Most of your videos are first class.
Great video with great details! The only critique, that I've seen in other videos, that I believe finish off the table slightly nicer inside the pockets is placing pocket liners in place so you don't see the substrate in between the slits. Otherwise, that was one great video showing the adhesive method!!
Usually I do put liners in. However, Brunswick didn’t exactly make the table in a way that would have made that possible. The wood sat back a good 1/2”.
Brunswick was notorious for cutting corners back in the 70’s and 80’s. This table was no exception.
Thanks for the compliment though!!!
Dang !!! I could have watched that for another 10 minuets. Very very good.
I'll be adding more!
That was really cool! Ive never seen how a billiards table was put together. Just to make the job look extra sharp I'd wipe off any hand or fingerprints from the wood before doing the reveal shot. I'm looking forward to more of these vids!😀👍🏼
Those finger prints were actually embedded into the finish of the table. Believe me, I would have if I could have.
Gotcha! I should've realized as much bc of your awesome shoe dying and beautifully sewn shoe bags. Besides, Steve wouldn't recommend a schlub who leaves fingerprints in the finish!😀👍🏼👏🏼
Being that you have experience in doing this kind of work are sportcraft pool tables made to be refelted if so how do i refelt the sides cause that removable trim that holds felt in place while you stretch it does not come out on sportcraft if you can guide me on what to do please
Why do you staple the tabs for the pockets underneath instead of using screws?
I see on this table you only used adhesive spray and not staples for the table felt. Is there a reason to only use spray or staples?
Excellent video. Do you bother removing the old spray glue from the slate before gluing down the new felt?
Sometimes. Depends on how many times it's been covered and how thick the glue is. Usually, you can get away with 5-7 coverings worth of build-up before you have to clean it all off again.
My table is a 9’ Heirloom just like this one
I have slate leveled
Rails covered
Ready to install bed cloth
Bought Proline cloth since I couldn’t get the Simonis HR
Do you have this video in normal speed or can you post it in normal speed please?
That cloth didn’t seem to be put on tight enough, a little more stretching needed I think.
I’d like to see this done with a heavy duty staple gun that isn’t pneumatic.
What brand and model of table was that? I have one exactly the same but is missing the Plate that shows the model and brand on mine
That's a Brunswick Heritage table. It was made either in the 70's or early 80's.
These are the pockets I'm looking for My pool tables was bought in 1970 and my pocket are in bad shape they are the exact ones on this table want to keep my original pockets or find someone who has a set to sell like these 🙏
Was that duck tape on the edges or some other tape. Curious and why. Also what type of cloth.
Yes. It's duct tape. That's fairly common to do on a glue-down type cloth. The duct tape acts as a bit of extra insurance that the glue won't fail.
At one time I was using 3M Super 74 Foam Fast Adhesive for all of my glue-down tables. That's back when a 20 ounce can could be bought for $12 or so. They have since raised their price to close to $40/can. So, we've moved over to their 3M 90 spray adhesive (about $10/can). It isn't quite as good as the 74. But, it still works very well. And, since switching to the 90, we've started using the duct tape as well. Again, it isn't uncommon.
The cloth we put on this customer's table is Championship Invitational cloth with Teflon.
Do you ever have to travel to do these tables
Sometimes.
Usually though, I try to keep it within a 100 mile radius.
As a new subscriber to your channel, I thought I'd make a request and comment. First, I'd like to see a video with cloth recommendations and comparisons. I think I'd like Simonis 860 on my standard 8', but I do see substantially less expensive options and since this is a DIY, I'll risk $100 screw-up before a $350(ish). There are a lot of options and maybe you have some good input, caveats. I would never have anything other than worsted wool blend and don't care about Teflon. Anyone spills a beer/wine on my table just bought a recovering - or a beat down.
I was also wondering, if you might have an opportunity on those Brunswick tables to offer your customer a small upgrade. Have on hand some OSB or plywood augments to those corners, you could set with 5 minute epoxy. Make it a $50 upgrade and do those corners the way you would want them. If you only do 3-4 a year, then forget it. If you do 20-30, maybe think about it.
Anyway, I do appreciate your videos and wish you the best.
How do I put the diamonds on my handmade pool table?
You'll have to inlay them. Check out this video that shows the process.

How long did it take you
About 2-1/2 to 3 hours.
Why couldn't you cut the the slits in the pockets not so high? (I've seen your replies about Brunswick pockets) But I'm not understanding how that affects the cuts.... Lower cuts would result in wrinkles..?
The lower the cuts, the harder it is to make the cloth "bend" down. If you cut too low, you end up with a void between the slate and the cloth.
Typically, especially on newer tables, the radius of the corner pockets is larger. Thus, making it possible to do the corners without having to cut any release cuts. Side pockets still need release cuts though. But, on older Brunswick tables, Brunswick wasn't as concerned with having the wood slate liner flush with the slate itself. That's a huge problem for doing very clean upholstery work. Newer tables don't have that problem.
If you watch my latest video on recovering a table, you'll see that it can be done VERY cleanly!
@@CreativeRestorations Thank you for the reply. I'm a trim carpenter planing to build a table and want to understand all I can.... I have plenty of confidence in the woodworking part but was told the felt could be a trick if not done right. It seems pretty straight forward, it's just the progression of the steps that seem most critical. I plan on stapling, Any tips you might have would be appreciated.
This is my video on how to recover a table. Watch this video several times!
th-cam.com/video/Suu7SbG_ol0/w-d-xo.html
Watch it in slow motion if you need to.
The one thing that's impossible to convey through a video is, how much tension to put on the cloth. It is tricky to put cloth on. The amount of tension, the folds, and the correct sequence is all necessary to achieving a good result.
Don't be too hard on yourself if it doesn't come out exactly perfect. There really is a reason why I get paid to do what I do. It takes YEARS of practice to get good at upholstery.
@@CreativeRestorations Thank you, I will.
I'm fortunate to have the ability to learn things easily by watching and an understanding of how and why things are done the way they are.(not boasting)
I've done some pretty elaborate high end trim work. I have a video (I DID THAT) with some pretty cool stuff, you could check it out if that kind of thing interests you....
Thanks again, I will definitely watch that video. Have a good one brother.
Points off for the finger marks 😕😂
Normally I'd agree with you. But, those were imbedded in the wood. Looked as though they had been there for decades.
Need to learn to stretch the cloth better so you do t se the slate when you get the pockets done.
Please, make a video and show me how it’s done. I’ll be waiting for your reply with your link.
You made that look too easy…. I know my attempt would have a different soundtrack running😢
Judicious use of fast speed with real time of critical parts with comments would actually be useful. This is not.
Where EXACTLY in the title or description of this video do we say that this is a "how-to" instructional video?
You want to know how to recover a pool table? I've got videos posted just for that. Maybe you should check out the whole channel before making your comment.
Also... Rather presumptuous of you to think that I owe you anything of value - especially considering the fact that most of my videos do just that and FOR FREE. I don't believe that you've paid me for anything of value that's been imparted to you (or anyone else, for that matter). So... PISS OFF FOOL!
