I'm at a point in the project where all the part's have been stripped of there stain, one of the veneers on a leg pedestal is messed up some under the banding I've removed the ban and working on the veneer , I purchased a ball return system from Ken Hash, still waiting on sending the rails off for work. Not to worry about the Z06 getting hit I move it outside when working on the table the garage is just a work area, I'm enclosing my Patio for the game room, Will attempt to repair the slate when the weather gets a little better. If you have some close up pictures of your slate without the cloth I sure would like to see them so I can get a better idea of how they look so when I attempt to shape mine I'll have something to go by.
Brunswick Anniversary Rebuild
- Thread starter TexanZ06
- Start date
I also decided to assemble the table less cloth just to see what bolts are missing and to get a better picture for a before and after photo I know this might sound crazy, but the room i'st gonna be setup in is not ready yet so really just killing time, and to have something to do since I retired not long ago.
That's a deadly picture....for me at least.
I've been murdered on some Anniversaries....
...and if I drove that car...I'd probably kill my self.
Where you located in southeast Texas?
Do you need me to re-send the pocket geometry photos I took? They had the tape-rule included. Or are you looking for anything else specific? like where holes have been pre-drilled, etc.?
Cool cool. Would love to come play on the table when u get it set up. Im in the Pasadena area.
Sounds good. Thanks
Are you having to fabricate new connector plates after removing the banding?
I know I sent some really close up photos a while back... I can resend those because they show what I believe is what you're looking for.
Did RKC make it out there?
Looks like your doing all the right stuff there--taking your time, thats a good thing. I rebuilt a Cenntenial that's in my basment a few years back. I started to polish all the Aluminium sides and all and gave up after a day or so working on one of the long sides from corner to corner. I checked around in different spots with contacts through my work (I'm a supplier of parts to the Furniture Manufacturers) and thought of a company in Dublin Va, called Electro Plate Right. Old man there well into his eighties and one of the largest plating companies still around. Called him up and asked if he could polish Alum. Told me he sure could, bring some parts by to look at. I had customers in the area and drove by a couple of days later--he looked at the parts and said--Those came off of a Brunswick Cenntinal Pool table--I polished all those parts for Brunswick when they built those tables.
When I got the parts back, they were boxed. When I opened the boxes that the polished parts were in, it seemed like a light bulb was turned on in the box, they were that bright--increadable finish this gent did, set my table off like crazy when all was installed. Sorry for the long and drawn out
