Assuming the cat facings don't swat it back out.Hmmm. I suppose we could use cat gut for the facings. I'm slightly allergic but if I put the ball in the middle of the pocket it won't be a problem.
pj <- too far?

No, I think the cat would actually help based on my research....Assuming the cat facings don't swat it back out.

You can see they are curved...the top is covering it from this view...but you can still see it.Maybe you're being misled by this view where the facing might look like it's curved away from us - but that's an optical illusion caused by the curved top of the cushion (notice that the facing nearer to us looks like it's curved outward).

Here's an overhead view of the same pocket, showing that the facings are flat, not curved:

P.S. It's not uncommon for older pocket facings to be a little concave from being beaten by balls - but these haven't (yet).
I didn't expect such a reference from a pool forum.Schrödinger's facings?

What's "the top"? What is it "covering"?the top is covering it from this view...but you can still see it.
Because you're the local "big brain"?I didn't expect such a reference from a pool forum.
Nice overhead of the pocket. Appears to be 4” at the mouth (front of the facings) and I’d estimate 3-3/4” at the back of the facings. The tight pockets were somewhat cancelled out by the extremely shallow pocket shelves and the new cloth.Maybe you're being misled by this view where the facing might look like it's curved away from us - but that's an optical illusion caused by the curved top of the cushion (notice that the facing nearer to us looks like it's curved outward).

Even if we didn't already know the BS theory about the cat, interweb savvy people have memes to teach them.I didn't expect such a reference from a pool forum.
Athough I am almost sure the only reason any of you know about Schrodinger is because of Big bang theory talking about it.
Cats should not be let anywhere near pool tables - dead or alive. Or both.Schrödinger's facings?

Unless the slate is replaced, reducing the corner pocket openings automatically reduces the shelf depth by half as much - reducing openings by 1” automatically reduces shelf depths by 1/2”. (Doesn’t apply to side pockets.)… those shallow shelves ABSOLUTELY make those tighter pockets play MUCH easier.
Next 3 yrs.I deep shelves suck. However these are too shallow. GC’s have it right.
The side pockets on this box are treacherous.
I haven’t noticed any funny rolls anywhere on the table or big bounces with the cushions or dead bounces.
It doesn’t appear to be a bad table at all. No skids either(which can happen often in Vegas with the dry air) the cloth was pulled properly from what I found see.
Overall while it’s not perfect (what table ever is?) this table ain’t bad. I’d like to see it used again anytime.
Deep shelf’s piss me off, roll-offs even more so.

I get the side pocket measurement, but 110" for corner pockets? Measuring what to what?Just put a tape measure. Side pocket slate edge to edge 50 1/8''. Corner pockets slate edge distance approx 110''.
Is the the contract with Rasson?Next 3 yrs.
Yes, the info was recently on az front page. A 3-year commitment.I get the side pocket measurement, but 110" for corner pockets? Measuring what to what?

Right - shoulda figured...Diagonally....was measurement.
i beg to differCats should not be let anywhere near pool tables - dead or alive. Or both.
