In Search of.....

[TheTablePro]

Have a customer in need of a full set of 8' Brunswick Bristol I or II rails. I assembled & attempted to recover a Bristol this week and the particle board rails crumbled from dry rot when I took the cloth off. Imagine that! Please PM me or shoot an email to: service@thetablepro.com if you know where I can source a set. Already tried Ken at Classic Billiards and struck out.

Thanks greatly!!

Robin,
I have run into a similar problem several times in the past my solution was this, I took a router and milled out a 1x2 inch section the length of the rail, then I took a piece of poplar glued an clamped it to the housing,and you can actually use as large a piece as you wish just depends on your preferance or untill you get to solid surface where you get good adhesion for the glue and if you have a table saw you can precut your angle.I did a lot of old GC 1 this way after they have been recovered for 30+ years the underside gets in really bad shape from the thousands of staples that have been pulled also you can go back with MDF if you prefer it glues very well,I hope this info may be a solution for your situation,good luck in your search if not.:grin:
