I will, I usually don't get much response to questions there.
Ima small fish in a big pond. lol
nm lol read that wrong
If you are hiring someone to do it, might be preferred that you allow the mechanic to source it himself.
Still on the fence for a mechanic. Listening to the horror stories, why pay someone to screw things up when I can do it for free
All kidding aside I have the abilities and the tools to do it.
I'm working on quotes now.

Hello,
If you might be looking for a comparable product at a much less price, check out CPBA Worsted Cloth. https://www.amazon.com/CPBA-Competition-MG-700-Worsted-Professional/dp/B07PHXV4Q8?th=1&psc=1
I just installed it on 12 Valley's and so far I am completely sold on it because of these facts: 1. Easy to work with, 2. Cost, is super affordable, 3. It is strong, been watching the first set of tables we did to try to judge wear. So far very minimal burn marks. Plays very fast.
As for someone to work on your table, if you end up with an actual mechanic you will be happy. Results may vary if you use an "installer". Seems like you are confident, so I would recommend the Simonis Installation DVD's and do it yourself. You can buy the set here: https://www.seyberts.com/pool-table...nis-rail-bed-cloth-installation-training-dvd/
You can do it!

I'm curious too. about half the price of Simonis.
Comparable items with this large of a price gap makes me wonder.
But it takes a real mechanic to put it back together!

Can you elaborate for us mortals, please?
CPBA Worsted Cloth
80% Australian Wool
20% Nylon
24 oz. per square yard
Not sure what Simonis specs are for 860
From Simonis website
Why worsted cloth? Worsted construction means that there are no short fibers that can release from the cloth to form "pills" or fuzz-balls that have to be removed from the playfield in order to allow the ball to roll straight.
Simonis cloth is incredibly smooth without felt-like fuzziness and Simonis does not wear like nappy woolen cloth which eventually develops tracks or grooves in the cloth, all the while shedding short fibers that constantly need to be removed. With Simonis, ball spin is consistent, and the roll stays straight and true on every shot.
Woolen vs. Worsted = no comparison.

Not a fan of Simonis myself. Wears thin and faster. Goes from v little nap to none.
Great to play on for awhile, till it wears.
