Interesting. Why do you need six?
Side pocket trim?
I think you're right. I coulda sworn the one I (very occasionally) play on didn't have it on the side pockets but the Google images prove me wrong . . .
All GC's have side pocket trim. You may be thinking of the Medalist. Very similar looking. https://www.pooltableservice.com/product/9-brunswick-medalist-commercial-table/

Question, @realkingcobra may know. The pocket cutouts on the frame (not the slate) were covered with cloth. I'm not seeing the reason why, that will be completely covered with the rails and skirt right? I'm going to clean the glue and cloth fibers off. Just curious.
Done just so you don't see wood down by the drop pocket.

Thanks and I agree. Classic Billiards .net only has 2 sets left and that's the end, they are no longer manufactured.
Note they also have the T nuts for the castings. 4 are required for the corner castings and 2 for the side pockets. My table was missing 4 of these so I ordered them plus a couple of spares when I ordered the castings.

Acetone, and old wash cloth and a truck load of scrubbing its very slow going. About 45 minutes per edge.
Good work. Thanks.

Update: After many hours of effort and barely half way through I tried something else. Klean Strip Premium which removes epoxy and urethane paint. Oh yeah brush on and it turns the contact cement to goo in 15-20 minutes. Scrape off with a putty knife and wipe down WAY faster.
