So this is the middle of life, huh? 🤔 It's not what I was expecting. We spent the first half trying to do it "their" way but it didn't work out so well for us. So fuck it. We're doing things our way now. What way is that, you ask? I don't know but we'll figure it out and bring you along for the ride.
Wow! Thanks for a fantastic * informative on 50s kitchen chairs. From removing rust to the upholstery it is perfect. I was at wits end on how to do this. A HUGE thank you
man o man... the number of people who have negative comments are crazy. I like "you might want to blah blah" but hate...no sense in that, anyhow, recovering my pool table right now and really appreciate your help. In fact I can already tell it's gonna look better than the last folks who did it (before I bought it) Thanks!!
Ok most of explanation on RU-vid jump straight way by transferring liquid from one jar to the other. Most viewers do not understand. What the those jar represent? I believe they represent atmosphere and the liquid represents water vaper at specific day and temperature.
We replaced it with cheap fabric from JoAnn's when we got the table in 2019. It was outisde, but under cover, for a year. Then in 2021, we replaced the material again, and that's this video. I don't expect to replace it again anytime soon.
Huh thanks guys this is awsome just what i needed to see a cost efficient and simple yet clean looking finished product will be re doing my table now haha
I'm a table mechanic of nearly 20yrs. great to see when people take on projects. sure its not done professionally but looks nice, suits your needs and saves money hiring someone. good starting point for anyone wanting to try this.
Well, when we made this video two and half years ago, there weren't a lot of pros on here to show us what to do, so we had to figure it out on our own and this is what we came up with. And since all of the other videos on the subject were poorly made and consequently unhelpful, we made this one to help others who, like us, wanted to recover their own table, but aren't pretentious billiard snobs. Thanks so much for the support!
@@HillbillyIslandLife The listing I bought the felt from calls it felt, thousands of people search for pool table felt every month, but I'm sure they're all wrong, and you're right
I published this video before and people accused me of stealing the bottle, so I decided to preempt those comments when I uploaded it this time. Glad to see it worked🙄
The beautiful thing about this vid....it is OBVIOUS that y'all DON'T HAVE A CLUE......tip for next time: you must STRETCH the cloth lengthways before securing sideways(MUST) .....interesting video though
i do a few things differently like i use 3m spray adhesive 90 guess cause its quick and no wait time once you spray you best be ready and i use my DeWalt oscillating tool for the glue instead of a scrapper and i don't glue my rails i just stretch and staple them I use to glue them back in the day but i had to replace a customers rails cause you could fell the glue under the felt in places and hopefully you dampened and stretched the h#ll out of the felt if not you will have to restretch it in a month or 2 when it starts to wrinkle up but everything else we do pretty much the same only thing i would of done if i was you would of been to order all new rails cause once they start coming undone they are shot an needs to be replaced but i do like the Texas longhorn orange felt
You don't junk cushion rubber because it falls off. If the rubber is in good shape, remove old glue and re-glue it. 3M 77 wrong glue for cushions; I use 3M #10 contact adhesive. Also, DO NOT glue fabric directly to the cushion rubber. And if you have glue buildup, you're using too much.
My only suggestion would be to mention the name of products you use, if not leaving a link. So the felt, and the glue. It also wouldn't hurt to mention the make and model of the pool table. Obviously coin op, it's very cool. I know you're retro, but in 2023 it's perfectly fine to name brands. And also, I can't imagine why you would use a color like that. That's very hard on the eyes.
I can tell you why they went with the orange and that's cause its there table and care less what you think about the color of there felt and if you wasn't a noob to pool and actually played you would know exactly what the table is other than the color since 90% of all coin operated tables in the U.S. are valley tables
