My best friend just lucked up on a pool table for FREE! That's right free!
I haven't had a good look at it yet but I know its not a Brunswick GC. Possibly an older Olhausen.
At any rate, seeing as how I will probably be over there clocking in more time on the tabel than anyone else who lives there , I figured I would surprise them and foot the bill to restore the table (provided it doesn't break my bank).
I am by no means a table mechanic and not sure what I should be looking for, but I know it needs new felt, new pockets and it leans to the left a little.
Before I start calling around, can anyone tell me:
1. How much should I expect to pay to re-felt the table?
2. The table is stored in the garage, so is there a particular type of felt that will hold up better to dramatic changes in weather (humid as hell during the day & cold at night)
3. Any table mechanic recommendations in SoCal? San Diego to be exact.
4. Any maintenance trouble spots I should make the table owners aware of?
Thanks for the help!
