Looks like you have forgot something important! I like the work you have been doing on your antique. These tables used a U-23 cushions which is easily mistaken for a K-66 profile because it is just a sight bit smaller. From the work the hacker did on your table before, I would guess he flipped...

26' Regina I would be happy to quote you on the railwork for your Regina. If you are not in a big hurry, I will be flying into Memphia for Xmas since my folks live in Collierville. I think I responded to your post about refinishing the pockets as well. Let me know if I can be of any help. Rob...

Antique Table iron refinish You all are correct with recommending Hood Leather, I deal with them regularly for pocket retooling. What they don't do is the plating and polishing of the actual irons. I send my irons to a company in Philadelphia that does a lot of plating for antique irons. The...

Hey Guys, Just wanted to show off one of the tricks of the trade that King Cobra went over at the Chicago seminar. Though a bottle jack was used at that time, when this was taken all I had was the scissor jack in my Express Van! As it turns out, the linear control vs hydraulic might actually...

Pictures of some of my work Hey Glen, I have a few pictures of the miter bench that I have been doing railwork with lately. Though it is not very portable, I can take it with me to pool hall on site when needed. The fence will get upgraded to aluminum shortly, it is crude but accurate now. I...

Subrail extensions I would be interested in quoting anyone for custom subrail extensions. In my wood and metal fabrication studio I can handle just about anything you can throw my way. My prices are very competitive and I do offer a discount to offset the shipping costs if you are out of my...

Changes in Recession? This is a very relevant to all of us out there who make a living through the game. Myself, I am a table mechanic who is thinking about opening a room in the next few years. I have a few ideas that I have yet to hear on here.. 1) pool players are typically bachelors or at...
