Hello. A few of the pockets on my pool table have tears, I think I can order the six pockets from Amazon. Do you have any videos on how to change just the pockets? Thanks.

perfect！

If i don't have staple can i use glue for this?

that was so professional, Great video

Great job. I like to learn it from your teaching of how to replace new parts to it. So, I need to buy some slates to build a pool table for me. Because I like to build it to make my favor come through. But I don't know where to buy the slates. So, do you know who or where I can buy some from. Please tell me, I appreciated it. Thank You.

Thank you for all this information on pool table installations. It has helped tremendously 🙏 I have one question that would help me out greatly if you have the chance to respond. I've been helping out my local pool hall installing new cloth and we've been installing the Simonis 760. After doing the stretch indexing, we end up with a stretch from side to side of 2.5". Minus the .75" we end up with 1.75" working index. When it comes to the ends of the table, I'm able to stretch both ends at least 3+ inches, at both ends even when one end is stretched and anchored. We install the cloth dry, no water at all. I'm sure it's user error on my side, but I'm wondering if the ends should be able to stretch that much over the side to side working index? Or is it more important to just stay within the stretch index numbers regardless if the cloth can stretch passed that? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you again for you all your input.

In my experience, just a dab of Permatex anti-seize on each rail bolt, and say goodbye to junk T-nuts. Really helps when you know that you are the guy that will be doing all the work in the future.

What’s a good set of pro cut aftermarket rails to buy for a 1990 Valley model 93 table?

Does this have the pro-pocket ridgebacks? I heard they have springier rubber on them.

less staples is better th-cam.com/video/FIDWQYbrHlA/w-d-xo.html

I cannot find your glue anywhere! Will 3M neoprene contact cement 10 work well?

What’s your opinion about adding 3mm or 5mm facings to existing facings to tighten pockets instead of extending cushions and at extra time and money. Is a 3mm plus addition 5mm too much and will change the correct acceptance of the pocket or do able? Thx

Great video. Are you always giving back 3/4" regardless of cloth or slate width?

Hello, I am curious to know the effects of having a gap in the bottom of the rail and the slate. I just got a table installed and two of the sides have this issue. I notice that compared to the other sides, the ones with this gap make a much louder noise. While the rebound is okay (ish), I'm mostly concerned about how big of an issue this is if there are gaps as mentioned in the video.

Hi, Thanks for a Great vid. It will help a lot. I have a 8ft table. With the rails removed my side pockets measure 6 inches along the side of the table and a depth of 3,5 inches. Is this a full size pocket, meaning i should give it a slack of 13/16 of an inch on the anchor side and 5/8 of an inch on the stretch side? Greatfull for any reply.

well I just copied your method and cutting in the middle pockets was as easy as can be, Best method I have seen , thanks a million for posting such a great tutorial video,

Unable to find your glue to redo my table

What kind of cloth is this?

Torque on rails ? What if u have a dead rail ?

Watching your great videos and for someone like me, I could understand it better if you made a video with a mirror image. Just like you see it I think it easier to do. Just my opinion. I love the glue on rail method lots better than all those staples. Thanks Cobra!

how big is the side rail bolt for a socket? I want to adjust mine at my local bar and bring the right size

Awesome video, just what I was looking for

What kind of roller!

You are awesome I so wish someone could give me info on tightening my pockets on an old 9 foot table. My corners are 5 and sides are 6 inches and just buckets. You’re the absolute best and I would love your input. I’m so disappointed in the table Balls drop that shouldn’t. Could my angles of the rubber be incorrect

Just to make sure I heard correctly. Side pocket measurements are half of 13/16 for first side. Then half of 5/8 for the streatch to side.

Thank you for the video! Do you know of any good table mechanics in the Los Angeles area?

Great work! What spray did you used?

Just got my used table set up by a local shop. The middle slate has chips on the middle of the play areas around 0.4” depth and 2” wide. They claimed that beeswax is all good as a filler ?

What's the glue his using?

So awesome cobra thank you, I watched both of your tutorials and was amazed by your quality workmanship. Just freaking awesome bud thank you. I picked up so much knowledge.

He is the best on pool tables

He is the most knowledgeable person in his field. Thank you

@RKC, does the pyramid technique work on traditional home tables?

How’s much to fly to Dallas to do my table ?

Followed your directions and my Pro-am looks amazing. Thank you.

O Nine Ball aqui no Brasil é fraco, mas eu estou me preparando para a liga profissional. Vou fazer minha própria mesa pq aqui no Brasil não tem mesa de Nine Ball

The best there Is! COBRA is a really great guy. He's always available if one has a question. Thanks buddy!

Thank you, King Cobra. Now I know how to do the rails correctly I can get on with my recover project. I had a so-called professional guy recover my table, a no-name but solid and well-built item, and the results were unusable for serious play. He failed to refill the bolt holes that were an unusual feature of my slate, so that there were several 'dips' along every rail that a ball could settle into. He also completely screwed up one side rail recover so badly there was a folded staple sticking up at a side pocket. I had to buy more cloth to fix it myself. He promised to return and re-do the job right, but instead he dropped out of sight, and I never called him, either, because I didn't trust his work anymore.

How do you get the bondo out to remove the screws when taking it back apart?

never put the glue near the corners ! Only use strong duct tape at the corners from underneath. This guy doesn't shoot pool, he doesn't know! that glue on the corners creates a ledge, and the ball won't roll into the pocket at pocket speed... when you put glue like that, and then stretch the cloth, when the cloth moves, it brings the glue up to the edge with it ! and now you will have 1mm of glue bead at the top edge of the corners ! enough to stop a slow rolling ball. Let people that actually shoot pool for real help you! they are the ones that will be affected

Hello king cobra. Simonis 760 valley table is the same measures thanks

What glue do you use for the rails and table felt?

Great job, I learned a better way than I had been doing it! Thanks

You are the best on the internet. I did an amazing job, thanks to all of your guidance. I can't wait to do it again. I searched for months looking for direction and sir you are hands down my favorite

Great video, & work done. Im going with putty over beeswax.Q? What grit did you sand with?

Had he torn that tournament cloth, I would have left the room...😮😮😮
