Pool Table Construction

Every stage of the manufacturing process is responsibly governed by commitment to quality control. From the first design sketch, through years of development, to the final finish touch on the production line, the driving idea behind every table is to keep rewarding its owner, table after table.

Superior Craftsmanship

At the manufacturing plant, the keen-eyed artisans meticulously select only the finest raw materials to begin your masterpiece. Particular attention is paid to matching grain patterns and alternating growth rings to create a beautiful canvas that will stand the test of time. Custom select hardwoods are bonded grain against grain for maximum strength and support. Behind it comes detailed hand-carving, sanding and finishing that are all done by experienced hands. Some of the hand-carving artisans have over 30 years of experience in the field, working hard to create lively details, piece by piece.

Furniture Finish

The meticulously created wood stain finishes emphasize the natural warmth and beauty inherent in each wood species. The state-of-the-art facility utilizes commercial sanding equipment as well as custom made tools to prepare the components for stain. The manufacturer realizes that in order for a piece of furniture to have a great finish, the product must be properly prepared. State-of-art sanding equipment, built specifically to the highest standards ensures only the very finest of finishes. Natural Maple, Medium Oak, Mahogany, Cherry, Honey, and Teak are names of some of the custom blended stains used in these top quality beautiful tables.

Slates

These tables feature the finest true one inch thick slates, adding weight for accuracy and control. The 3 piece slate sets are precisely matched & registered. The top & bottom are diamond honed to ensure a leveled and consistent roll of the balls. The oversized slate extends under the rails so that the rails can be fastened directly to the slate and makes it possible to individually level each piece of slate for obtaining a perfect level every time, thus giving the best possible combination of play. The slate rests on a ¾" solid core liner that is precision-cut, milled, and laminated, providing a quieter game, tighter cloth installation, and a truer playing surface that will endure the test of time.

Frame Works

In addition to the slate liner, these pool tables incorporate a solid-core board slate foundation. The solid-core board is an engineered material that provides a flat level support area for the slate to rest on.

Below the solid-core board is the Uni-frame support structure, which offers the utmost in style and support. The support system uses 1½" thick and 4 ½" tall hardwood beams, utilizing a grid framework used where 2 cross beams run the width with 1 center beam run the length. These beams interlock to one another and are attached using heavy duty brackets. This method of construction ensures maximum stability, keeping the cabinet squared and true forever.

Solid Hardwood Leg Mount

The Corner system takes advantage of the meticulously machined one piece post leg and allows all of the cabinet weight to rest directly on the leg shield. The highest quality craftsmanship incorporates over-sized, mortised leg connecting stop block timbers. It is hard not to notice the size, symmetry and design of these table's legs. Each oversized leg starts with the finest in custom select hardwoods to ensure a lifetime of trouble free support. Then each leg is individually hand carved to create an heirloom quality table. They are individually sanded, finished and sealed to provide a lifetime of beauty.

Wide Profile Rails

Custom wide profile rails combined with Precision-Inlayed, sharp pointed, diamond shaped mother of pearl sights give these tables the quality appearance you would expect from a fine piece of furniture. The Speed Cushions are made from Billiard Congress of America tournament-approved 100% natural gum rubber with no fillers or stabilizers added. They are molded to a k-66 profile with canvas backing. This backing allows the cushion to bond tightly to the rail ensuring that the rubber permanently adheres to the wood. Canvas liners, also known as control fabric, are also on top of the cushion. This control fabric ensures the felt does not loosen or move. At the same time, it controls the action of the rubber for more accurate and consistent play. Live air space, assists the cushion in its ability to control the speed of the ball. It also allows the cushion to breathe from the front to back, maintaining rubber consistency.

Solid hardwood blind rails are permanently attached to the top rails at our factory, with no visible hardware to distract the eye from the beauty of the table. They are designed to deliver optimal ball response. The floating nut plate secures the rail and apron to the slate bed with unyielding torque strength; allowing for exact alignment.
