Anyone have trouble with the Kim Steel pockets coming loose? The room where I play has 8 KS tables, and they're always having trouble anchoring the pockets. Some of them --especially the side pockets-- tend to fall out onto the floor. Is this common? What's the fix?

Thanks~

Find another billiards technican to recover the tables, because the one that recovered them last don't know how to attach the pockets...what else don't he know?

Where on the pockets do the screws attach them to the table? Thanks~ Doc
 
On the sides of the pocket below and behind the point of the side pocket I'll see if I can get a pic
 
ive seen this happen b4 with kim steeles, dunno why except the pockets i saw come out usually had these tiny finish looking nails holding them in. My ks has screws in the corners of each pocket holding it in

Thanks a million, Strokerz! The picture is a little blurry, but I take it that the white circle is the screw or nail head.

Best regards~

Thanks very much for the pics, SC. Are those the original placements of the screws (top & bottom), or were they improvised?

Doc
 
they were improvised, originally it had small nails in the pockets and up on top into the rail, now it just has 2 screws per pocket
