Thank you! Greatly appreciated. I got lucky and was able to acquire my light from a local pool hall that closed. If I were you, I’d build my own light using pine board or wood of your choice and two, 2x4 led panels. That was the plan until I came across the Brunswick light. Sent from my...

It honestly wasn’t too bad. I made two mistakes. 1) I rented an airless paint sprayer from Home Depot. The sprayer worked great. The problem was, I had the nozzle opened way too much and didn’t realize it until I was really going. Paint rained down and dripped everywhere. 2) When I started, I...

Thank you! Doing what we can over here. It’s crunch time! I’ll never do it again. That was terrible. Just laminate. That’s all the budget would allow. Didn’t have a ton of choices in this price range. It’s so easy. The newer version locks the pins in place so there’s no chance at losing...

Flooring in progress. Oscar from Pool Tables 911 is set to arrive tomorrow between 12 & 2pm. Down to the wire. Have to keep grinding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. I’m going to save that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Saker gauge is a pretty clever invention. Love this thing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you. Hopefully as people go through this as well, part of what I’ve done will help streamline the process for someone in regards of what to do or even look at what I’ve done with certain things and do it better for their renovation. I wanted to do a lot of things differently but the money...

Thanks dude! Yeah I’m posting a lot of pics. Mostly, the reason for that is because when this is all done, I’m going to print out all the pictures and put them in an album and have it sit on the mantle. I figured this thread will help remind me of the order things were done in. Sent from my...

Lol. Pretty damn close. At that point, I had enough. Fed up and ready to just throw in the towel and come back to it a few months later. I’m glad we kept going though. There’s been a few hiccups so far. But I’ll never do a project of this magnitude again. That much I know. Or at least not in...

In the first pic below there are four holes in the ducts that need to be resolved. The first of the four is done. The pool table light will cover that one up. That was the air vent that had a duct down to the floor with a vent on the wall of the den side. It’s closed now. The biggest hole you...

Just scored some more items from Bob (Drexeline) for my room. The first pic is of a poster that I’ve been after for quite a while. Not a lot of them out there. Or they don’t pop up very often. About 10 or so years ago (somewhere around there) I had this poster hanging in my home pool room in...

That’s how I roll dude. Lol. “Almost” finished. I feel like I’m still far from the finish line but at least the table is getting installed Tuesday. I hope so! It’s been 7 years since I’ve had a table at home. I’ve thought about this lower level conversion ever since my second cousin said he’d...

Getting ready for flooring tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lol your probably right. Definitely going to be a major distraction. Thank you! It’s getting there! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We’re getting there folks. We’re getting there. I’m confident we will be at the point of being able to have the table installed on Tuesday. Will we have everything completely finished out? No. Other small things will have to be done. Here’s where we’re at. The first pic is of my failed...

Thanks for the advice. I couldn’t even begin to describe how this house was built. Nothing is square. Nothing lines up. It’a daunting when you start opening up walls and what you find. The electrical? Well that’s a thread all in it’s own. You wouldn’t believe the things we found. I’m surprised...
