Just wondering/hoping someone has a line on an original ball return system used on the Centennial table. Trying to get a table back to full original.

Thanks

Maybe someone can tell me if a gully system from a GCIII will work on a centennial?

I've read that anniversaries and centennials will use gold crown return systems. They seem to have the same slates and same frames, not sure if they use the same pockets, but that should be easy to look up.

Contact classicbilliards.net who sells parts for all these tables and ask them. If anyone knows they will.
 
Yes, a gold crown return can be adapted to a anniversary or centennial but i believe the op stated he is looking to restore with original which is a one piece fiberglass system. They were very fragile, so it will be a tough find.
 
I am probably wrong on this, but I believe I heard that the one piece(per side) figerglass return system is too bulky/fragile to ship, if found. More a local pickup item. Probably wrong.

Something makes me think that later model centennials and anniversaries may have converted to GC type wire return systems although the sizing and entry to ball box may require modification.

Ken Hash/classicbilliards is the guy to ask.

good luck with your project

If they are to fragile to ship, how did they get to the final location for installation??? :grin:

On a serious note, it wasn't the first time I heard that so I will just have to see. Seeing as how they are one piece they would be pretty long to fit a 9' table. I got a line on one so time will tell.
