This was perfect as a vanity desk for me. ru-vid.comUgkxMAlHv7-BBWMrPRm5-uEoD6rtdT7SG2Qr Especially the glossy finish. Easy to cleanI was looking for something that wasn't the traditional white and with more of a modern feel. This fit the bill beautifully. I put it together with no problems, by myself in under an hour.Make sure you double check where you place the drawer tracks before screwing down. I had one track that needed to be aligned with different holes than the rest.
I could be mistaken but I normally wait 20 minutes for the spray to pretty much dry, even then there's still a bit of residue that I wipe off with a clean cloth before applying the wax/sand .... these videos seem to suggest it's ok to apply the wax/sand directly over the wet freshly sprayed shuffleboard ..... any thoughts please ?
I did this last winter and everything went fine. I am now re-doing this method, I thought the felt loosened from the humidity of this summer, turns out I didn’t staple the rest of one side after doing the pockets 😢. Pay attention to what you’re doing 😂. Great video!
It can be a challenge for sure, that's why we highly recommend using a professional installer for any shuffleboard installation over 9'. You can find one if needed by using the dealer locator on our website for any of our certified dealers across the country.
Well I followed your setup and everything went great. I like how the pockets went. My jibe turned out just like you instructed me to do. Thank You for your knowledge and tips.
Not a bad video series. But there are a number of areas that your installation could be made better based on my 25 years of experience as a billiard mechanic. If you email me I can fine tune your operation.
Q: Am an unfortunate Legacy Billiards pool table owner - came with the house. I am having to replace all the pockets because one has worn out completely (2 times) due to normal use but poor quality materials (naugahyde not real leather). I found some genuine leather replacements online that are #6 iron - but need to determine if these pockets will fit my table. In your experience, will they or how can I verify this info? I have contacted Legacy Billiards several times & they are the ones who sent me the cheap replacements - the other 5 pockets are also naugahyde but have held up without any similar wear & tear. We had a beautiful Olhausen table before - this is crazy. Thx
Well done video, thanks. One of the things I am obsessing over is rail squareness. You mentioned when placing the spot the distance is 44”. I discovered that this is not consistent across the length of my table nor the width. Some of what causes this irregularity on the width is the adjustment of the side rails to make them flush. You don’t seemed to be concerned or check for squareness of the rails to ensure a rectangle and not a trapezoid. Am I being overly concerned about these measurements?
Even though I have a Legacy pool table I checked quite a few videos before the assembly and this series is the best I've seen. Make sure to pull very tightly the felt as this is one of the key.
He makes it look so easy! It’s really not. I suppose if you can wrap Christmas gifts perfectly. You can do this fairly well. I cannot so I’ll have to hire someone for this. Or the wife will be like. “ shouldn’t we have had it done professionally?!” Sometimes saving.a few hundred dollars, really isn’t saving a few hundred dollars.
to stretch felt over a slate top you should have weights clamped to the felt to apply even stretching to each side of the felt. if you don't have even stretching then the felt can play differently on one side or the other.
Oscar winning performance, I've watched just about all the videos here on RU-vid, because it's been 15 years since I did my recovering the last time. I'll probably watch it again before jumping in. Waiting on my new materials from Ebay. And Chris get "best supporting" actor/helper. Thanks very much, I'm also re-rubbering rails, wish you had one for that procedure
Excellent video!! I really like the way you explained why you did things a certain way, very thorough and easy to understand and you made sure whatever you were doing could be seen by the camera.
