Replacing mine for the first time, rubber was welded on so bad but I used a dremel vibrating flat scraper and finished with 80 then 120grit belt sanding. Refinished the wood while waiting for the new cushions and felt and replaced the table markers for spent 45 case heads :) Thanks for the vid, tables are no fun if the rails are dead.
Thanks for putting these videos together. I have a GC1 I restored and ended up keeping the original rails. A guy at my local pool shop said they made better rubber back in the 50's and 60's and so it's possible the original rubber rails are fine on these old GCs. I just cleaned the originals up a bit. There was a little bit of a crusty layer, but with a little water and elbow grease, they cleaned up nice. They may not be super springy, but it seems to be good enough. Like one of your other comments below, I was also concerned about messing up the rail height if I replaced the original rubber.
Yeah tried to leave the old cushions on but glad I went ahead and changed them. It’s easy to make k55’s within the weight spec. 1-3/8-1-7/16. Now the table plays much better
It won’t let me post a picture here. But if you google how to measure billiard cushion profiles. Then go to images, there’s on that shows the measurements on all sides. Great resource! If you can’t find it find me on facebook
@@mulhollenbilliardschannel654 I know gold crown side pockets are 107.5 and corners are 142 degrees. Im wondering how to determine the angle on all tables prior to cutting the rubber
No gold crown 1 and 2’s have cushions that are no longer available. So the east fox is to put k55’s on and just make sure they are mounted at the correct height
@@mulhollenbilliardschannel654, actually had a close friend warn me about buying this table. After 2 months of frustration, I rewatched this video and caught this nugget of info. What angle is it at factory, and what angle should it be when finished?
My side pockets are really tough to make the ball in I have 10’ snooker table o was thinking to change the side rails/cession idk if that’s going to help I can send some photo if you can help with some advise thanks
I have 2 old matching Brunswick coin op tables with oversized cueball. Over the years the rubber has been replaced and it looks like there is 3/4 wide rubber on one and 1inch wide rubber on the other table . Is there anyway to find out what profile was on it originally? I messaged Brunswick they said they didnt sell parts anymore . Its a model d.j. 8ft
thanks for the great video. How do I know what cushion to order of amazon? I have an probably a 60 year old Fischer A25744 table, one thread told me U23 profile cushion should work. How do I know for sure?
Can you message me through my business facebook so I can send you pictures and we can figure it out? facebook.com/profile.php?id=100082532780993&mibextid=PzaGJu
I'm trying to replace the rails on my Cooper coin operated 7' table. It has 4 different rails. The 2 I can identify are HD15 and HL19. I'm guessing HD15 was the original. I have a set of K66, will they work? From what I can tell they will but I can't find anything definite
From what I’ve seen those are Valley copies. So Valley parts fit right up. So I think k66 will “work” but I think k55 will work better. However with being in front of the table I can’t be 100% sure
great video dan, I have a pool table dimensioned table but the cushions appear to be the L77 style snooker... can I switch these over to a more pointed typical 8ball style? as they come in to the pockets the chushions are shaved making the radius quite wide at the pockets, they're basically shaved almost to nothing as they come around the radius of the side into the pocket. Don't know how to explain these corners any better than its not like a straight facing angle on the pockets, they're a really wide rounded corner on either side of the pocket, and the ball tends to rattle a lot in the corners especially
Imo the best option for the money is K55 Championship Tour edition cushions. I’m a dealer and can get them for you along with cloth or any other accessories. 👍🏼
Do you know whether K66 cushions work for a Gold Crown 4 from early 2000 ? We'd like to replace them and nowadays the most widely used pool tables in Europe are the Dynamic 3 with k66 which play quite differently compared to K55 (or at least 20 years old K55 😅😅) Thanks!
No the angles and measurements of a K66 will not work on a GC. I’ve used a bunch and the best bang for your buck is Championship Tour Edition K55 cushions. That’s what’s now on my GC and it plays incredible. If you’d like to support the channel I am a dealer for table repair parts. I can get everything and usually cheaper than the online retailers
I slightly extend the cushion and also change the pocket angle. I then use a thick 6mm shim to reduce the pocket. They play fantastic that way. Honestly no need to extend the sub rail imo. If my method is done properly
Hi, great video. I’m restoring a GC1. Made in 1961. I am to this point. Do I order the K55 super speeds or something else?? Please if you have time give me feedback back. Thank you sir.
All the cushions are very close in performance. If money isn’t an option get atemis or black diamond K55. If you’d like to save a little. Get superspeeds or championship
Thanks for the video. Were the subrails already calibrated to accept the SuperSpeeds? Gold Crown I and II used the old Monarch cushions that were slightly different size. If the bevel is not adjusted on the subrail to accept modern K55 profile cushions, the table will be 1/8" shorter on all rails and it's possible the rail height could be off. If you were tightening the pockets, any reason why you didn't add wood to the subrail and recut the pockets to the desired size?
I didn’t adjust the subrail at all. If you watch the gold crown resto video I said I kept the monarch’s cause I didn’t want to do all the extra work on the subrail, but unfortunately the monarch’s were just to slow. After doing research I’m fine with just doing k55’s instead of adjusting the sub rails. Also I’m not going crazy on tightening the pockets since I do lessons on it. So single 3/8’s neoprene facing will suffice. Thanks for the comment!
I ask b4 about my Brunswick Medalist which has Diamond K-55 and your recommendations for artimas. But my nose height is very high like two pieces of chalk high which seems to slow the rebound. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you and sorry for this being soo long.
Thanks for the video and tips! I am buying an 18 year old Steepleton which is in mint condition other than the rails have dried up. My question is, what type of rubber should be used? Any brands you recommend? I'm looking for the best 'bang for the buck' type. Thanks!

I would suggest staying with the U23. But if you reach out to Ridgeback rails they may have an upgrade kit available for your table. Would be K55’s mounted to wood back rail. Good luck!
I bought a GC1 a few months ago and redid everything like you someone replaced the cushions before I got it I love everything about it except the cushions they are too high 11/2 inches high is there any way to replace them to get the height down without a major operation?
No not really, I was able to do k55 cushions and keep the cushion height within spec. But if someone didn’t know the correct cushions are no longer made it can cause issues. Unfit would be a full cushion replacement again to correct them
Hi Sir. I installed a pool table by myself today. And I found a problem, after hitting a ball into a rail, a ball came back hopping. With your experience may I know what is the problem is? Thank you so much. Hope you see my comment.
The reason it’s happening is the tip of the cushion is to low. That could be happening for a couple reasons. But the quick easy fix is to loosen the rail and shim the rail up higher. Tip of cushion should measure between 1-3/8” and 1-7/16”. Hope that helps. Quick fix is just use washers or something.

@@behnjamin5305 most customers end up happy with Brunswick SuperSpeed k55 cushions and 1 set of 1/4” pocket facings or “shims” . You can get facings either on eBay or classic billiards
My Atlas 8-footer has corner pockets that are unforgiving. Even at pocket speed, they reject shots that aren't virtually perfect. Is there any way to loosen up the pockets so I don't tear my hair out, missing shots that would've gone on most tables?
Sounds like it’s a pocket shape issue instead of a pocket size issue. Best fox is to make the picket 4.5” and try to shape the pocket more like a diamond
@@mulhollenbilliardschannel654 I think you're right, because it didn't start off that bad. It actually got worse after I had some pool repair guys replace the rubber rails.
Hi, could I please get your opinion/help? I have a Gold Crown 3 that is way slow. I replaced the rails 2 and a half yrs ago with Artemis Int Cont 66 (K55) and Simonis 760 cloth. Any suggestions on how I can speed up the table some…perhaps a different cushion or cloth? Humidity here is off the charts, so I suppose that does affect the speed of the table.
Great video. Please help me select the correct bumpers to replace them. I have a 1998 approximately leisure Bay billiards table 8 foot long. The bumper measures 1 3/16 across the bottom and 1 1/8 across the cloth side and 1 1/16 on the rubber side. The bumper has a sticker that says championship, traditional by championship products. The bumper is currently has the cloth side up. When I measured the angle on the table from the bottom side, I got 55°. Bumper point is 1 3/8 above the table top
Nice video. I saw in a comment that you do a lot of lessons on the table, so you did not want to tighten the pockets. Still a little surprised you didn't extend the rails a little to make the pockets more modern. It would be nice to see how you would have done that.
I have a 9’ gold crown that plays terrible. I was told it’s a gold crown ll, but how can I tell between a l or ll. l really need a good table mechanic!
There’s really no difference between gold crown 1’s and 2’s. And unfortunately you really do need a good mechanic to make these play well. Where are you located? I’ll put a feeler out on a private mechanics group. Try to find you a professional

I see you're using DAP WELDWOOD Contact Cement for the rubber rails. My questions are... 1. How Long Did You Have To Wait For The Gluing Process To Dry or Get Sticky Before You Actually Applied The Rubber Rails To The Wood Rail Frame? and... 2. How Long Did You Actually Wait For The Rubber Rails To Stick To The Wood Before Wrapping The Cloth Around The Rubber Rail?
Thought I said in the video, but I go off of the directions on the can. It’s about 10 minutes till it tacks, I got by how it feels too. But if I have the rails at my shot I let them sit 24 hours before I cut the cushions and wrap them. Good luck!
