Well I did my first recover this weekend and after hearing about all the hack mechanics out there I thought I would give it a go on my own I have been studying posts in the mechanics section for about a month. This is a Brunswick century covered in Simonis 860 HR Tourney green. Total time installed was about 6 hours I bought the table for $150 and got the cloth for $187 from a friend at the pool hall. I stapled everything due to the fact that Glen has not released the dvd's yet. However I did use his pocket finishing technique which worked out great and only took an extra 15 mins. Sorry about the pics I will take some better ones tonight.Okay FLAME AWAY!

$150 for the table? Do they have another one for that price?
 
No or I would have bought it! I guess that's what happens when you get married the girl or the table. LOL I choose the table ! I will post better pics later again I thought that picture turned out better.
 
It's hard to tell with the blurry photos. I can't tell if there are any wrinkles in the fabric on the underside of the cushion or not. That is one of the hardest parts of installing Simonis on the rails.As long as the balls roll straight and don't jump when they hit the seams of the slate. Keep it up! Barry
 
looks like there is a stretch point at the upper right hand pocket area on the slate, could be the lighting though. I have a couple of uneven stretches on my table and that is what it looks like.
 
I love it looks good plays good. I would do a few things differently but over all I think it does not get much better than the way I have it.:) Thank god for this forum and thanks to everyone who has posted here without this I never would have attempted this on my own.
