Are you also planing on changing the rubber on the rails and re-beveling the rails to lower the point of the cushion in order to play with snooker balls that are 2 1/16" or 2 1/8" in size? Because that's what you're going to have to do if you want it to play like a real snooker table, as well as changing the rail rubber! You can't just change a pool table that was originally designed for playing pocket pool into a snooker table. If you don't do something to modify the rail rubber height, your snooker game is going to play dead off the rails.

Just something to think about is all.

You are exactly right glen, you know your stuff! a rep point for you!

I purchased "snooker bends" from phoenix billiards online and they are gonna work for me. My table was originally had "snooker cut" wood on the rail ends....and a piece of wood was put on the end to adapt it to american cut pockets. So it has been easy so far to remove the small block on each end, and glue the snooker ends on. thx again
