When you guys are throwing around huge 10k and 20k numbers, are you referring to USD or Australian dollars?
1000 USD = 1373 AUD
The 20k was Australian dollars. Everything is ridiculously expensive here.

Ill probably start a new thread, but which mechanic will find a used Gold Crown (or a comparable 9/10 foot table), bring it to life and ship to Australia? (if I end up going that route)
I can get you a like new GC5, crated up for 4500. You pay shipping.
Hey Goldball - check out this thread if u haven't seen it before - might be handy info in ur research for pocket sizes / specs etc.

FYI - my table pocket specs are.
Mouth 4 11/16
Throat 3 13/16
Shelf 1 3/16
Corner pockets angle measures 143 degrees.
Would be interesting to know what ur mates H&S table pocket specs are. I'm guessing deep shelf & pocket angle greater than 145 degrees perhaps ? (u were saying his pockets don't readily accept hard shots up the rail)
Cheers.
143 miter angles are wide buddy, those are the kind of angles that kick most everything out of the pocket unless it's right down the middle.
mouth size 12.2 cm/4.8 inches
throat size 8.2 cm/3.22 inches
shelf depth 5.4cm/2.12 inches

The wider the pocket miter angle, the more it deflects the object ball across the pocket instead of deeper into the throat.Is 143 degrees really that tough / that unusual ?

Horizontal Pocket Cut Angle: The cut angles of the rubber cushion and its wood backing (rail liner) for both sides of the corner pocket entrance must be 142 degrees (+1).
I'm guessing the (+1) is supposed to mean (+ or - 1 degree) ?
ie. WPBA pocket angle spec is anywhere between 141 to 143 degrees ?
Cheers.

With the aussie dollar very weak compared to the US, getting a diamond pool table in Australia has become very expensive.
Im considering the Canadian made Black Crown 2 table (9 foot or 10), the one Mika Immonen uses for his dvds. Any thoughts on this table compared to Diamonds?
They are willing to make it to any pocket size/angles.
What are the important dimensions I should specify to them for both corners and side pockets?
I dont mind tight pockets, 4.5inch or less, but I dont want the angles or shelf depth to be incorrect so it rattles the balls or the pocket wont accept pots at speed.
