Has it been 2 weeks? (RKC Install Secrets Revealed)

AZer 'Cuebuddy' drove 1 1/2 hours one way to help with the heavy lifting.

Water melting off the roof turns to ice on the steps. Copious amounts of ice melt affords some traction.

A real mechanic takes adverse conditions in stride.

Pulling a 206 lb. slate up icy steps (with more steps inside) at 8250' altitude is not for the weak.

Bronze GC4 foot resting on RKC designed carpet saver. Additional benefit is no compressing of pad and carpet so leveling can begin immediately.

Leave your metal straightedge and ball bearings at home kidz...this is how it's done.

Roughly 4 more hours to go tomorrow to finish this job up. Does anybody know what the Super Glue is used for?

Simple, yet effective "L" channel at all four corners keeps the sag out.

It will be nice to get the room back in order.

I believe it was Aspen Billiards. It was tons of fun the tables took some getting used to and all three of us dogged shots that we would have normally made but you could blame much of that on the sceanery, it was spectacular;) . If you have never been to Aspen on a Saturday night in the middle of ski season in a very popular bar you don't know what your missing:happydance: Hey Fred if the big guy is still there try to talk him out of 2 extra Simonis spots,one for me (mines getting wore out ) and one for when your new one gets wore out.:thumbup:
 
Where's the rest of the pics I wanna see the finished install.

Athough I'm sure you have been very busy playing :)
 
i owned that box for about 9 1/2 years, it was set up for about 6 years and in storage for 3 years.


its a great table for sure, i played alot of pool on it over the years, i was retired from "the scene" during the time i owned it, just a home player.

i would be dead if i lived where there is that much snow, I couldnt stand it for more than 3-4 days and I would have to leave, I about died at the Derby this year. I'm a beach kinda guy, anything below 70 is a problem.

enjoy your table
