Hey everyone. I've read a fair amount on azbillards.com and I appreciate the wealth of knowledge. I just bought a used Olhausen 8-foot 3-piece slate table, and I have three questions
1. Does anyone know how old this table is? The seller said it was about 10 years old, but there's a date written on the inside of the cabinet referencing 1987.
2. When I broke down the table, the slate had quite a few scratches on it. They're pretty shallow. I asked the seller about them and he said they didn't affect play at all. I was thinking I'd fill them with Bondo, but I'm wondering if I shouldn't worry about the scratches since they're so shallow. I've rolled a ball across them, and they don't appear to affect the ball at all.
3. Finally, I'm installing the table upstairs, and I'm thinking of using Bondo to seal the seams. Since the table will be upstairs, the floor will have a little bounce to it at times, and bees wax may come undone. Is Bondo a good choice.
Thanks everyone.
