Brunswick Centennial ready for action

[perfectpocketz]

I just converted this Brunswick Centennial 5x10 snooker table.....to a 5x10 pool table...4.5 corner pockets....The tables in Cocoa Beach, Fla. where live streaming going to take place soon. I did a complete restore from top to bottom on this table.

Very cool! Great work as usual, Mark. :thumbup:

Wow, now thats the 57 Chevy of pool tables.
Very nice job.

 

[chevybob20]

Very nice. Outstanding shine on the aluminum.

Sweeeeet....

I got the same table. Had it converted little over a year ago. My pockets are 4 and a 1/8 ( were suppose to be 4 :angry: ).
A couple questions if you dont mind. I need new pockets yours look pretty flush with the corner castings were might I get some. And how the hell do you get the metal to shine like that. I bought some mothers polish but it didnt work anything close to that good.

 

[Mowem down]

Damn that is nice.... did I say that already...lol.

 

[thommy]

Great work as always!

Awesome table! Your pictures really show off the Rosewood. Something that makes these tables real special IMO.

 

[Mark V]

Mark, another beauty! Seeing these makes me want to with a centennial instead of another anniversary on my next go round. I'll call ya when the time comes.

Great looking job Mark. Now come on back from Florida and set up my table

You can call Joe at Arura Road Billiards at 800-940-2837 and tell him you need Gold Crown 4 pockets....He will help you out.....My little helper gave up on me halfway through the set-up...LOL
The aluminum was a lot of work...sanding and buffing.

What Mark didn't mention, is the 4 months and 100's of hours he invested into building this table into the table it is today, and for me to say that I respect Mark's work is an understatement, Mark IS a true craftsman and a REAL pool table mechanic. I talk with Mark more than I talk to anyone else because we're always talking about working on pool tables and sharing ideas, I consider him to be like one of my own brothers, and I have the highest respect for his work as I KNOW what it takes to build out a pool table like this:grin:

Lets see if I picked up enough from the posts and in person tables to identify the rubber from the nose radius... Is it correct these are not the K55 profile Artemis? The nose radius looks too sharp for the Artemis K55 from the picture.

What a beauty, and a nice arena as well. Must be planning some serious streaming in the future...

I didn't like how this finish on the rails came out....so I redid the rails 2 more times.
The cushions are the Artemis 55 intercontinental....the rail cloth is put on correctly...and tight.....all new wood under the rails and new sub-rails.
The table plays so good....and no thud when the balls hit the rails.
Some before pics....table should have been put in the dumpster...LOL
You can see the front of the cushion...it's the artemis 55 intercontinental.

That is one sweet looking table. Very nice job!

Ahh, thank you. My eyes need further training...

Would you care to share the backstory on why the 10' GC was removed, and replaced with this table? I understand if its private...

Really don't know what happened between Mike and Gary....but I also set-up a GC1 down stairs on the first floor. I did the conversion on the rails from snooker to pool...and the set-up.
