Looking forward to your final results! I want to do the same thing to my table. I was looking at the WPA specifications and they call for a 142 (+1) angle. Currently, I measure 5" opening and 4 3/16" at the throat. The distance between the measurements is 3", coming out to 142.86 degrees. Realistically, the corners are not quite sharp enough for me to claim that level of precision but let's take that at face value for now. These pockets are BRUTAL!!! Would that .86 degree make that big of a difference? Even going to 141 doesn't seem that big of a difference. Currently, a ball hit parallel to the end rail that hits the facing just inside the point will not go in. This isn't a hard hit ball, it would probably barely go the length of the table if hit in that direction. It's amazing what these pockets will spit out. If I align the balls against the nose of the cushion they will go but these pockets are remarkably stingy.
