Brunswick Monarch snooker table move

In this post we moved a Brunswick Monarch snooker table from Cherry Hills to Fort Morgan Colorado. Brunswick used 1.5 inch slate on their snooker tables and outside of a single slate table, this is the heaviest slate in the field.

As we began disassembling the table there was a lot of wood damage on the rails. And because the customer didn't want any restoration work done, we couldn't do anything but take extra care when removing the felt and packing the rails for the move.

We brought along Eric's cousin Mike to help with the slate. There are three pieces and each weighs approximately 450 pounds.

After moving the table to the new location, we reassembled it in it's new home. Because the slate is so heavy, the job of shimming is much easier and quicker. Once we had the frame built and the the table was level, we put on the new felt.

The pockets are much more shallow on a snooker table which helps to give it a cleaner look.

The final task was to draw the D on the table and rack up the balls.

It turned out really well, and the clients were extremely satisfied.

Rowe AMi vinyl jukebox

Here we moved and set up an old Rowe AMi jukebox for a customer in Fort Collins, Colorado. This was an old vinyl jukebox that was in really good shape. There were only a few missing lights and everything worked well.

During the move, we removed both doors and i snapped a picture of the turntable.

Pool table felt - Valley bar box tables

In this post we recovered 2 Valley bar box tables in a social club in Denver. The cloth was in really bad shape. Here you can see that there were multiple tears in the surface from masse and jump shots.

The first step is to remove and strip the rails.

Once the rails are stripped, it's time to replace the felt. the felt on bar box tables is glued on and secured with staples. We found that 3M super 77 is the best spray glue for the job.

Once the rails are finished, it's time to replace the table felt. The slate is pretty heavy so it takes 2 people to pull it out the the bar box. Once it's removed, we strip the cloth off and clean the surface with water.

Now it's time for cloth. The bed cloth is attached with glue; we run a pretty heavy strip of glue around the whole table and stretch the felt into place. Once the bed cloth is down, we finish the pockets. Here, we cut strips into the pocket area with a razor blade, spray glue it and attach it to the table. We found that duct tape can help keep the ends from coming loose.

Once the table top is complete, it's time for the easy part...put the table back together.

World of Leisure Assembly

World of Leisure pool table assembly. We built and recovered the table with new felt. Nothing unusual wiht this table so I included some pics of the finished table. The pockets and rails turned out really good.

Tornado foosball table service

Here we serviced a tornado foosball table. There were 6 broken men and 2 handles needed to be replaced. We also cleaned up the playing service, cleaned and lubricated the bars.

The men and the handles are attached with pins which are removed using a special tool from Tornado.

Once the new man is replaced, any broken pins are swapped with new ones.

The Pins are hammered in and countersunk using the tornado tool.

Brake cleaner works great at cleaning the bars and removing any gunk on the table.

Anderson Originals 8 foot pro

Here is a Colorado pool table move of an Anderson Original 8 foot pro. The 8 foot pro has a playing surface 4 inches larger than an 8 footer. As you'll see, this table needed a little work. The original installer did some damage to the table that needed to be repaired and it needed new rail rubber.

As you can see, when we removed the rail felt, the rubber bumpers were detached in several places. It was also pretty stiff and our recommendation was to replace the rail rubber.

The next hurdle was some poorly installed pocket liners. There were probably 50+ staples in each pocket and the original cloth was left completely unusable.

The next issue was the previous installer used Bondo on the seams and the slate screws. You can also see how one of the slate screw holes had a chunk of slate missing. This left a crater in the playing serface which needed to be filled.

We got out the bees wax, filled the seams and repaired the damage to the slate.

We finished up the table with new felt and took the rails to the shop for the new rubber. The assembly was completed a few days later.
