Real King Cobra hits New Orleans

I like working on pretty much any kind of quality built pool table, but my favorite is the Diamonds, the Professionals to be more direct, because I like to refinish them while I'm rebuilding them. It's like taking an F- student and turning them into an A- student. What I mean by that is yes, the play ability is for sure better on the Diamond's, but the LOOK is so much more improved overall, that it looks like a new table when it's finished. I even go so far as to install carpeting behind the leather drop pockets so you don't hardly hear a sound when a ball gets pocketed, and on this table I redyed the leather pocket liners to look like new as you can see in the pictures. It takes time to refinish a table like this one, stained twice, and 7 coats of tung oil for the finish. But, it's what I enjoy doing

Give me a shout when your near the grand canyon buddy. 
When?????? every week you say you have one more table left and your on your way with my table,and the next week it`s the same story,and this has been going on since April 13th.,2011. Glen either ship it,or deliver it,I just want my table. I paid for it,and paid you for a service that you are not completing.

Ian, I finally delivered and set up the 7ft ProAm I told you I had to get done, what a job. Had to cut the slate in half, then steel plate join it back together again so I could still use the leveling system, and I added some trick trim to the bottom of the body between the legs all the way around to kind of break up the box look of the table and kind of picture frame it a little bit. Had to take out the 7ft Gabriel's Signature Pro from upstairs also to make room for the Diamond to go in. I'm trying to get back to the factory as quick as I can so I can get you your table, but if you'd like I'll again find out how much the shipping of the table to you up in Canada will run, but last time I asked about the cost, it was going to be about $200 maybe a little bit more than the $800 you still have left owing. I'll call Brian on Monday and see if we can schedule a date for shipping if I can't be turned around by next weekend headed back. I'm turning down jobs just to cut my time short, turned down 7 jobs alone in Kenner, LA while I was working on the Diamond there at the Corner Pocket. I only have a few things left to get done, one if them is to move Billy Incardona's 9ft ProAm/3 piece slate into another loft where he lives, I really don't want anyone else touching his pool table....you can understand that I hope

Nice pups!
Very nice pups! I assume bull mastiffs. A friend had one named James. James was trained to go to the door and bark when the door bell rang but overall a sweetheart when he knew you. Mr. Hagen's shop and office were at his home and we were working on several projects together so it made sense that I be on good terms with James. Normally Mr. Hagen gave James a treat after he barked but he started having me give him the treat after I was inside. Soon James quit barking when I rang the doorbell, refused to bark regardless of encouragement.
Once I was inside and could get to the treat barrel then James would bark! No sense wasting breath and effort when I couldn't give him a treat anyway.

Hu, you ever get over to the Corner Pocket to try out that Diamond I rebuilt?:grin:
Glen
I don't go there
Glen,
I would like to but Jamie annoyed me one time too many and I vote with my wallet, I don't go to the corner anymore. I know that you didn't tighten any up that much at Buffalo's but I heard you recovered one table and recovered and tuned one. Which one did you tune?

Sorry to hear that buddy, up at Buffalo's I just recovered the ProAm near the bathroom, and leveled the other one. One of these days I might make a trip back there to work on some of the other Diamond's, who knows
