Recovered rails. Notice the relief in the rail in picture 3, now the pocket liner ears fit nice and snug.

Best work I have seen of anyone trying to tighten rails the right way everything in those pictures are top notch. Only two questions i have were did you get the red facing i only find black or white. The wood spacers i assume are 1\4" mahogany ply or do you use something better.

Thanks again for the informative picture's and great advise you give out.

I think I'm delivering 3 pool tables to you or something, so I guess I'll be seeing you shortly.

You can get the red at Home Depot, or Lowe's. Normaly I get it at a rubber supplier back home. Yes, I used 1/4" Mahogany ply, but I also have 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8" solid wood at home for creating different openings.

By the way, them pocket liners were not even screwed in at the time I took the pictures, they're just sitting there. That's why I create the relief for the cloth in the extentions, so that the extending of the sub-rail won't interfear with the ears of the pocket liners when they mount up.

I don't know what Brian is planning. Last I heard he was shipping them today because of your busy schedule. Have you talked to Brian about them recently?
