I wasn’t planning on making a restoration thread so I didn’t take detailed photos of all the work as it progressed, but I’m going to post everything I have.
Having said that, I want to express my sincere appreciation to Rexus (Scott) for his patience and willingness to answer my many questions throughout this process. I’m sure those who know him are already well aware of his character and the kind of person he is, but I’d like to take a moment to reaffirm that. Scott, thank you again for all your support. It’s truly appreciated.
Now, on to the table itself. While it may not be a showroom-quality restoration, I’m genuinely pleased with how it turned out, especially considering this was my first experience restoring a Gold Crown. As far as the k55 cushions, it doesn’t bother me regarding the pitch and angle of the cushions to the table. After playing on it that may change, but I can also fix it in the future if I decide it needs it. It’s been a learning experience, and overall, I’m proud of the results.
GC1 Table - $700
Simonis 860 - $300
K55 Cushions + all labor - $500
Paint + Powder Coating - $350
Decals - Made with Cricut - N/A
Meucci Shaft Reduction - $50
With table completion and cue work, I’m all in for $1900. I’m satisfied with that. I do wish it had the skirts and a ball return, so if anyone has any leads, please let me know.
