Hello, not sure if this is the place to post this but I will use this to post and update my journey into getting a pool table for my living room. I bought this on 11/26 from a wonderful lady in NJ and finally got it home today on 12/3. It was a bear! My father in law, brother in law and I did the move. We had a huge problem when leaving the house bc my brother in law's dodge van (which was old) suffered a broken axle or something like that on the way out of the driveway (They only had the wooden bed and legs. I had the slates in my odyssey). Thank god it didn't happen on the highway. Anyways for my first post in this journey, I wanted to share the following two pics: I believe the slate is 7/8 inch each and if I am not mistaken about 150 lbs each. Can someone confirm that for me? It is about 51 inch by 32 inch each. My next goal is to clean and refinish the wood so it looks new and glossy! I got tournament blue simonis and the rail and bed DVD videos to help me set the cloth right. I will keep this thread updated as to my progress. Thanks for reading! -Charlie
