    Help with antique J.E. Came pool table disassembly advice, tips, instructions

    If you use needlenose pliers, i suggest clamping a pair of visegrips near the points to prevent them from breaking at the joint as they’re obviously not meant to be used that way…it’s also going to give you a good handle to turn the bolt

    Brunswick probably did custom orders like this for 6x12 that were not offered in their catalogs. I have a viscount 6x12 for sale that is not offered in that size too

    Re working my old table, have you ever seen this -RJS

    Pins between the slates are common on old tables. As for the slate cuts , they probably didn’t have big holesaws to cut the slate pockets. I’ve seen a bunch finished this way with a wood block . My guess is it predates ww1 and the slate being 1.5 inch With 6 legs it must be a snooker table, not...

    Scott Frost's opinion about Predator tables

    I just hate the fact that you have to completely knock down the rails to change the cloth. What a waste of time for a commercial table that is going to have the cloth changed more than a furniture grade Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant AzBilliards Forums

    What Is Up With Master Chalk?

    I think your hand got blue like that from the cloth being dirty and full of chalk not from a chalk being too soft. Even if i tried very hard i don’t think i could get it on the palm of my hand just by chalking the tip. Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant AzBilliards Forums

    I can pound a nail with a screwdriver, tighten bolts with a pair of wisegrips or use whatever i have on hand to do what i have to.
