My backroom storage area sometimes floods a few inches :angry:, and thus most stuff I have in there are up on cinder blocks. The slate (from a 1989 Brunswick Hawthorne) has been elsewhere up until now, but now I need to stash it in that area - and of course, lifting and keeping the slate stable in there is pretty much an impossibility. It seems to me that the slate material would not get damaged from flooding - would it?
BTW, before I noticed the flooding, I had a few wooden pieces of that table get flooded, but it seemed to dry out well. And the assembled table experienced flood waters of about 4" high during Hurricane Katrina (it was on the *2nd* floor of my home
), but seemed to make it through OK.
I don't have it assembled as I don't have room for it in my current small home (well, I would in my garage if I removed the pinball machines there.) Whenever I get a new home with a proper game room (sized to have 21 pinball machines around it
), I plan on getting a new table that doesn't rely on nails to hold in the pocket cups - something that has always bugged me about this table. :angry: :angry:
